Erosion and Drainage Control in Northeast Louisiana

Keep Your Landscape Safe, Dry, and Beautiful—No Matter the Weather

Standing water, soggy yards, or shifting soil can wreak havoc on your property if not addressed early. That’s where Creative Landscapes comes in. With over 20 years of experience in Northeast Louisiana, our team specializes in custom drainage and erosion control solutions that protect your investment and enhance your outdoor space.

Whether you’re dealing with runoff from heavy rain, poor grading, or natural soil erosion, we’ll design a system that works with your land—not against it. We proudly serve homeowners and businesses in Monroe, West Monroe, Ruston, Sterlington, Downsville, Bastrop, Rayville, and the surrounding areas.

What’s Included in Our Drainage and Erosion Control Services

Every property is different, and our approach is never one-size-fits-all. We’ll assess the unique needs of your land and offer practical, lasting solutions such as:

French Drains & Catch Basins
These underground systems collect and redirect excess water away from foundations, patios, and gardens.

Grading & Re-sloping
Proper grading ensures water flows where it should, preventing pooling and long-term structural damage.

Downspout Drainage Extensions
We extend your gutter system underground to keep water from dumping near your home’s foundation.

Dry Creek Beds & Decorative Swales
These natural-looking features add charm to your landscape while managing water runoff efficiently.

Erosion Control Fabric & Retaining Walls
We use heavy-duty geotextiles and build retaining walls where needed to stabilize soil and prevent washouts.
