Rain water harvesting earthworks include the design and installation of ponds, swales, diversion trenches, and other water catchment tools.
The purpose of installing rain water harvesting tools is to capture and store water for personal or recreational use. Rain Coast Earthworks uses earthworks to design a sloped landscape to move water from one area in a landscape to another. This is done through the use of excavators to dig and shape the land. In some circumstances, soil and gravel are brought onto the job site to build areas of the land up.
Using earthworks to shape the land to capture and store water is a tool used in our climate to increase water availability during the drier Summer months. This abundance of water during the Summer can be used for irrigation of lawns, gardens and recreational enjoyment.
Here are a couple videos from other areas about what Rain Water Harvesting Earthworks can look like.
