Prepare for Foundation Drainage and Lay Geotextile Fabric

What happens here

Following the completion of the main grading, the area immediately around the house foundation was prepared for its final landscaping. This involved ensuring a consistent and appropriate slope away from the house, maintaining a critical 8 to 10-inch clearance between the building's sill plate and the soil surface. After achieving the desired grade, a black geotextile fabric (often called weed barrier) was carefully laid along the perimeter to suppress weed growth and provide a stable base for the decorative river rocks.

Goal: Establish proper drainage and weed control around the house foundation.
