Washington is famous for its wet climate. While this makes everything green and lush, it also makes everything muddy and slick. This is in its natural state, of course. There are things you can do to ameliorate this problem in those areas where it really matters.
Planting ground cover can make a difference in many places, but not anywhere that is subject to foot or vehicle traffic. For that, you need a supply of good old rock from a gravel company in Newport, WA. The beauty of using gravel is that it doesn’t slough off the water onto some other surface. Instead, the water seeps down beneath the impermeable rock that comprises the gravel and soaks gently into the subsurface. This prevents channeling and increased erosion of your property.
Gravel is also a lot easier to apply than just about anything else. If you want asphalt or concrete on your sidewalks or driveway, you have to do a lot of site prep and spend a fair amount of money just getting things ready for your finish surface to be applied. If you use gravel instead, there’s not much more to it than dumping a big pile of rock and spreading it out with rakes and shovels.
You can certainly prepare your subsurface if you want to, but many people prefer to just get the job done and stop trudging around in the mud.
