About this Service
Seminole Heights bocce installations are tailored for mid-century bungalows and corner lots where clay-rich soils and urban elevation changes affect drainage. This service suits homeowners converting small yards into dedicated play spaces without losing garden or parking areas.
Clay-rich soils in the Heights hold water and can cause puddling unless drainage is addressed. We start with a site assessment that looks for low spots and recommends sub-surface drains or slight base elevation where needed. The base system typically includes geotextile, compacted crushed stone, and an oyster-shell or crushed wearing course chosen for consistent roll in humid conditions.
Expect trade-offs on corner lots: compact court designs avoid encroaching on sidewalks or driveways but still require full-edge containment to prevent stone loss. Maintenance guidance includes simple seasonal raking and top-up of the wearing course to maintain a true roll after heavy thunderstorms.
