We had our foundation leveled about 4 years ago raising our house up about 4-1/2 inches. The area I live in has been in drought ever since. The soil all around our house has settled further despite watering causing a great deal of stress on our plumbing. We've brought in soil to fill gaps between the yard and the foundation. How high up the foundation should we be adding soil? What we've added thus far has been swallowed up exposing the concrete below the forms and sometimes big gaping holes. What should we plant to keep the soil from moving away. We layed sod but it did not survive.

"Susan, what a pleasure it was to work with you. You made me feel like I was your only client - responding late at night and always so quickly! Your design is amazing and we only hope we can do justice to it when we plant . You have such fantastic ideas and you are so open to suggestions and changes. Loved working with you - now if you could only come to Canada and plant it !!! "
