Landscaping Cortez CO | Call Atd Forestry

The first step is a professional site evaluation. Our team assesses your property's slope, soil type, and existing water flow to pinpoint the root cause of pooling or erosion. In Cortez, compacted clay soils are a common culprit. We then design a tailored solution, which may involve strategic grading, installing drainage channels, or amending the soil to improve absorption and protect your landscape's health.

This is a frequent issue here, often due to a combination of factors: unsuitable plant species, improper planting depth, and inadequate water management in our arid climate. We help by selecting plants native or well-adapted to Southwest Colorado's conditions. More importantly, we ensure they are planted correctly with proper soil preparation and a watering plan that establishes deep roots, giving them the best chance to thrive with less maintenance.

Absolutely. Erosion control is a critical service we provide for hillside properties in our area. We use techniques like terracing, retaining walls with proper drainage, and planting deep-rooted ground covers to stabilize the soil. Our approach not only solves the immediate erosion problem but also integrates the solution beautifully into your landscape, preventing water runoff from damaging your yard and protecting the local environment.
