Barry Brothers Landscaping | Certified Landscaping Services in Boylston, MA

Soil compaction is a frequent challenge here, often caused by heavy foot traffic or construction. We address this by first assessing the extent of the compaction. Our approach typically involves core aeration, which removes small plugs of soil to relieve pressure and allow air, water, and nutrients to reach grass roots again. For more severe cases or in preparation for new plantings, we may recommend tilling and amending the soil with organic compost. This revitalizes the soil structure, promoting healthier lawns and gardens that can better withstand local conditions.
