Professional Landscapers in Des Moines, IA 50317 - Beautiful Lawns By Long's

Proper construction and smart irrigation are key. We design and install landscapes with optimal grading and drainage to prevent water pooling and soil erosion, which cause bare spots. Our custom irrigation systems deliver precise, even watering to keep grass healthy and dense, leaving less room for weeds to establish. This foundational approach tackles the root causes of common lawn issues.

Our proactive care includes seasonal pruning to promote plant health and air circulation, reducing disease risk. We provide targeted insect and disease management for shrubs and trees, using treatments safe for your family and pets. Healthy, well-maintained plants are more resistant to infestations and form a stronger, more beautiful landscape foundation that naturally discourages weed growth.

Absolutely. We start with a design service to plan a cohesive space, then handle all construction—from patios and retaining walls to new lawn installation and walkways. We address underlying soil issues, install proper irrigation, and select robust plants suited for Iowa. This full-scale renovation replaces problem areas with a professionally built landscape designed for long-term health and minimal maintenance.
