Ben's Landscape Maintenance | Licensed Landscaping in Little Rock, AR

We specialize in erosion control solutions for Little Rock's specific soil and rainfall patterns. Our approach often includes strategic regrading to improve water runoff, installing French drains or dry creek beds to channel water safely, and using erosion-control blankets or retaining walls where needed. We can also recommend and install deep-rooted, native ground covers that help hold soil in place naturally.

For surface roots causing tripping hazards and dead patches, we offer professional root pruning and barrier installation to redirect growth without harming the tree's health. We then repair the lawn by carefully leveling the area with topsoil and reseeding or re-sodding with shade-tolerant grasses that compete better with tree roots. In some cases, creating a decorative mulch bed around the tree base is the most practical and attractive long-term solution.

Absolutely. This is a frequent combination we see in Little Rock. We start with a comprehensive assessment to address the root cause—often poor drainage exacerbating root exposure. We typically tackle the drainage and erosion issues first by regrading and installing control measures, then address the root-damaged areas with specialized repair techniques. This integrated approach ensures a stable, functional, and visually cohesive lawn.
