Local Landscaping in New City, NY 10956 - Bob DeStaso Landscaping

In New City, patchy grass and surface tree roots are common challenges. For patchy areas, we assess soil health, recommend proper aeration and seeding tailored to our local climate, and use targeted lawn care applications to encourage thick, healthy growth. For lawn damage from tree roots, we provide solutions that protect both the tree and your lawn's appearance, which may include careful root pruning, regrading, or installing alternative ground covers that are more tolerant of shade and root competition. Our goal is a balanced, functional landscape.

Our shrub care begins with a thorough inspection to correctly identify any disease or pest issue, such as common local problems like scale or fungal diseases. We then apply targeted treatments, often starting with horticultural oils or soaps, and only use stronger pesticides as a last resort and with precise application to minimize overall use. Safety is a priority; we always discuss treatment plans with you, provide clear instructions on any temporary precautions, and favor environmentally safe solutions to protect your family, pets, and the local ecosystem.

Absolutely. We handle both shrub transplanting and removal with care. For transplanting, we evaluate the shrub's health and the best new location for its success, ensuring proper root ball preservation and aftercare. For removal, especially of large or diseased shrubs, we safely extract the plant and its root system, clean the area, and can advise on replacement options. Our over 25 years of experience in Rockland County means we understand the local soil and conditions, giving your new or remaining plants the best chance to thrive.
