Burbanks Landscaping - Sanford's Expert Landscapers

Moss thrives in Sanford due to acidic soil, compacted earth, shade, and excess moisture. We tackle this by first professionally removing the moss, then correcting the underlying issues. Our services include soil testing and amendment, core aeration to relieve compaction and improve drainage, and tailored recommendations for sunlight or drainage improvements to prevent its return.

For dead areas common in our area, a simple reseed often isn't enough. Burbanks Landscaping uses a proven process: we remove the dead turf, loosen and amend the soil, then overseed with high-quality, shade-tolerant grass blends suited for Maine. We ensure proper seed-to-soil contact and provide guidance on watering to establish thick, healthy grass that crowds out future weeds and moss.

Absolutely. Core aeration is a cornerstone of our service because it directly addresses Sanford's common issues. It punches holes in the soil to break up compaction, allowing air, water, and nutrients to reach grass roots. This strengthens your lawn to better compete with moss, improves drainage in wet areas, and enhances the results of overseeding, leading to a denser, healthier turf.
