Frequently Asked Questions
What's the most common cause of poor drainage in Newark yards, and how can you fix it?
In our Newark clay soils, the most frequent cause is improper grading, where the land slopes toward the home instead of away. We fix this by carefully regrading the yard, often incorporating French drains or dry creek beds to redirect water effectively and protect your foundation.
Why do my shrubs keep dying, and what can Busy Bees do to help?
Shrubs often fail due to soil compaction, poor pH, or incorrect planting for our local conditions. We start with a soil test, then correct the issues with aeration, amendments, and by replacing with hardy, native species suited for Newark's climate, ensuring they get a healthy start.
As a Newark homeowner, when is the best time to address landscaping drainage issues?
The ideal time is late summer or early fall. This allows us to complete the work before winter freeze-thaw cycles worsen the problem and gives new grading and plantings time to establish before the next heavy spring rains common in our area.
