Absolutely. During landscape construction or installation, we don't just place plants and sod. We first assess and correct underlying issues like poor drainage or compacted soil that contribute to fungus and patchiness. We can install proper grading, select disease-resistant turf varieties suited to Hampton Roads, and ensure healthy soil preparation. This foundational work is key to building a landscape that thrives long-term in our local environment.

Yes, and we plan for it. While our primary goal is safety and aesthetics, improper lighting can stress plants. Our expert light fixture installation considers the type and placement of fixtures to minimize excessive heat or light on turf and planting beds. We use techniques and fixtures that highlight your landscape's beauty without contributing to the environmental stress that can make lawns more susceptible to the issues you're trying to solve.
