Cape Cod Landscaping & Excavation | Lawn Drainage & Tree Care Experts

Poor drainage often stems from incorrect land grading, where water pools instead of flowing away. Our excavation service carefully regrades your property to create the proper slope, directing water away from your home's foundation and low-lying lawn areas. We can also install French drains or dry wells as part of the process. This foundational fix is crucial for solving chronic sogginess and preventing the soil compaction that leads to dead grass.

Absolutely. Dead patches on Cape Cod are frequently a sign of underlying issues like soil compaction, thatch buildup, or disease—not just lack of water. Our landscape maintenance goes beyond basic mowing. We provide core aeration to relieve compaction, dethatching, soil testing, and overseeding with hardy grasses suited to our local climate. This holistic approach addresses the root cause, reviving your lawn and making it more resilient against future problems.

If you have persistent wet spots or struggling grass under a tree's canopy, the tree itself might be contributing. Large surface roots can compact soil and prevent water absorption, while dense shade can thin out grass. Our tree care services include professional pruning to open the canopy for more light and air, or careful root pruning to alleviate soil compaction. In some cases, removing a diseased or poorly placed tree is necessary to fully resolve drainage and allow for a healthy, new landscape.
