Capital Landscaping: Experienced Landscaping Services Serving Des Moines, IA 50313

Soil compaction is a frequent challenge in our area, often caused by heavy clay soils and foot traffic. As part of our comprehensive lawn care and landscape maintenance, we offer core aeration services. This process removes small plugs of soil, allowing essential air, water, and nutrients to reach the grass roots more effectively. For new installations, we amend the soil during the landscaping process to create a healthier foundation. Addressing compaction is a key step in promoting a thicker, more resilient lawn that can better withstand Iowa's weather.

Our process begins with a consultation to understand your vision, usage needs, and budget. Our design services translate that into a detailed plan, selecting materials like pavers or blocks that suit Des Moines' climate. Our construction team then handles the full installation, from proper excavation and base preparation to precise laying and sealing. We ensure proper drainage and integration with your existing landscape. The result is a durable, custom-built hardscape, whether it's a cozy patio for entertaining or a functional walkway, designed to enhance your home's outdoor living space for years.

Absolutely. We believe in supporting the landscapes we build. Our maintenance services include seasonal clean-ups, mowing, shrub pruning, and disease/insect management to keep plantings healthy. For irrigation systems, we provide start-up and winterization services, along with repair and maintenance to fix leaks, adjust heads, and ensure efficient water coverage. This proactive care helps protect your investment, conserves water, and keeps your property looking its best through every season in Central Iowa.
