Question Answers
My lawn in Lynn has dead patches and my shrubs are dying. Could this be a drainage issue, and how can CDM Landscaping help?
Absolutely. Poor drainage is a frequent cause of lawn and shrub problems in our area, often due to compacted soil or improper grading. We can assess your property and offer solutions like regrading, installing French drains, or building a retaining wall to manage water flow. This corrects the root cause, allowing for healthy new sod or plantings that will last.
I need a new patio and walkways, but I'm worried about winter damage and future repairs. What materials and techniques do you use?
As local masons, we use techniques and materials suited for New England winters. For patios and walkways, we ensure a deep, compacted gravel base and proper pitch for drainage to prevent frost heave and water pooling. We recommend durable materials like concrete pavers or high-strength poured concrete, and our construction includes expansion joints to minimize cracking, reducing the need for future masonry repair.
Can you build a retaining wall that also improves my landscaping? My yard has a sloped area where nothing seems to grow well.
Yes, that's a perfect application. A professionally built retaining wall does more than hold back soil; it creates usable flat areas for gardening or leisure. We can design and construct a wall that solves the erosion on your slope, provides better growing conditions for new plants, and integrates seamlessly with new landscape construction like terraced gardens or a patio, turning a problem area into a focal point.
