Questions and Answers
What's the best way to fix bare spots in my Ocala lawn?
Bare spots are common here due to our sandy soil and high traffic. As a turf specialist, we start by diagnosing the cause—often compacted soil, pests, or improper watering. For a lasting fix, we may recommend core aeration to relieve compaction, followed by regrading for proper drainage, overseeding with a Florida-appropriate grass variety, and adjusting your irrigation schedule. Our approach combines soil health with precise lawn care to encourage thick, durable growth.
Do you handle both landscaping and pest control, like ant or wasp problems?
Yes, we are a full-service company. Many landscape issues, like damaged shrubs or unhealthy turf, can be linked to pests. Our licensed technicians can address ant mounds, wasp nests, ticks, and other pests with targeted extermination. We also offer ongoing preventative treatments for both indoor and outdoor areas. This integrated approach means we can solve the pest problem and then repair any resulting damage to your lawn or plants, all in one visit.
Can you help with exposed palm tree roots in my yard?
Absolutely. Exposed roots on palms and other trees are a frequent sight in Ocala and can be a tripping hazard or indicate erosion. We offer professional regrading and earthmoving services to carefully address the soil level around the tree without damaging the critical root zone. In some cases, we may recommend constructing a decorative retaining wall or a mowing border to protect the roots and create a clean, safe landscape feature. It's important to handle this correctly to avoid harming the tree.
