Chico’s & Son’s Landscaping & Construction: Trusted Landscapers Serving Staten Island, NY 10303

Standing water often points to poor grading or drainage. Our landscaping service addresses this by regrading your yard to direct water away from your home, installing French drains or dry wells to capture excess water, and selecting plants that thrive in local conditions without contributing to soggy soil. This comprehensive approach solves the water issue and creates a healthier foundation for your entire landscape.

Proper hardscaping is crucial for controlling water flow. We use masonry and concrete to build functional solutions like properly sloped patios, walkways, and retaining walls that guide water away from vulnerable areas. This prevents erosion, protects your foundation, and eliminates the low spots where water pools, directly tackling the root cause of standing water that can lead to dying plants.

Absolutely. While it might seem unrelated, built-up moss, algae, and grime on driveways, walkways, and patios can create slippery, compacted surfaces that hinder proper water runoff. Our professional pressure washing clears these blockages, allowing water to flow freely into intended drainage areas instead of seeping into planting beds and oversaturating roots, which is a common cause of shrub death in our area.
