Licensed Landscapers in Sun Prairie, WI 53590 - Connelly Landscaping & Excavating

Bare patches are often a sign of poor soil quality or compaction beneath the surface. Our excavation service carefully removes the thin, unhealthy topsoil and the compacted subsoil in the affected area. We then bring in and grade fresh, nutrient-rich topsoil specifically suited for our local conditions. This creates an ideal, level seedbed for new grass, ensuring it takes root properly and grows evenly to eliminate those unsightly patches for good.

Absolutely. For persistent weed infestations, especially from invasive runners, installing a physical barrier is key. We perform precise trench digging along garden edges, around patios, or beside property lines. We then install a professional-grade landscape fabric barrier deep into the trench before backfilling. This blocks weed roots and rhizomes from spreading into your new flower beds or lawn from adjacent areas, giving your desirable plants a clean, weed-free space to establish themselves.

Yes, poor drainage is a common culprit for both soggy, muddy patches and certain moisture-loving weeds. Our excavation services include site grading and creating shallow trenches for French drain systems. By carefully reshaping the land's contour, we redirect surface water away from your home and lawn. Installing a French drain collects subsurface water and channels it to a better outlet. Solving the water problem eliminates the constant damp environment that weeds and disease thrive in, leading to a drier, healthier lawn.
