Common Questions
My lawn in Salem has areas that are always soggy or eroding. What's the likely cause and how can you fix it?
This is a very common issue in our area, often caused by poor lawn grading. When the ground doesn't slope correctly away from your home or has low spots, water collects instead of draining. We correct this by expertly regrading your lawn, reshaping the soil to ensure proper water flow. This prevents pooling, protects your foundation, and creates a healthier environment for your grass to thrive.
Why do my shrubs keep dying, and what can Cornerstone Landscaping do differently?
Shrubs can fail for several reasons common to Salem: improper planting depth, unsuitable plant choices for our soil and sun conditions, or damage from winter salt and pests. Our approach starts with a site assessment. We then select proven, hardy species for our climate and ensure they are planted correctly with proper soil amendments. We also provide guidance on protective winter care to give your investment the best chance for long-term health.
As a Salem homeowner, what's the most important first step to take with a problematic landscape?
The most important step is a professional diagnosis. Many landscape issues, like poor grading or dying plants, are symptoms of an underlying problem. We offer a free, on-site consultation to assess your specific yard's conditions—its drainage, soil health, sun exposure, and existing plant material. This allows us to create a targeted, effective plan that addresses the real causes, saving you time and money on solutions that will actually last.
