Cortez Landscaping: Reliable Landscaping Serving Santa Fe, NM 87501

Shifting rocks and erosion are common here due to our soil composition and weather. We address this by properly grading your land to manage water runoff, installing secure edging and retaining systems to hold rocks in place, and using specialized erosion control fabrics and ground covers. A professional assessment is key to creating a long-term, stable solution.

For a durable, low-maintenance yard, we recommend a combination of native, drought-resistant plants with deep root systems to hold soil, along with strategically placed hardscaping like gravel pathways and patios. Using larger, interlocking rocks (riprap) in problem areas and installing proper drainage are also highly effective strategies we use to combat erosion with minimal upkeep.

Absolutely, we frequently repair existing erosion damage. Our process involves assessing the cause, regrading the affected area to correct water flow, reinforcing slopes with retaining walls or terracing, and then restoring the landscape with appropriate materials and plants. We can seamlessly integrate repairs into your existing yard's design to restore both function and beauty.
