Experienced Landscapers in Marysville, WA 98270 - Cousins Landscaping & Excavating

Absolutely. Often, dead lawn areas are caused by poor soil composition or inadequate drainage underneath. Our excavation service allows us to properly remove the compromised soil and grade the land. We can then install a new base layer and ensure proper water flow, creating the ideal foundation for a new, healthy lawn that will thrive in our local climate.

Yes, it can be a key part of the process. For large, established shrubs, simply cutting them down leaves a dense root network that can hinder new planting. We use trench digging to isolate and sever the major root systems, allowing for complete removal. This clears the area thoroughly and prevents regrowth, giving you a clean slate for your new landscape design in Marysville.

Think of excavation as the broad preparation of a site—like leveling a sloped yard or clearing a large area for a patio. Trench digging is a more precise service for installing utilities. In Marysville, we often dig trenches to lay new irrigation lines to water hard-to-reach lawn areas or drainage pipes to channel water away from your home's foundation, solving specific moisture-related landscaping issues.
