FAQs
How can Cushman Landscaping help with the soil compaction I see in my Bennington yard?
Soil compaction is very common in our area due to heavy clay soils and winter freeze-thaw cycles. We use professional core aeration services to relieve compaction, which allows water, air, and nutrients to reach grass roots again. This is a foundational service that revitalizes your lawn's health and prepares it for seeding or fertilizing.
What's the best way to prevent weeds from taking over my mulch beds in Vermont?
The key is a proper installation technique. We start by removing existing weeds, then apply a high-quality landscape fabric or biodegradable barrier before adding a fresh layer of mulch. We also recommend using certain mulch types, like shredded hardwood, that knit together to better suppress weeds. Regular maintenance from our team can keep those beds clean and weed-free all season.
As a Bennington homeowner, when is the ideal time to address these landscaping issues?
For soil aeration, early fall is often best, as it gives grass roots time to recover before winter. For mulch bed renovation and weed prevention, late spring after the ground has thawed and dried, or early summer, is ideal. We can assess your property any time and create a seasonal plan that tackles these issues at the right moment for maximum effectiveness.
