Dave's Tree and Landscaping Services - Holden's Certified Landscaping Services

Standing water is often caused by poor grading. Our landscape design and building services include regrading your yard to create a gentle slope away from your home, directing water to appropriate drainage areas. We also incorporate solutions like French drains, dry creek beds, and permeable patios into our designs to manage runoff effectively, solving the water issue while enhancing your landscape's beauty.

Our irrigation design goes beyond just watering plants. For Holden properties with drainage concerns, we design smart systems that avoid over-saturating problem areas. We zone your yard based on plant needs and soil drainage, use rain sensors to prevent watering during wet periods, and can integrate drip irrigation for targeted watering. This precise control helps prevent the excess moisture that leads to standing water and promotes a healthier landscape.

Absolutely. Proper shrub planting, pruning, and strategic tree care play a key role. We can plant water-tolerant species in wet areas to help absorb excess moisture. More importantly, skilled pruning opens up tree canopies to allow more sunlight to reach the soil and promote drying, while proper root zone care improves soil structure for better water infiltration. For severe cases, we can advise on selective removal or transplanting to improve airflow and sunlight penetration across your property.
