Denhard & Stuhl Landscape Contractor - North Brunswick's Professional Landscapers

For North Brunswick homes, we typically recommend a combination of proper grading and French drain systems. Our clay-heavy soil here doesn't drain quickly, so we create gentle slopes away from foundations and install subsurface drains to redirect water to appropriate discharge points. This prevents the pooling and erosion that many local homeowners experience.

The key is proper installation with quality materials. We use a double-layer approach: first installing landscape fabric as a barrier, then applying 2-3 inches of shredded hardwood mulch (which resists washing away better than chips). We also create defined edges to keep mulch contained. For existing beds, we remove weeds completely before refreshing with new mulch each season.

We focus on foundational improvements that solve problems while enhancing appearance. Proper drainage systems protect your home's foundation from water damage—a major concern for North Brunswick buyers. Well-maintained mulch beds with defined edges and healthy plants create immediate curb appeal. We also recommend native plants that thrive in our climate with less maintenance, making your landscape both beautiful and practical.
