Q&A

What's the best way to fix damaged landscape edging that keeps breaking down every winter?

For Poughkeepsie's freeze-thaw cycles, we recommend and install durable, flexible polymer or steel edging. Unlike cheaper plastic, these materials resist cracking and heaving. Our process includes proper trenching and secure anchoring below the frost line to prevent winter damage, giving you a clean, lasting edge that maintains your lawn's shape year after year.

My yard has a low spot where water pools after rain. What solutions do you offer?

We address standing water with tailored drainage solutions like French drains, dry wells, or gentle regrading. First, we diagnose the source of the water flow. Then, we design a system to discreetly channel water away from your home's foundation and low-lying areas, solving the soggy yard problem and protecting your property from potential water damage.

Can you install a patio cover to help manage water runoff from my roof?

Absolutely. A well-designed patio or pergola cover from D&J Dutchess can be integrated with gutter systems to direct roof runoff into proper drainage channels. This not only creates a dry, usable outdoor living space but also helps control where heavy rainwater lands, preventing it from contributing to standing water and soil erosion near your home's foundation.
