Down & Dirty Landscaping - Westport's Expert Landscapers

We assess the specific root damage and soil conditions common in our area. Our process involves carefully leveling the affected area, addressing the root issue if possible without harming the tree, and then re-grading and re-sodding or seeding with durable grass varieties that can better coexist with tree roots in the Westport climate.

Bare patches here are often due to soil compaction, shade, or salt spray. We start by diagnosing the cause, then aerate and amend the soil with local compost. We use a high-quality, shade-tolerant grass seed blend specifically formulated for the Pacific Northwest to ensure the new grass establishes well and matches your existing lawn.

While we can't stop roots from growing, we can implement proactive strategies. This includes choosing the right grass types, using strategic mulching around tree bases to create a healthy root zone away from the lawn, and providing proper lawn care to encourage deep grass roots that can better compete. We'll create a maintenance plan to help manage the issue long-term.
