Down & Dirty Landscaping | Experienced Landscaping Services in Aberdeen, WA

In Aberdeen, the most common cause is improper grading combined with our heavy rainfall. Water pools where it shouldn't, leading to soggy lawns and erosion. We fix this by re-grading the soil to create a gentle slope away from your home and key areas, often combined with installing a French drain system—a gravel-filled trench with a perforated pipe—to collect and redirect subsurface water safely away from your property.

That's a classic Aberdeen issue caused by our expansive, wet soil. Flimsy plastic or shallow edging often fails. We recommend and install more durable solutions like heavy-duty steel edging, which is driven deep into the ground for stability, or concrete paver edging set on a solid gravel base. These materials resist shifting and sinking, providing a clean, long-lasting border that holds its shape through our rainy seasons.

Absolutely. In fact, they often go hand-in-hand. For example, when we re-grade a yard for better drainage, we frequently need to reset or replace the edging along beds and walkways to match the new soil level and ensure proper water flow. We can assess your entire landscape system and tackle these interconnected problems in a coordinated project, saving you time and ensuring all solutions work together effectively.
