FAQs
My yard in Traverse City has standing water after it rains. Can you help?
Absolutely. Standing water is a common issue in our area, often caused by soil compaction or improper grading. We offer eco-friendly drainage solutions, such as installing French drains or creating rain gardens with native plants. These methods redirect water naturally, solve the pooling problem, and can even enhance your landscape's beauty and biodiversity.
Why are my shrubs constantly dying, and what's an earth-friendly solution?
Shrubs often struggle in Traverse City due to poor soil health, incorrect planting for our microclimate, or water stress. We start with a soil analysis to identify deficiencies. Our solution involves amending the soil with organic compost and replacing problematic shrubs with native species that are naturally adapted to our local conditions, requiring less water and no harsh chemicals to thrive.
