Edgewood Lawn Service - Parkersburg's Licensed Landscapers

Absolutely. Poor drainage is a common issue in our area due to soil composition. Our core lawn care services include aeration, which creates channels in the soil to allow water and nutrients to penetrate deeper, reducing surface pooling. We can also assess the grading and thatch layer of your lawn and recommend specific treatments to improve water absorption and direct runoff away from problem areas, promoting a healthier root system.

Dead patches here are often caused by a combination of factors like compacted soil, disease, or improper watering. Our lawn care approach starts with diagnosing the specific cause. We then use techniques like dethatching to remove dead grass buildup, followed by core aeration to relieve soil compaction. Finally, we overseed the affected areas with grass varieties suited for our local climate and apply a balanced fertilizer to encourage thick, healthy regrowth and prevent future bare spots.

For long-term lawn health in our region, regular core aeration is one of the most beneficial services. It directly combats the soil compaction that leads to both standing water and dead patches. By allowing air, water, and nutrients to reach the grass roots, aeration strengthens your lawn's foundation, making it more drought-resistant and less susceptible to disease. We recommend aeration as part of a seasonal maintenance plan tailored to your yard's specific needs.
