Common Questions
How can poor lawn grading around my Burlington home be fixed?
Poor grading directs water toward your foundation, which can cause serious damage over time. We assess the slope of your property and perform expert regrading to create proper drainage away from your home. This often involves reshaping the soil, installing French drains or catch basins, and re-sodding to solve pooling issues and protect your foundation—a common need in our local clay-heavy soils.
What should I do if I suspect a sprinkler leak in my yard?
A leaking sprinkler wastes water and can drown your plants or create muddy areas. We recommend turning off your system and calling us for a professional inspection. Our technicians will check for broken heads, cracked pipes, and faulty valves—common issues in Burlington's systems—and make precise repairs to restore efficiency and prevent further water damage to your landscape.
Can you help with both drainage and sprinkler issues at the same time?
Absolutely. These problems are often related; poor drainage can be worsened by a leaking sprinkler. We provide comprehensive property evaluations to address the root causes. Our team can redesign your landscape's grading for better runoff while repairing or upgrading your irrigation system for optimal, water-efficient coverage, creating a holistic solution for a healthier, more resilient yard.
