Question Answers
My lawn in Streator has dead patches and the soil feels hard. What's the best solution?
Dead patches and compacted soil are common challenges in our area, often due to heavy clay soil and foot traffic. At Evans Landscaping, we address this with a comprehensive approach. First, we use core aeration to relieve soil compaction, allowing water, air, and nutrients to reach the roots. Then, we oversee with a hearty grass blend suited for the Illinois climate and improve the soil quality. For severely damaged areas, we may recommend sod installation or a full lawn renovation. Our 15 years of local experience means we know what works for Streator yards to create a resilient, green lawn.
Do you handle both the design and construction of hardscape projects like patios and retaining walls?
Yes, we provide a complete, seamless service from initial concept to final installation. Our design services help you visualize your new patio, walkway, or retaining wall, ensuring it complements your home's architecture and your lifestyle. Then, our experienced construction team executes the plan with precision, using quality materials and proven techniques. As a family-run business focused on lasting quality, we manage every detail so you have a single, reliable point of contact from start to finish.
Can you help with ongoing shrub and landscape maintenance after a new installation?
