Top-Rated Landscaping in Saint Charles, IL 60175 - Evergreen Landscape Associates

In our area, poor drainage is often due to a combination of heavy clay soil, which doesn't absorb water well, and improper grading. Over time, soil settles or landscaping changes can direct water toward your home's foundation instead of away from it. We assess your property's slope and soil composition to recommend solutions like regrading, French drains, or dry creek beds that work with our local conditions.

Weeds in mulch beds are a frequent issue here. The most effective strategy is a two-part approach: first, a professional-grade pre-emergent herbicide applied in early spring to prevent weed seeds from germinating, and second, maintaining a proper mulch depth of 2-3 inches to block sunlight. We also recommend using a quality landscape fabric beneath mulch for added barrier and ensuring mulch beds are edged cleanly to prevent grass encroachment.

We provide targeted services to address Saint Charles' common landscaping headaches. For drainage, we offer site evaluation, regrading, and the installation of channel drains, catch basins, and downspout extensions. For weed control and bed maintenance, our services include bed edging, mulch installation with fabric barrier, and seasonal weed treatment programs. Every solution is designed for durability in our Midwest climate.
