Frequently Asked Questions
What's the best way to prevent weeds in mulch beds for Brewster homes?
Weeds in mulch beds are a common local issue, often due to underlying weed seeds in the soil and thin mulch layers. We recommend a two-step approach: first, we apply a pre-emergent barrier before mulching to prevent new growth. Then, we install a thicker, proper depth of quality mulch, which is key in our area to suppress weeds and retain moisture. Our lawn care services include this targeted strategy to keep your landscape clean and healthy.
Do you handle both the design and construction of hardscape projects like patios and retaining walls?
Yes, we provide a complete service from initial design to final installation. Our process begins with a consultation to understand your vision and assess your Brewster property's specific layout and drainage needs. We then create a design plan, select appropriate materials for our local climate, and our experienced masonry team handles all construction, ensuring a seamless, high-quality build for your patio, walkway, or retaining wall.
Can you repair and reseal an existing concrete driveway, and when is the best time to do it?
Absolutely. Driveway repair and resealing are core services we offer to extend the life of your concrete. We assess for cracks, spalling, or wear, perform necessary repairs, and then apply a professional-grade sealer. For Brewster homeowners, late spring or early fall is ideal, as it requires several days of dry weather with moderate temperatures for the sealer to cure properly, protecting it from winter freeze-thaw cycles and summer sun.
