Francisco Alonzo Concrete and Landscaping - Hanover Park's Emergency Landscapers

Absolutely. Improper grading is a common cause of drainage issues. When we install a new concrete driveway, patio, or walkway, we carefully plan the slope and elevation to ensure water flows away from your home's foundation and into appropriate drainage areas. This foundational work is often the first step in solving persistent wet spots or pooling water in your yard.

Bare patches can stem from poor soil, disease, or insect damage. We start with a thorough assessment of your lawn's health. Our solution typically involves core aeration, top-dressing with quality soil, and overseeding with hardy grass varieties suited for the Hanover Park climate. For a lasting fix, we pair this with our shrub and disease management services to address any underlying pest or fungal issues that might be affecting your entire landscape.

Retaining walls are a powerful tool for both aesthetics and function. In sloped Hanover Park yards, they create level areas for patios, planting, or play spaces. More importantly, a properly constructed retaining wall with a gravel backfill and drainage pipe (weep hole) system acts as a barrier to manage soil erosion and control the flow of rainwater. This prevents washouts, protects your foundation, and creates stable conditions for new plants and lawns to grow.
