Common Questions
What's the best way to get rid of weeds in my Lexington mulch beds and prevent them from coming back?
Weeds in mulch beds are a common issue here due to our soil and climate. At Fricker's, we tackle this with a multi-step approach. First, we manually remove existing weeds and apply a pre-emergent herbicide to prevent new seeds from germinating. Then, we refresh your mulch to the proper depth, which naturally suppresses weeds. For long-term prevention, our shrub care services, including proper pruning and disease management, keep your plants healthy and dense, leaving less room for weeds to establish. Regular maintenance is key to keeping your beds looking pristine.
My lawn has bare patches. Can you help, and should I consider irrigation services too?
Absolutely. Bare patches in Lexington lawns can stem from compacted soil, disease, or inadequate watering. Our lawn care service starts with diagnosing the cause. We then aerate, overseed with quality grass suited for our region, and apply targeted nutrients. For a lasting solution, we highly recommend evaluating your irrigation system. Our irrigation design, repair, and maintenance services ensure your lawn receives consistent, deep watering without waste, which is crucial for healing bare spots and promoting a thick, uniform turf that resists future damage.
Beyond basic lawn care, what landscaping features can help solve drainage or erosion problems in my yard?
Many Lexington homes deal with water runoff and soil erosion. As expert landscape construction contractors, we build functional features that are also beautiful. A professionally installed retaining wall can stabilize a sloped area and prevent erosion. For drainage, we design and install permeable patios and walkways using materials like pavers that allow water to seep through. Additionally, strategic greenscape construction and planting with deep-rooted native shrubs and trees can help absorb excess rainwater and hold soil in place, solving the problem naturally while enhancing your landscape's design.
