Questions and Answers
How can Friend's Landscaping fix the hard, compacted soil in my Pennington yard?
We use core aeration, a process that removes small plugs of soil to relieve compaction. This is especially effective for our local clay-heavy soil, allowing water, air, and fertilizer to penetrate deeply. This promotes stronger root growth and a thicker, healthier lawn that can better withstand our seasonal changes.
My lawn has dry, brown patches even with a sprinkler system. Can you help?
Absolutely. Dry patches in Pennington are often due to sprinkler coverage gaps or improper pressure. We perform a thorough sprinkler system audit, checking each head for alignment, clogging, and output. We then make precise adjustments or repairs to ensure uniform coverage, eliminating those frustrating dry spots.
What's a good maintenance plan to prevent soil compaction and watering issues?
We recommend a seasonal approach. In spring and fall, core aeration combats compaction. Throughout the growing season, we suggest checking your sprinkler system monthly for misaligned heads. A professional audit and tune-up from us at the start of each season is the best way to prevent problems before they start, saving you water and money.
