Question Answers
What causes bare patches in my Wasilla lawn every spring?
Bare patches are common here due to winterkill, heavy snowpack, soil compaction, and salt or sand damage from road maintenance. Our process involves aerating the compacted soil, adding nutrient-rich topsoil, and reseeding with cold-hardy grass blends specifically selected for the Mat-Su Valley to promote strong, lasting regrowth.
Can you replace shrubs that died over the winter?
Absolutely. We specialize in removing dead or damaged shrubs and replacing them with native and hardy Alaska-friendly varieties that are more resilient to our freeze-thaw cycles and heavy snow. We ensure proper planting depth and soil amendments to give your new landscaping the best chance to thrive.
How do you prepare my landscape to better survive next winter?
Our focus is on building resilience. Beyond repairs, we offer services like fall aeration, proper mulching to protect root systems, and strategic pruning. We'll recommend a maintenance plan to strengthen your lawn and plants, making them more resistant to the specific challenges of a Wasilla winter.
