Frequently Asked Questions
My rock garden in Rockland keeps shifting and falling apart. What's the best long-term solution?
This is a common issue with our local soil and freeze-thaw cycles. The most effective solution is a professionally engineered retaining wall. Our masonry team constructs walls with proper drainage and deep footings to stabilize the soil and hold your rock features securely in place, preventing future shifting and creating a beautiful, permanent landscape element.
Can you help with my patchy, struggling lawn, and what does that involve?
Absolutely. Patchy grass often stems from poor soil, uneven grading, or inadequate irrigation. Our process starts with a landscape design consultation to diagnose the cause. We then correct the soil and grade, followed by the precise installation of a custom irrigation system to ensure even watering. Finally, we install quality sod or seed tailored to our local climate for a thick, healthy, and resilient lawn.
We want a new patio but are worried about frost heave. How does Galpin Landscape ensure it stays level?
As Rockland masons, we build for New England winters. Our patio construction includes excavating to the proper frost depth and installing a compacted base of gravel and sand for stability. We use interlocking pavers or poured concrete with control joints, allowing for slight, controlled movement. This method, combined with expert grading for drainage, creates a patio that remains level and crack-resistant for years to come.
