Gemberling Property Services | Qualified Landscaping in Selinsgrove, PA

Poor drainage often stems from uneven or improperly compacted soil, which leads to water pooling in low spots. Our soil backfilling and compaction service corrects this by bringing in clean fill dirt to re-grade your yard, creating a gentle slope away from your foundation. We then compact the soil to a stable density, preventing future settling and ensuring surface water flows correctly, protecting your property from water damage and soggy lawns.

Bare patches are often more than a surface issue; they can indicate poor soil quality or compaction underneath. Our excavation service carefully removes the problem area, including any old, dead roots or rocky subsoil. We then prepare a deep, fertile seedbed with quality topsoil and proper grading. This foundational work, combined with our expert lawn care, ensures new grass has the best environment to establish deep roots and thrive long-term in the Selinsgrove climate.

Trench digging is a key solution for managing water. If you have persistent wet spots or water collecting near your foundation, we dig strategic trenches to install French drains or channel drains. These trenches are carefully sloped to carry excess groundwater away from critical areas. It’s also essential for running new utility lines or irrigation systems without disrupting your entire yard. We ensure trenches are properly backfilled and compacted to prevent future sinking or lawn damage.
