Landscapers Wilmington NC | Call Gowers Landscaping

Bare patches in Wilmington lawns often result from our sandy soil, heat stress, or pest damage. We start by diagnosing the cause, then prepare the soil with appropriate amendments, seed with grass varieties suited to our coastal climate, and provide proper watering guidance. Timing is crucial here - we recommend addressing patches in early fall or spring when temperatures are optimal for germination.

Weeds in mulch beds are common in Wilmington due to our long growing season. We recommend a multi-step approach: proper mulch depth (2-3 inches), using quality landscape fabric as a barrier, selecting the right mulch type for your plants, and applying pre-emergent treatments at the right times. Our team can assess your specific situation and implement a maintenance plan that keeps beds weed-free with minimal effort.

Wilmington's subtropical climate means year-round landscaping needs. We recommend spring cleanups in March to address winter damage, summer maintenance for weed control and irrigation checks, fall preparation for cooler weather, and winter planning for the coming year. Regular maintenance prevents small issues like bare patches or weed invasions from becoming major problems, saving you time and money long-term.
