Landscapers Newport RI | Call Grasshopper Lawn & Landscape Service, LLC

Moss often thrives in shady, damp, or compacted areas of Newport lawns. Our gardening services tackle the root cause by improving soil conditions. We perform core aeration to relieve compaction, enhance drainage, and adjust soil pH. We also recommend proper grass varieties for shade and implement strategic pruning to increase sunlight, creating an environment where your grass can outcompete the moss.

Our regular landscape maintenance program in Newport includes core aeration as a key service. This process removes small plugs of soil, allowing air, water, and nutrients to reach the grass roots. We also advise on proper mowing heights to reduce stress and use lightweight equipment when possible. This ongoing care combats the heavy foot traffic and clay soils common in the area, keeping your lawn healthy and resilient.

Absolutely. Poor drainage is a common issue in Newport that leads to moss and compacted soil. As your local landscaping contractor, we assess your property's grading and can implement solutions like installing French drains, creating dry creek beds, or building raised garden beds. Improving drainage is a foundational step in our gardening and maintenance plans to ensure your landscape stays healthy and beautiful year-round.
