Landscaping Lowell MA | Call Great Horizons Landscaping

We offer a multi-step solution. First, our expert tree care services can assess if root pruning or strategic removal is necessary for tree health and lawn protection. Then, we repair the lawn damage by leveling the soil, re-grading if needed, and re-sodding or overseeding with hardy grass varieties suited for our area. For new landscaping projects, our design team can plan tree placement and use root barriers to prevent future conflicts.

Effective weed control starts with proper installation and proactive care. When we install or refresh mulch beds, we use quality landscape fabric as a barrier and apply mulch at the correct depth to suppress weeds. For existing beds, our shrub care and maintenance services include manual weeding, targeted herbicide applications for persistent problems, and implementing a seasonal mulching schedule. We also focus on shrub health through proper pruning and disease management, as vigorous plants naturally outcompete weeds.

Absolutely. This is a common concern in Lowell yards. Our landscape construction services specialize in functional solutions like retaining walls and graded walkways/patios that manage water flow. A properly built retaining wall can hold back soil on a slope, while a strategically installed patio or permeable walkway can direct runoff away from your home's foundation. These features are designed to be both structurally sound and aesthetically pleasing, solving erosion problems while enhancing your outdoor living space.
