Question Answers
What's the most effective way to deal with the tough weeds common in Wilmington lawns?
Wilmington's climate allows for tough weeds like crabgrass and dandelions to thrive. The most effective approach is a combination of pre-emergent treatments in early spring to prevent germination, followed by targeted post-emergent control for any breakthroughs, and maintaining a thick, healthy lawn through proper fertilization and mowing practices to outcompete weeds naturally.
My landscape edging is cracked or sunken. Can it be repaired, or does it need full replacement?
It depends on the material and extent of damage. For minor issues with paver or stone edging, we can often reset and relevel the existing pieces. However, for severely cracked plastic or metal edging, or if the system is failing structurally, a full replacement with a more durable material like steel or concrete curbing is usually the more reliable and long-term solution for Wilmington properties.
How can I prevent my new landscape edging from being damaged by winter frost in Delaware?
Proper installation is key to frost heave prevention. We ensure edging is set on a compacted gravel base below the frost line and use flexible jointing materials where appropriate. For Wilmington homes, choosing in-ground materials like steel or deeply-set stone, rather than surface-level plastic, provides the stability needed to handle our freeze-thaw cycles season after season.
