Gregorio Brothers Landscaping: Licensed Landscapers Serving Princeton, NJ 08540

Overgrown shrubs are a common issue in our area. We offer professional pruning and shrub rejuvenation services. For many shrubs, we can perform a careful, selective pruning to restore their shape and health without starting over. For severely overgrown plants, a more aggressive rejuvenation pruning over multiple seasons can bring them back to a manageable size. This not only improves curb appeal but also promotes better air circulation and reduces disease.

Yes, that's a classic sign of soil compaction, which is very common in our local soils, especially in high-traffic areas. Compacted soil prevents water, air, and nutrients from reaching grass roots. We address this with core aeration, which removes small plugs of soil to relieve compaction. This simple service allows your lawn to breathe, improves drainage, and helps fertilizers work more effectively, leading to a thicker, healthier turf.

A proactive approach is key. We recommend a seasonal plan that includes spring and fall clean-ups, routine pruning to keep shrubs in check before they become overgrown, and annual core aeration for lawns to combat ongoing compaction. This regular maintenance prevents small issues from becoming major headaches, protects your investment in your landscape, and keeps your Princeton property looking its best year-round with less effort on your part.
