Landscapers Mountain Top PA | Call Ground Works Landscaping

For overgrown shrubs common in our area, we recommend a two-step approach. First, we perform a careful rejuvenation pruning, cutting back the oldest stems to encourage healthy new growth from the base. Then, we establish a regular maintenance schedule for shaping. It's crucial to trim at the right time of year for each specific shrub type to avoid stress and promote dense foliage. We can assess your landscape and create a plan that keeps your plants healthy and your views clear.

Patchy lawns here are often caused by a combination of factors: compacted soil from winter, acidic soil common in Pennsylvania, shade from mature trees, or improper mowing and watering. Our fix starts with a soil test to check pH and nutrient levels. We then use core aeration to relieve compaction, followed by overseeding with high-quality, shade-tolerant or sun-loving grass blends suited for our climate. A customized fertilization plan ensures your new grass establishes strongly for a lush, uniform lawn.

For immediate impact, addressing overgrown shrubs often makes the most noticeable difference, as it instantly neatens your home's appearance and can improve safety and light. However, for long-term health and beauty, a balanced approach is best. We typically recommend starting with shrub trimming and cleanup to define your landscape's structure, then implementing a lawn care program to thicken the grass. We can help you prioritize a seasonal plan that fits your budget and maximizes your Mountain Top home's curb appeal throughout the year.
