Harris Lawn Services - Pontiac's Qualified Landscapers

Poor drainage is often caused by lawn grading issues, a common problem in our area. Our lawn care includes an assessment of your yard's slope and soil compaction. We correct minor grading through core aeration and topdressing, which helps water infiltrate the soil properly instead of pooling. For more significant issues, we can recommend and perform regrading services to direct water away from your home's foundation, protecting your property and creating a healthier environment for your grass to grow.

Moss thrives in Pontiac due to factors like shade, compacted soil, and low soil pH—all common here. Our lawn care service tackles moss at its source. We perform soil testing to check pH and nutrient levels, then apply targeted lime treatments to correct acidity. We also improve sunlight penetration by thinning tree canopies (where possible) and use core aeration to relieve soil compaction. This creates conditions that favor strong grass over moss, leading to a durable, moss-free lawn.

A visit from Harris Lawn Services is tailored to Pontiac's specific needs. We start with a visual inspection for grading issues and moss. Our service includes precise mowing at the ideal height for our climate, edging for a clean look, and a thorough assessment of soil health. We focus on proactive measures like aeration to combat compaction and overseeding with grass varieties suited to Michigan that can outcompete moss. Every step is designed to build a lawn that's not just attractive, but resilient against local challenges.
