Helping Hand Landscaping - Rochester's Professional Landscaping Services

We use core aeration to relieve soil compaction, a common issue in Rochester due to heavy clay soils and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles. This process removes small plugs of soil, allowing air, water, and nutrients to reach grass roots more effectively. We also recommend topdressing with compost to improve soil structure long-term.

Rochester's humidity can promote fungus like brown patch and dollar spot. We provide fungicide applications tailored to the specific disease, along with cultural adjustments like proper mowing height, morning watering schedules, and improving air circulation to create a less hospitable environment for fungus.

Absolutely. Our seasonal maintenance programs include soil testing, aeration, and proactive fungus monitoring. We'll customize a plan based on your yard's specific conditions—like addressing drainage in low spots or selecting fungus-resistant grass varieties—to prevent problems before they start.
