Hines & Forbes Property Maintenance Repair Services | Top-Rated Landscapers in Milwaukee, WI

Poor grading often directs water toward your home's foundation, which can rot wooden siding, porch supports, and basement framing. Our carpenters address the root cause by repairing or replacing water-damaged structural wood and can then build or install solutions like functional retaining walls, graded deck foundations, or custom drainage channels that protect your property long-term.

Address the deck first. Rotting boards are a safety hazard and often indicate underlying water issues that also ruin your lawn. Our carpenters will assess the deck's structure, replace damaged wood, and ensure it's properly pitched for drainage. Once the water management from the deck is corrected, you'll have a stable base for successful lawn repair or regrading.

Absolutely. Prevention is key. Our carpentry services include building custom-grade wooden retaining walls to correct slope, constructing raised garden beds that improve drainage, and installing durable, properly-sloped wooden steps and walkways that channel water away from your foundation—all tailored to Milwaukee's soil and weather conditions.
