Common Questions
What's the best way to prevent landscape edging from getting damaged by Maine winters?
In Windham, winter frost heave is a primary culprit. We recommend and install durable, frost-resistant materials like steel or heavy-duty polymer edging. Proper installation is key—we ensure it's set at the correct depth with secure anchoring to handle freeze-thaw cycles, preventing the shifting and cracking that plagues many local landscapes.
Why does moss keep taking over my lawn in Windham, and how can I stop it?
Moss thrives in our area due to shade, compacted soil, poor drainage, and low soil pH. Simply removing it isn't enough. Our service starts with a soil test, then addresses the root causes through core aeration to relieve compaction, improving drainage with grading, and applying soil amendments to balance pH and nourish the grass to outcompete the moss.
Can you repair damaged edging, or is full replacement always necessary?
It depends on the extent of the damage and the material. For minor issues with sturdy materials, we can often perform precise repairs to restore integrity and appearance. However, for extensively damaged or outdated plastic edging common in older Windham homes, we typically recommend replacement with a more durable, modern system to provide a long-term solution and prevent recurring problems.
