H&S Mow’s - Guilford's Licensed Landscaping

In Guilford, a frequent cause of plant failure is improper soil conditions and watering for our specific climate. We start with a soil analysis to check for nutrient deficiencies or pH imbalances. Then, we recommend and install plants that are proven to thrive locally, ensuring they're planted correctly with proper drainage and a tailored watering schedule to establish strong, healthy roots.

We specialize in managing surface tree roots, a common issue in our area with mature trees. For safety and lawn health, we can carefully grade and level affected areas, then oversee with a durable, shade-tolerant grass blend. In severe cases, we may recommend and install a decorative, permeable ground cover like mulch or stone around the tree base, which protects the roots while eliminating the hazard.

Proactive, seasonal maintenance is key. Our local expertise allows us to create a year-round care plan for your property. This includes proper spring and fall clean-ups, aeration to alleviate soil compaction, targeted fertilization based on soil tests, and pruning to maintain tree and shrub health. This consistent care builds resilience, helping your lawn and garden better withstand stressors common in our shoreline environment.
