IRV Landscaping - Littleton's Experienced Landscaping Services

We recommend a multi-step approach: first, a professional assessment to determine the tree's health and the root severity. Solutions can include installing a root barrier, carefully grading and re-sodding the affected area with shade-tolerant grass, or implementing a creative landscaping alternative like a mulch bed or ground cover around the tree base. We'll find a solution that protects both your tree and your lawn's appearance.

Prevention starts with a deep, infrequent watering schedule early in the morning, proper aeration to improve water absorption, and choosing drought-resistant grass blends suitable for our area. Our team can perform a soil analysis and set up an efficient irrigation schedule or recommend upgrades to your system. We also provide seasonal overseeding with hardy varieties to build a more resilient lawn.

Spring and fall are ideal. In spring, we can address winter damage, apply pre-emergent treatments, and begin strengthening the lawn before summer heat. Fall is perfect for core aeration, overseeding to repair thin or damaged areas, and applying fertilizer to build root strength for winter. Tackling problems in these seasons gives your lawn the best chance to recover and thrive in our climate.
