Landscaping Metairie LA | Call J & L Mayer Services

Poor grading is a common issue in our area, leading to water pooling against your home's foundation or creating muddy, unusable spots in your yard. Our landscape construction and installation services begin with a site analysis to identify low spots and water flow. We then expertly re-grade the land, install French drains or dry creek beds if needed, and build up planting beds to direct water away from structures. This foundational work not only solves drainage but creates the perfect base for a healthy, beautiful landscape that withstands our local rainfall.

Our proactive landscape maintenance program is specifically tailored to combat the lawn insects common in Metairie. Beyond regular mowing and edging, we include seasonal inspections for early signs of pests like chinch bugs or sod webworms. Based on our findings, we implement targeted, responsible treatments and recommend cultural practices, such as proper aeration and watering schedules, that strengthen your grass's natural defenses. We also manage thatch and soil health, creating an environment where your lawn is less inviting to destructive insects.

Absolutely. A key part of our gardening and greenscape construction philosophy is 'right plant, right place.' We select and install native and adapted plants that are naturally more resistant to local pests, reducing the need for interventions. Our greenscape construction focuses on building balanced, biodiverse plantings that attract beneficial insects, which are nature's pest control. By designing a resilient ecosystem for your property from the start, we help prevent insect infestations from taking hold, leading to a lower-maintenance and more sustainable landscape.
