Jaye's Professional Lawncare | Licensed Landscapers in Martinsville, VA

Dying shrubs in our area are often caused by soil compaction, which restricts root growth and water absorption, or by improper planting in poor soil. Jaye's can diagnose the specific issue, perform core aeration to alleviate compaction, and provide expert shrub care, including proper pruning, deep-root fertilization, or strategic replacement with hardy, native species suited to Martinsville's climate.

Core aeration is the process of removing small plugs of soil from your lawn to alleviate compaction—a frequent issue here. This allows essential air, water, and nutrients to reach the grass roots, promoting deeper growth and a healthier, more drought-resistant turf. It's a foundational service we recommend to combat the local problem of compacted, struggling soil.

Absolutely. Bare patches are a common symptom of soil compaction in our region. Our process starts with core aeration to fix the underlying soil issue. We then oversee the proper seeding or sodding of those areas, along with a tailored fertilization and watering plan, to ensure new grass establishes strongly and blends seamlessly with your existing lawn.
