Landscapers Albuquerque NM | Call Jeff's Yard Service

We offer several solutions tailored to our local landscape. For surface roots, we can carefully grade the soil and add a layer of topsoil with drought-resistant sod or native ground cover to even the area safely. For more significant issues, we provide expert root pruning (without harming the tree's health) followed by soil aeration and overseeding to repair the lawn. We also advise on proper irrigation to discourage surface root growth in the future.

Soil cracking here is often due to our clay soil shrinking when it dries out. Our fix starts with core aeration to relieve compaction and improve water penetration. We then amend the soil with organic compost and other conditioners to increase its moisture retention and elasticity. Finally, we recommend and implement a consistent, deep-watering schedule and the use of mulch in planting beds to maintain even soil moisture and prevent future cracks.

Absolutely. A big part of our service is proactive planning. We assess your soil, sun exposure, and drainage to recommend native and drought-tolerant plants with less aggressive root systems. We design efficient irrigation zones to prevent dry spots that lead to cracks and implement regular maintenance schedules, including aeration and soil conditioning, to keep your yard healthy and resilient against our local climate challenges.
