Question Answers
How do you handle common Jacksonville issues like poor lawn grading and damaged landscape edging?
Poor grading and damaged edging are frequent issues here due to soil composition and seasonal weather. For grading, we assess drainage patterns and regrade to ensure proper water flow away from your home's foundation, using soil amendments suited for our local clay. For edging, we install durable, deep-set borders that can withstand root growth and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles, preventing future damage and keeping your landscape lines clean.
What's the difference between your 'gardening' and 'landscape maintenance' services?
As Jerry says, he's a gardener, not just a maintenance guy. 'Landscape maintenance' covers the essentials like mowing, blowing, and seasonal clean-ups. Our 'gardening' service is more detailed and holistic—it involves actively nurturing plant health, strategic pruning for growth and shape, soil care, and integrated pest or disease management. It's about cultivating a living, thriving landscape, not just trimming it back.
Do you handle irrigation systems, and can you work with existing setups?
Yes, we provide full irrigation services from design and new construction to repair and maintenance. We often work with existing systems in Jacksonville homes, performing audits for efficiency, repairing leaks or broken heads, and upgrading components like controllers to be more water-smart. Given our local experience, we can design systems that account for our dry summers and variable water pressure, ensuring your plants get the right amount of water without waste.
