JNK Abaitment Landscaping and Designs - Kelseyville's Experienced Landscapers

Poor drainage is often caused by soil compaction or improper grading, both common issues here. We offer core aeration to decompact the soil, allowing water and nutrients to reach the roots. For more significant water pooling, we provide lawn regrading services to create a gentle slope that directs water away from your home and foundation, resolving those muddy areas and promoting a healthier lawn.

Absolutely. Compacted soil restricts root growth, water absorption, and nutrient uptake, which can weaken shrubs and make them susceptible to the diseases and insects we see locally. Our approach combines shrub care with soil health. We treat any visible disease or insect issues while also improving the soil environment through aeration and, if needed, amending the soil during planting or transplanting. This holistic method gives your shrubs the best foundation to thrive.

Proper tree planting is key to long-term health, especially in our area. We start by assessing your site's natural drainage and grading. We then prepare a sufficiently wide and properly amended planting hole to encourage root expansion beyond the compacted soil. For new construction sites or areas with severe compaction, we may recommend vertical mulching or soil fracturing techniques at the time of planting to ensure your new tree establishes a strong, deep root system resistant to local stressors.
