Landscapers Cumming GA | Call Johnson Landscapes

For tree root damage, we typically recommend a combination of careful grading to smooth the surface and installing a shade-tolerant sod that can thrive in those root-dense areas. Simply adding topsoil can harm the tree, so our expert approach ensures the lawn is repaired without compromising the health of your valuable trees, a common concern in our area.

Dead spots in Cumming are often caused by compacted clay soil, poor drainage, or inadequate irrigation coverage. We help by first diagnosing the root cause—whether it's soil composition or a sprinkler issue—then applying solutions like core aeration to relieve compaction, adjusting your irrigation system, and patching with durable sod suited for our local climate to prevent the problem from returning.

Absolutely. Shade from mature pines is a major factor in lawn health here. We specialize in selecting and installing the right grass varieties that perform well in low-light conditions. Combined with strategic pruning for light penetration and proper organic amendments to combat acidic pine needle soil, we can establish a lush, green lawn even in your shadiest spots.
