Kelly Yardwork: Reliable Landscaping Services Serving Richmond, VA 23228

In Richmond, moss and bare patches are often caused by compacted soil, poor drainage, shade, or improper mowing. Kelly Yardwork starts with a thorough assessment of your lawn's specific conditions. We then implement solutions like core aeration to relieve compaction, overseeding with shade-tolerant grass blends for bare spots, and adjusting your mowing height to promote thicker growth and discourage moss.

We provide comprehensive moss management, not just removal. After carefully removing existing moss, we address the underlying causes—such as soil acidity, compaction, or excessive shade—with treatments like lime applications, aeration, and tailored cultural practices. This approach helps prevent moss from returning and encourages healthy grass to fill in, giving you a lasting solution.

To repair bare patches, we prepare the soil, apply a high-quality seed blend suited for Richmond's climate, and use a starter fertilizer. We'll also advise on proper watering to ensure establishment. You'll typically see new grass sprouting within 7-14 days, with the patch filling in substantially within 4-6 weeks. For best results, we often recommend a follow-up visit to monitor progress.
