Q&A
What causes shrubs to die in Ocean City, and how can you help?
In Ocean City, shrubs often die due to salt spray from the ocean, sandy soil that drains too quickly, or improper planting. At Ken Southard Landscaping, we assess your specific conditions, recommend salt-tolerant native plants, and provide proper soil amendments and watering strategies to revive or replace struggling shrubs for long-term health.
How do you fix poor lawn grading issues in my yard?
Poor lawn grading can lead to water pooling, erosion, or drainage problems, especially in Ocean City's flat terrain. Our team evaluates your yard's slope, uses grading techniques to redirect water away from your home, and implements solutions like French drains or regrading to prevent damage and improve lawn health.
What landscaping services do you offer to prevent these common issues?
We offer a range of services tailored to Ocean City's needs, including soil testing and improvement, proper plant selection and installation, drainage system installation, and ongoing maintenance plans. By addressing root causes like soil quality and water management, we help prevent issues like dying shrubs and poor grading before they start.
