Kessler Lawn & Tree - Smithfield's Emergency Landscaping

Poor grading, a common issue in Smithfield due to our soil composition and rainfall, can cause water to pool near your foundation, leading to potential basement flooding, erosion, and structural damage over time. At Kessler Lawn & Tree, we fix this by expertly regrading your lawn. We reshape the soil's slope to create positive drainage away from your home, using specialized equipment to ensure precision. This not only protects your foundation but also promotes a healthier, less soggy lawn.

Damaged edging is a frequent problem that can make an otherwise nice yard look unkempt. We offer a couple of expert solutions. For minor damage, we can often repair and re-secure your existing edging. For a more durable, long-term solution—especially with materials like plastic that become brittle—we recommend replacement. We install robust, clean-edged borders using materials like metal or heavy-duty polymer that can withstand Smithfield's weather, keeping mulch in and grass out for a crisp, maintained look year-round.

Addressing both grading and edging together provides a comprehensive solution for your yard's health and appearance. Proper grading solves the underlying drainage issue, while new edging defines and protects the corrected areas. This combination ensures water flows correctly *and* that your garden beds and lawn edges remain distinct and tidy, preventing soil washout and grass encroachment. It's a smart, efficient approach we often recommend to Smithfield neighbors to achieve lasting curb appeal and protect their property investment.
