Kross & Dekker Landscaping: Expert Landscapers Serving Fort Pierce, FL 34945

This is a common question for our local lawns. Tree root damage typically creates visible ridges or raised areas in the turf, making the ground uneven. Pest damage, like from chinch bugs or sod webworms common here, often appears as irregular brown or yellow patches where the grass blades are chewed or dried out. A Kross & Dekker expert can perform a thorough inspection to accurately diagnose the issue and recommend the right treatment, whether it's root pruning and leveling or targeted pest control.

Simply adding soil over the surface roots is a temporary fix. Our recommended approach involves carefully pruning the problematic surface roots to prevent future damage, then expertly grading and leveling the area. We'll topdress with quality soil and either re-sod or oversee with grass varieties suited for our local climate. This method addresses the root cause, restores a smooth, safe lawn surface, and promotes healthy regrowth for a lasting solution.
