Landscape Management, LLC | Certified Landscaping in Detroit, MI

The most effective method involves carefully removing the surface roots causing the damage, then leveling the area with topsoil. We then re-seed or install new sod specifically chosen for its durability in our local climate. It's crucial to address the root cause—sometimes involving strategic root pruning or barrier installation—to prevent the problem from recurring and ensure a smooth, safe lawn.

Bare patches in Detroit lawns are often caused by a combination of compacted clay soil, heavy shade, disease, or improper watering. Prevention starts with a soil test to identify deficiencies. We then recommend core aeration to relieve compaction, overseeding with shade-tolerant grass blends, and implementing a proper watering schedule. Addressing these underlying issues is key to establishing a thick, resilient turf that crowds out weeds and resists disease.

Absolutely. Our approach prioritizes tree health. We use specialized techniques to prune only the specific surface roots causing the lawn damage, avoiding major structural roots. After pruning, we repair the lawn using methods that minimize further root disturbance. Protecting the tree's health is essential, as a stressed tree can become a greater liability. We assess each situation to ensure a safe, effective solution for both your lawn and your trees.
