Common Questions
What's the best way to fix the bare patches in my Dexter lawn?
Bare patches here are often due to soil compaction, shade from mature trees, or wear and tear. Our lawn care service goes beyond simple seeding. We start with a soil analysis, then use core aeration to relieve compaction, followed by overseeding with shade-tolerant grass blends suited for our area. This comprehensive approach addresses the cause, not just the symptom, for a lasting repair.
Can tree care services help prevent weeds in my mulch beds?
Absolutely. Weeds in mulch beds are a frequent issue in Dexter. Proper tree care is part of the solution. Our services include applying fresh mulch at the correct depth (2-3 inches) around your trees and shrubs, which creates a physical barrier to block sunlight and suppress weed seeds. We also ensure mulch isn't piled against tree trunks (""volcano mulching""), which can harm trees and actually encourage weed growth. Healthy trees and proper mulching work together for a cleaner landscape.
When should I consider tree removal versus tree care for a problematic tree?
In many cases, our expert tree care services—like pruning, cabling, or health treatments—can save a tree and enhance your landscape. However, removal is the safest and most practical choice for trees that are dead, dying, pose a hazard to your home, or are causing excessive lawn damage due to dense shade or root competition that leads to those bare patches. We provide a free, honest assessment to recommend the best solution for your Dexter property's safety and beauty.
