FAQs
How can you help with standing water in my Hermiston yard?
Standing water often points to grading or drainage issues. We address this through landscape construction and installation, which can include re-grading your yard, installing French drains, or creating dry creek beds. We also ensure your irrigation system is properly maintained and not contributing to the problem. Correcting this protects your foundation and creates a healthier environment for your lawn and plants.
What's the best way to prevent weeds in my mulch beds?
Prevention starts with proper bed preparation and maintenance. During shrub planting or transplanting, we use quality landscape fabric and a thick layer of mulch to suppress weeds. Our ongoing shrub care, including pruning and disease management, keeps your plants vigorous so they outcompete weeds. For existing problems, our gardening and maintenance services include safe, effective weed removal and bed refurbishment.
My shrubs look sickly; is it pests or a disease?
In our local climate, it can be both. Our shrub care services include expert diagnosis for insect management and disease management specific to shrubs. We identify issues like spider mites or fungal diseases common in Hermiston and provide targeted treatments. Often, improving overall plant health through proper pruning, watering via irrigation maintenance, and soil care is the best long-term defense.
