Certified Landscaping Services in Forest City, PA 18421 - Long Pond Landscaping & Excavating

Standing water often indicates poor soil grading or compacted earth. Our excavation service reshapes your yard's terrain, creating a gentle slope that directs water away from your home and foundation. We can also remove impacted soil and replace it with better-draining material, solving the pooling issue at its source to protect your landscaping and property.

In our area, dying shrubs are frequently caused by ""wet feet"" from poor drainage or being planted in unsuitable locations. Our landscape design process starts with a site analysis to identify these issues. We then create a custom plan that selects native, water-tolerant plants and positions them in optimal spots, often incorporating raised beds or dry creek beds from our excavation work to ensure long-term plant health.

Trench digging is a crucial service for installing subsurface drainage systems, like French drains or downspout extensions, which are highly effective for Forest City properties dealing with runoff or soggy soil. We dig precise trenches to channel water away from problem areas, safeguarding your lawn, garden, and home's foundation from water damage. This is often a key first step before our final landscape design and planting.
