Lori's Green Thumb | Landscaping Services in Tuolumne, CA 95379

Great question! Our landscape design process starts by assessing your property's specific slope and soil composition—common factors in our area that cause shifting. We use proper excavation, a stable base layer of compacted gravel, and strategic placement of larger anchor stones to create a secure foundation. This thoughtful design, tailored to Tuolumne's terrain, ensures your rock garden stays beautifully in place for years to come.

Absolutely. Unexplained high water bills are a frequent sign of irrigation leaks, a very common issue here. Part of our dedicated landscape maintenance service includes a seasonal inspection of your entire irrigation system. We check for leaks at valves, sprinkler heads, and underground lines, repair them promptly, and adjust watering schedules for efficiency. This not only saves you money but is crucial for responsible water use in our community.

Our gardening service goes beyond basic planting and weeding. We take a holistic approach to plant health, which is often impacted by irrigation issues or unstable soil. We monitor plants for signs of over or under-watering that might indicate a leak, and we select and place plants in your garden beds or rockeries with stability in mind. This expert care helps your entire landscape—from flowers to ground cover—thrive while mitigating common local problems.
