Landscaping Services Yonkers NY | Call Luciano Landscape

For lasting results on Yonkers lawns, we recommend a process that addresses the underlying cause. This typically involves loosening the compacted soil, adding a nutrient-rich topsoil amendment suited to our local conditions, and then overseeding with a durable grass blend. Proper watering is key. We can assess whether your bare patches are due to soil issues, shade, or foot traffic and apply the correct fix.

Absolutely. Surface tree roots are a common issue in Yonkers. Instead of removing the roots—which can harm the tree—we expertly grade the area and add a layer of topsoil to create a smooth, level surface. We then install a shade-tolerant sod or seed that can thrive in the tree's root zone. This approach protects your tree's health while restoring a safe, green lawn for your family.

Prevention starts with understanding your soil. We conduct a basic assessment to check for compaction and nutrient levels common in our area. Core aeration in the fall relieves compaction, while a tailored fertilization program strengthens the grass. We also advise on proper mowing heights and seasonal care specific to the Yonkers climate, building a thicker turf that naturally crowds out weeds and resists damage.
