M & G Landscaping and Construction | Expert Landscapers in Union Beach, NJ

Given our local climate with seasonal freeze-thaw cycles and salt air, a durable patio requires proper base preparation and material selection. We focus on constructing a solid, well-draining gravel base to prevent shifting and heaving. For materials, we often recommend pavers or concrete with a sealed finish for added resilience against moisture and salt. Our owner, Mike, oversees the installation to ensure every step, from grading to compaction, is done correctly with quality materials, creating a lasting outdoor space for your home.

Absolutely. Dead lawn areas and damaged edging are common issues here, often due to soil compaction, drainage problems, or wear from weather and maintenance. We start by diagnosing the root cause—checking soil health, irrigation coverage, and drainage. For repair, we can regrade, aerate, and reseed or sod the affected areas. For edging, we install durable masonry or concrete borders that are set deep enough to withstand lawnmowers and seasonal ground movement, providing a clean, long-lasting definition to your landscape beds.

Yes, we provide a complete service from initial design to final construction. For a project like a retaining wall, our design process considers your property's specific grading, soil type, and drainage needs to ensure structural integrity and aesthetic appeal. Owner Mike then manages the construction phase on-site, using appropriate materials and techniques—whether it's segmental blocks, poured concrete, or stone—to build a wall that is not only functional for managing soil erosion but also complements your overall landscape. This integrated approach ensures the finished project matches the planned design.
