Landscaping Clawson MI | Call M. O'Connell Landscaping

For overgrown shrubs common in our area, a professional assessment and phased trimming plan is key. We don't just shear them back; we evaluate the plant's health and structure, performing selective pruning to encourage new growth from the inside out. This method, done at the right time of year, restores a natural, manageable shape and improves the plant's long-term vitality, solving that unkempt look for good.

Signs include water pooling on the surface after rain, thin or patchy grass, and difficulty pushing a tool into the soil. In Clawson's older neighborhoods, compaction is very common. We fix it with core aeration, which removes small plugs of soil to relieve pressure. This allows air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots again, leading to a thicker, healthier lawn that can better withstand our local climate.

Absolutely. Compacted or poor-quality soil is a major barrier to vibrant flower beds. We offer soil testing and amendment services tailored to Clawson's conditions. Based on the results, we can incorporate organic compost or other materials to improve soil structure, drainage, and fertility. This foundational work gives your plants the best possible environment to establish strong roots and flourish season after season.
