Frequently Asked Questions
My yard in Berlin has a spot that's always soggy. What can Marc's Landscaping do to fix this standing water?
We see this often in our area due to soil composition and grading. Marc's Landscaping will assess the specific drainage issue, which may involve installing a French drain, dry well, or regrading the land to redirect water away from your home and lawn. Our goal is to eliminate the soggy spot and prevent foundation damage or mosquito breeding, giving you a dry, usable yard again.
Tree roots are ruining my lawn, making it lumpy and uneven. Can you help without harming the tree?
Absolutely. This is a common challenge with mature trees in Berlin. We carefully grade the area and add a layer of topsoil to create a smooth, level surface over the roots, then re-seed with shade-tolerant grass. For severe cases, we may recommend strategic root pruning or creating a decorative mulch bed around the tree base. Our methods protect the tree's health while restoring a safe, even lawn for your family.
What's the first step if I have both drainage issues and root damage in my yard?
The first step is a comprehensive site evaluation. We'll identify the primary cause—often, poor drainage weakens grass, making root damage more apparent. We typically address the drainage issue first to ensure a stable, dry base. Then, we can properly grade and repair the lawn damaged by roots. Tackling problems in the right order is key to a lasting solution, and we'll provide a clear, prioritized plan for your Berlin property.
