Martin's Property Care | Licensed Landscapers in Binghamton, NY

A shifting rock garden often indicates unstable soil or improper drainage beneath it. Our excavation service carefully removes the rocks and materials, then re-grades and compacts the sub-base to create a solid, level foundation. We can also install proper drainage solutions during this process to prevent future shifting caused by frost heave or water saturation, common in our local climate.

Poor lawn grading directs water toward your home's foundation, which can cause basement flooding and structural damage—a frequent issue here. Our lawn care service includes expert regrading. We strategically add or remove soil to create a gentle slope away from your foundation, ensuring rainwater and melt runoff flow safely into your yard or storm drains, protecting your property's integrity.

Trench digging is a precise solution for managing water. We dig trenches to install French drains, downspout extensions, or channel drains, which collect and redirect water away from problem areas like soggy lawns or foundation walls. This is crucial for correcting the poor drainage that exacerbates local issues like soil erosion and shifting landscapes, providing a long-term fix for wet basements and muddy yards.
