May Lawn Care: Certified Landscaping Services Serving Columbia, SC 29223

We start with a site evaluation to identify the cause, which is often poor grading or compacted soil common in our area. Our solutions typically involve regrading to create proper runoff, installing French drains or catch basins to channel water away, or implementing strategic aeration to improve soil absorption. This not only eliminates soggy spots but also protects your lawn's root system from rot.

Due to our heat and humidity, brown patch and large patch fungus are very common here, appearing as circular brown areas in the lawn. We provide expert diagnosis to confirm the specific fungus, followed by targeted fungicide applications at the correct time in its life cycle. We also advise on proper watering and mowing practices to prevent future outbreaks.

Absolutely. Our preventative approach includes core aeration to alleviate soil compaction and improve drainage, along with customized seasonal fertilization plans that strengthen your grass to better resist disease. We also offer consultations on irrigation system adjustments to avoid overwatering, a key contributor to both standing water and fungus in our local climate.
