Landscapers Virginia Beach VA | Call McDonald Garden Center

Absolutely. Our landscape design service starts by diagnosing the cause of your bare patches, which in our area are often due to compacted soil, poor drainage, or unsuitable grass types. We don't just seed over the problem; we design a solution that may include soil aeration, amending with organic matter, and selecting hardy, heat-tolerant turfgrasses suited to our coastal climate. A proper design ensures healthy, even growth that resists future bare spots.

Dying shrubs are often a sign of being planted in the wrong location or soil. Our designers are experts in the local microclimates and soil conditions of Hampton Roads. We assess your site's sun exposure, wind patterns, and soil pH, then create a design using native and adapted shrubs that are proven to thrive here. We also design for proper spacing and drainage to prevent root rot, ensuring your new plantings have the best chance for long-term health.

Our process is collaborative and locally focused. First, we conduct a thorough consultation at your home to understand your vision and assess your property's specific challenges, like those bare patches or declining shrubs. We then create a custom plan that addresses soil health, plant selection for our coastal zone, irrigation efficiency, and aesthetic goals. We provide you with a detailed blueprint and plant list, and our team can handle the installation, ensuring the design is executed correctly to solve your landscape issues beautifully.
