McGrain Land Services | Best Landscapers in Howell, MI

We assess the underlying cause, which in our local soil is often compaction or poor nutrient levels. Our service includes core aeration to relieve soil compaction, followed by overseeding with hardy grass varieties suited to Michigan's climate and top-dressing to promote healthy, even growth and eliminate those unsightly patches.

Standing water can damage your lawn's root system. We provide expert grading and drainage solutions tailored to your property's specific slope and soil type. This often involves creating subtle swales or installing French drain systems to redirect water away from problem areas, protecting your landscape's foundation.

For lawn restoration like patching, early fall or spring is ideal, as cooler temperatures and moisture support seed germination. For drainage work to combat standing water, addressing it before the heavy spring rains or snowmelt is key. We can provide a consultation to plan the most effective timing for your project.
