Common Questions
What causes the dead patches in my East Orange lawn, and how can you fix them?
Dead patches here are often due to a combination of compacted soil, fungal disease, or improper watering. At Melgar's Landscape, we start with a soil analysis to identify the root cause. Our solution typically includes core aeration to relieve compaction, targeted overseeding with hardy grass varieties suited for our area, and a customized fertilization plan to bring your entire lawn back to a uniform, healthy green.
My yard in East Orange floods after heavy rain. What drainage solutions do you offer?
Poor drainage is a common issue in our neighborhood due to soil composition and lot grading. We offer several solutions, including installing French drains to channel water away from problem areas, creating dry creek beds for both function and aesthetics, and regrading sections of your yard to ensure water flows properly away from your home's foundation, protecting your property from water damage.
Can you handle both my drainage issue and my lawn repair at the same time?
Absolutely. In fact, addressing drainage is often the first step to a healthy lawn. We create a comprehensive plan that solves the water issue first—whether through grading or drain installation—and then follows with lawn repair like aeration and seeding. This integrated approach ensures your new grass won't be washed away and gives you a lasting, beautiful result for your East Orange property.
