Mellinger Landscaping - Wheatland's Top-Rated Landscaping Services

Standing water often points to a drainage or soil compaction issue common in our area. The most effective first step is a professional assessment. We typically recommend core aeration to relieve soil compaction, followed by strategic grading to direct water away from your home and foundation. For persistent problems, we might install a simple French drain or dry creek bed, using local materials for a natural look that handles our seasonal rainfall.

Bare patches in Wheatland are frequently caused by a combination of compacted soil, poor drainage, and nutrient-deficient topsoil. Simply reseeding often fails. Our approach starts with aerating the soil to improve oxygen and water penetration. We then add a layer of quality topsoil mixed with organic compost to rebuild a healthy base before overseeding with a hardy grass blend suited for our Wyoming climate. This tackles the root cause for longer-lasting results.

Absolutely. These issues are very connected here in Platte County. Our integrated service starts by correcting the drainage through grading or aeration to move water away from trouble spots. Once the water is managed, we rejuvenate the lawn by amending the soil and overseeding. We create a customized plan that addresses both problems together, saving you time and money while giving you a yard that's both functional and green.
