FAQs

Why do weeds keep coming back in my Clifton mulch beds, and how can Mike's Landscaping stop them?

Weeds often return because the bed wasn't properly cleared or a quality weed barrier wasn't installed. In Clifton's climate, seeds easily germinate in shallow mulch. We solve this by thoroughly removing existing weeds and roots, applying a professional-grade landscape fabric, and topping it with a thick layer of fresh mulch. This combination smothers growth and creates a clean, long-lasting barrier that keeps your beds looking pristine.

What's causing dead patches in my Clifton lawn, and can it be fixed?

Dead patches here are commonly caused by soil compaction, grub damage, or fungal issues. We start with a free assessment to diagnose the exact cause on your property. Our fix typically involves core aeration to relieve compaction, targeted treatments for pests or disease, and overseeding with hardy grass varieties suited to North Jersey's soil. This approach revives your lawn's health and density, preventing future bare spots.

As a Clifton homeowner, when is the best time to address my lawn and mulch bed problems?

For mulch beds, early spring or fall is ideal for refreshing and weed-proofing before peak growing seasons. For lawn repair, early fall is prime time in our area, as cooler temperatures and autumn rains help new grass establish strong roots. However, we offer solutions year-round and can create a maintenance plan tailored to your property's specific needs and Clifton's seasonal changes.
