Landscaping Marlborough MA | Call Modern Grounds Landscape & Hardscape

Poor grading directs water toward your foundation, causing damage. Our landscape design process begins with a site analysis to identify low spots and water flow patterns. We then regrade the lawn to create a gentle slope away from your home, often integrating solutions like French drains or dry creek beds. This corrects the drainage issue at its source, protecting your property's structure and creating a healthier landscape foundation.

Absolutely. Shifting rocks are often caused by improper base preparation or soil erosion. We design and install rock gardens with a stable foundation, using landscape fabric and proper edging to lock stones in place. For sloped areas common in Marlborough, we may incorporate retaining walls or strategic planting to stabilize the soil. Our designs ensure your rock garden remains beautiful and intact for years to come.
