Moten Landscaping: Licensed Landscapers Serving Columbia, SC 29210

Dead spots in Columbia are often caused by compacted soil, which prevents water and nutrients from reaching the grassroots, or by poor drainage leading to root rot. Moten Landscaping addresses this by first diagnosing the specific cause. We then perform core aeration to relieve soil compaction and improve nutrient uptake, and we can overseed the affected areas with grass varieties suited to our local climate to promote a thick, healthy, and uniform lawn.

Standing water is a common issue in our area due to heavy clay soils and flat terrain. The best long-term fix is to improve the yard's grading and install a proper drainage system. Moten Landscaping expertly assesses your property's slope and can implement solutions like French drains, dry creek beds, or regrading to channel water away from your home's foundation and into appropriate drainage areas, effectively eliminating soggy spots and protecting your property.

Absolutely. At Moten Landscaping, we believe functionality and beauty go hand-in-hand. We design drainage solutions that are integrated seamlessly into your landscape. For example, a French drain can be disguised with decorative river rock, and a regraded area can be prepped for new sod or attractive ground cover. We solve the core water issue first, then restore or enhance the aesthetics of your lawn, giving you a yard that's both dry and beautiful.
