Mow and Glow - Nantucket's Top-Rated Landscapers

We use a multi-step approach tailored for our island. First, we apply a professional-grade landscape fabric or a thick layer of quality mulch to block sunlight. We then carefully edge the beds to create a clean barrier that prevents grass and weeds from creeping in. Finally, we can apply a targeted, eco-friendly pre-emergent treatment to stop weed seeds from germinating, keeping your beds looking pristine with much less maintenance.

For durability in our salt-air environment, we typically recommend and install sturdy, non-corrosive materials like powder-coated steel or heavy-duty polymer edging. These materials resist rust, warping, and degradation from moisture, holding their shape season after season. Proper installation is key—we ensure it's set deep and secure to prevent heaving from frost or erosion, giving you a crisp, long-lasting border that defines your landscape beautifully.

Absolutely. Repairing damaged edging is a common service for us. We'll assess the issue, whether it's from frost heave, corrosion, or impact, and recommend the best solution. Often, we can reinforce or replace just the damaged sections using matching materials to seamlessly blend with the existing work. This restores the clean lines of your landscape and reinstates the critical barrier that keeps mulch in and weeds out.
