Frequently Asked Questions
How does MSS Landscaping handle the soil and debris after a big storm in Pittsburgh?
We provide comprehensive storm debris cleanup, safely removing fallen branches and organic waste. For areas where heavy rain has caused soil compaction or pooling water, we offer professional earthmoving and regrading. This improves drainage, prevents future erosion, and prepares your land for healthy new landscaping, sod, or gardens.
Can you build a patio or retaining wall that will last through Pittsburgh's freeze-thaw cycles?
Absolutely. Our masonry and concrete construction focuses on durability for our local climate. We use proper base materials, drainage techniques, and sealing products specifically for patios, walkways, and retaining walls. This prevents cracking and heaving from freeze-thaw cycles, and our repair and resealing services help maintain these structures for years to come.
My shrubs are struggling and the soil seems hard. Is this related to Pittsburgh's common soil compaction?
Yes, compacted soil is a frequent issue here and can starve shrubs of water and oxygen. Our approach combines shrub care—including disease and insect management—with addressing the root cause. We can perform shrub transplanting to better areas and implement solutions like greenscape construction with aerated soil and proper irrigation design to ensure your plants thrive.
