Nazario Garay - Mount Prospect's Experienced Landscaping Services

The first step is a site assessment to identify the cause. Common issues in our area include improper grading, compacted soil, or clogged drainage. I'll evaluate your yard's slope and soil to create a tailored plan, often starting with strategic grading or installing a French drain system to channel water away from your home and garden beds.

In Mount Prospect, dying shrubs are often a sign of 'wet feet' from poor drainage, not lack of water. When soil is constantly saturated, roots suffocate and rot. I can improve soil aeration and drainage around your plantings, and recommend replacing affected shrubs with native, water-tolerant species better suited to our local conditions.

Absolutely. Protecting your foundation is a priority. Solutions include regrading the soil to slope away from your house, installing downspout extensions, and creating dry wells or channel drains. These methods effectively redirect rainwater and melting snow, safeguarding your foundation's integrity and preventing basement moisture issues common in our community.
