Nellis Landscaping: Top-Rated Landscaping Serving Joliet, IL 60433

The most effective long-term solution for standing water in Joliet is to address the underlying drainage issue. We start by evaluating your yard's grading and often recommend installing a French drain system or a dry creek bed to redirect water away from your home's foundation and low spots. Correcting the grading ensures water flows properly, protecting your lawn's health and your property's value.

Moss in Joliet lawns is typically a symptom of compacted soil, poor drainage, excessive shade, or low soil fertility—conditions moss thrives in. To stop it, we focus on improving the environment for your grass. This includes core aeration to relieve compaction, adjusting soil pH and nutrients, and improving sunlight penetration through selective pruning. A healthy, dense lawn is the best defense against moss.
