Nguyens Landscaping - Covington's Experienced Landscaping

Moss often indicates underlying issues like compacted soil, poor drainage, or lack of sunlight. At Nguyens, we start with a thorough assessment. Our solution typically involves core aeration to relieve compaction, dethatching to remove the moss layer, and adjusting soil pH with targeted amendments. We then overseed with shade-tolerant grass blends suited for our area and can design strategic landscaping, like proper grading or retaining walls, to improve long-term drainage and health.

Absolutely. Dying shrubs in Covington can result from root rot from wet soil, pest infestation, or improper pruning. Our shrub care service includes a detailed inspection to identify the cause. We may recommend corrective pruning, soil treatments, or, if necessary, shrub removal and replacement with native, disease-resistant varieties better suited to your specific site conditions. We also offer shrub transplanting to relocate a healthy plant to a more suitable spot in your yard.

Proper hardscaping is key for managing Covington's moisture. A professionally built retaining wall can stabilize slopes and prevent soil erosion that drowns plant roots. Patios and walkways installed with correct grading direct water away from your home and garden beds. By solving chronic drainage issues, these structures create a stable foundation for your landscape, reducing waterlogged soil that leads to moss and root rot, and ensuring your lawn, shrubs, and trees have a healthier environment to thrive.
