Patchy grass here is often due to compacted soil, shade, or specific wear patterns. The most effective solution typically starts with core aeration to relieve compaction and improve nutrient uptake, followed by overseeding with a grass blend suited for our local climate. Proper watering after seeding is crucial. We assess your specific lawn conditions to create a tailored repair plan that addresses the root cause, not just the symptoms.

Poor grading directs water toward your home's foundation or creates soggy, unusable low spots in your yard, which can also drown grass roots. In East Hampton, this can lead to foundation issues and mosquito breeding grounds. We fix it by carefully reshaping the soil's slope using professional grading equipment. This ensures water drains away from structures and disperses evenly, protecting your property and creating a stable, level base for a healthier lawn.

We always recommend correcting significant grading issues first. Proper drainage is foundational; without it, water will pool and undermine any new grass seed or sod, leading to recurring patchiness. Once the yard is graded correctly to manage water flow, we can then effectively address patchy areas with soil amendments and seeding. This sequential approach provides a lasting solution and is the most efficient use of your investment.
