Landscaping Services Bath MI | Call Northern Landscape

We offer several solutions tailored to Bath's common root issues. For minor surface roots, we can carefully prune them and then grade the area with high-quality topsoil and sod. For more extensive damage, we often recommend transitioning the area to a beautiful, low-maintenance ground cover or creating a decorative mulch bed around the tree base. Our goal is to protect your tree's health while giving you a usable, attractive yard.

Core aeration is the most effective treatment for the heavy, compacted clay soils common in the Bath area. Our professional aeration service removes small plugs of soil, allowing vital air, water, and nutrients to reach the grass roots. We typically recommend this service in the fall or spring. For severely compacted areas, we may also suggest a top-dressing with compost to further improve soil structure and health over time.

Absolutely. A proactive approach is key. During our consultation, we can assess your trees and recommend a long-term landscaping plan. This might include installing a root barrier when planting new trees, choosing appropriate grass or plant species for shady, root-filled areas, and setting up a regular maintenance schedule that includes careful aeration to encourage deep root growth away from the surface.
