Trusted Landscaping in Alburgh, VT 05440 - Northern Lights Masonry & Brickwork

Absolutely. We often find that lawn and sprinkler problems in our area are connected to underlying soil or drainage issues. Our process starts with an inspection of your irrigation system for repairs, but we also assess the grading and soil health. We can regrade the area to improve water flow, repair or redesign the irrigation for efficiency, and then reseed or sod the bare patches. It's a comprehensive approach that fixes the cause, not just the symptom, saving you water and ensuring a healthier lawn.

For older homes in Alburgh and the islands, we prioritize preservation and stability. Our process begins with a thorough inspection to identify the cause of settlement or cracking. We specialize in using traditional materials like lime mortar, which is more flexible and breathable than modern cement, making it ideal for historic foundations. Repairs may involve careful repointing, installing new footings, or implementing specialized drainage solutions to address water issues. Our goal is to make your foundation safe and secure for the long term while respecting the home's original character.

Yes, we provide a complete service. We start by consulting with you on the design, considering the view, sun exposure, and how you want to use the space. Our team then handles all construction: excavating and preparing the site, building a structurally sound retaining wall if needed, and installing the patio with proper drainage. Finally, we can complete the project with landscape installation, choosing plants suited for the lakefront environment, and even include ongoing maintenance. We manage every phase to ensure a cohesive and durable result.
