Old Dominion Gardens & Land Services: Local Landscaping Serving Richmond, VA 23235

Dry patches are often caused by soil compaction or uneven sprinkler coverage. We perform a thorough assessment, using techniques like core aeration to relieve compaction and adjusting or repairing your irrigation system to ensure even water distribution, which is crucial for healthy turf in our local climate.

The most effective first step is core aeration. This process removes small plugs of soil, allowing air, water, and nutrients to penetrate the root zone. For Richmond yards, we recommend this service, especially after heavy use or in high-traffic areas, to alleviate compaction and promote stronger root growth.

This is a common sign of poor sprinkler coverage or head alignment. We perform an irrigation audit to map your system's spray patterns, identify gaps or overlaps, and make precise adjustments or repairs. Proper coverage ensures every part of your lawn gets the water it needs without waste.
