Pete Gumas Landscape Services: Professional Landscaping Services Serving Antioch, CA 94509

We use proven techniques to prevent mulch erosion. This includes properly grading the area for drainage, installing a quality landscape fabric barrier, and using a heavier, coarser mulch blend that interlocks and resists washing away. We also create shallow trenches or berms to redirect water flow, keeping your mulch in place and your landscape beds looking neat.

Yes, it's very common here due to mineral buildup from our hard water and power surges. We don't just replace the timer; we diagnose the root cause. Our service includes checking the electrical connection, cleaning internal components, and often installing a surge protector. We also recommend and install modern, Wi-Fi-enabled timers that are more reliable and allow for easy remote control, helping you save water and money.

The two key seasonal tasks are preparing for winter rains and adjusting for summer heat. Before winter, have us check your drainage and secure your mulch. In spring, a professional irrigation system check-up is crucial. We'll winterize your system in fall and activate it in spring, ensuring no freeze damage and that it's programmed efficiently for the hotter months, addressing our area's specific needs.
