Frequently Asked Questions
My shrubs in Albany keep dying, and my mulch beds are full of weeds. What's the first step I should take?
This is a common issue here, often linked to poor drainage, soil compaction, or underlying plant health problems. The best first step is a professional assessment. We'll check for signs of disease or insect infestation in your shrubs, evaluate your soil and grading, and review your mulch bed preparation. Often, solutions like strategic regrading, proper shrub care (including treatment or transplanting), and installing fresh mulch with a quality weed barrier can resolve these persistent problems and restore your landscape's health.
Can you design and install a new landscape that prevents these weed and shrub problems from the start?
Absolutely. Our landscape design and construction services focus on creating sustainable, low-maintenance outdoor spaces suited for Albany's conditions. We design proper grading and drainage plans, select hardy, disease-resistant plants appropriate for our zone, and use professional installation techniques for irrigation and hardscaping like patios and walkways. For mulch beds, we prepare the soil correctly and can recommend or install long-lasting ground covers or edging systems that significantly reduce weed intrusion, giving your new landscape a healthy foundation.
Beyond basic lawn care, what ongoing maintenance do you offer to protect my investment in shrubs and trees?
We offer dedicated shrub and tree care services to keep your landscape vibrant. This includes seasonal pruning and trimming to promote good health and air circulation, proactive disease and insect management programs, and deep root fertilization. For mulch beds, our regular landscape maintenance includes weed removal, refreshing mulch as needed, and monitoring for any signs of plant stress. This holistic approach goes beyond mowing to address the specific needs of your plants, preventing the common issues of decline and weed takeover.
