Landscaping Services Rochester NY | Call Prestige Plowing and Landscaping

It's often both. Bare patches and fungus in Rochester can stem from surface issues like compacted soil or thatch, but also from underlying problems like poor drainage. Our approach starts with expert disease management for your lawn and shrub care to treat the immediate issue. Then, we assess if construction solutions, such as regrading during a patio or walkway installation, are needed to improve water flow and prevent future problems, creating a healthier landscape from the ground up.

Absolutely. Proper hardscape construction is key to solving drainage issues common in our area. A strategically installed retaining wall can manage slope and erosion, while a patio or walkway built with correct materials and grading can direct water away from lawn areas. By addressing the root cause of excess moisture, these features don't just add beauty—they create a drier, healthier environment that discourages lawn fungus and promotes robust turf growth.

Our Rochester-focused landscape design service creates a cohesive plan that balances beauty with durability. We select hardy, disease-resistant plants suited for our zone and design layouts that incorporate functional elements like greenspaces and walkways to improve traffic flow and reduce soil compaction. The design phase also plans for proper construction and installation techniques—ensuring good drainage for patios and healthy planting beds—to build a landscape that resists bare patches and disease from the start, saving you time and maintenance down the road.
