Rakim & Sons Get it Done Landscaping - Tucson's Best Landscaping

Sunburned turf is a common Tucson issue, often worsened by improper watering or compacted soil. At Rakim & Sons, we first assess your irrigation system to ensure deep, even watering at the right times of day. We may recommend aeration to relieve soil compaction and overseeding with heat-tolerant grass varieties. Often, the solution combines adjusting your watering schedule with targeted soil amendments to help your lawn recover and build resilience against our intense sun.

Absolutely. Choosing the right plants is crucial for a low-maintenance, thriving landscape here. We specialize in native and desert-adapted plants that are proven to withstand Tucson's heat, low humidity, and alkaline soil. We'll consider your yard's specific sun exposure and design preferences to recommend options like desert willow, penstemon, or agave that provide beauty without constant watering or fuss, saving you time and resources.

Water conservation is a top priority for us and many Tucson homeowners. We design and install efficient drip irrigation systems that deliver water directly to plant roots, minimizing evaporation and runoff. Combined with our expertise in xeriscaping—using drought-tolerant plants, mulch, and strategic design—we can create a beautiful, lush-looking landscape that uses a fraction of the water a traditional lawn requires, helping you save money and our local water supply.
