Furthermore, they implement effective weed control and lawn care programs, transforming weedy, uneven lawns into lush, level, and resilient landscapes that enhance curb appeal and property value.

Q&A

How can Rathfons fix the drainage and pooling issues in my Selinsgrove yard?

Poor grading is a frequent issue in our area. We start by assessing your property's slope and water flow. Our solutions often include regrading the lawn to create a gentle slope away from your home, installing French drains or catch basins to channel water effectively, and ensuring your downspouts are properly extended. This prevents foundation damage, eliminates soggy spots, and creates a healthier environment for your grass to thrive.

What's the best strategy for getting rid of stubborn weeds in Central PA?

Weeds like crabgrass and dandelions are tough here. A one-time treatment rarely works. Our approach combines pre-emergent applications in early spring to stop weed seeds from germinating, followed by targeted post-emergent treatments for existing weeds. Crucially, we strengthen your lawn through core aeration and proper fertilization, helping your grass outcompete weeds naturally. It's a season-long program for lasting results.

Can you handle both the grading and the landscaping to make my yard look good after the repair?

Absolutely. We're a full-service company. First, our hardscapes team will correct the grading and drainage to solve the functional problem. Then, our landscaping experts can seamlessly restore or renovate the area. This can include laying fresh topsoil, re-sodding or overseeding with quality grass blends suited for our region, and even adding decorative elements like stone borders or planting beds to give you a beautiful, functional yard you'll enjoy for years.
