Reliable Landscaping | Licensed Landscapers in Sands Point, NY

Standing water often stems from improper grading or compacted soil common in our area. The most effective solution is to install a French drain or a dry well system. This involves creating a gravel-filled trench that collects and redirects water away from your home's foundation and low spots. We assess your yard's specific slope and soil to design a drainage plan that prevents future pooling and protects your landscape.

For overgrown shrubs, we recommend a multi-step approach. First, we perform a rejuvenation pruning, cutting back old growth to encourage healthy new stems. For severely overgrown plants, this may be done over several seasons. We then establish a regular trimming schedule to maintain shape and health. This not only improves curb appeal but also prevents disease by increasing air circulation within the plant.

Absolutely. Proactive maintenance is key. We offer seasonal plans that include core aeration to reduce soil compaction, proper mulching to regulate moisture, and strategic pruning. For new plantings, we select native species suited to Sands Point's soil that require less water and are more resistant to local pests. A consistent care schedule is the best defense against common problems like waterlogging and overgrowth.
