Landscapers Republic MO | Call Richart's Stone & Garden

In our area, prevention is key. We focus on improving soil drainage and air circulation, which are often the root causes. Using stone for pathways and patios in wet areas reduces standing water, while strategic grading and proper edging materials prevent moisture from pooling against your home's foundation or in lawn depressions, creating an environment where fungus struggles to take hold.

Plastic edging often cracks and becomes displaced due to our soil's freeze-thaw cycles and mower damage. For a permanent solution in Republic, we install sturdy stone or paver edging. This not only defines your garden beds with a clean, crisp line but also acts as a physical barrier that protects your lawn from garden soil and mulch, while standing up to years of weather and maintenance.

Absolutely. Incorporating stone elements is a proactive approach. A properly installed flagstone patio or gravel pathway with a solid base eliminates soggy grass patches where fungus grows. Simultaneously, using natural stone as a border creates a permanent, attractive edge that won't warp or break. It's a dual-purpose investment that enhances your landscape's beauty and functionality for the long term.
