Ricks Landscaping | Experienced Landscaping Services in Decatur, GA

Bare patches are often caused by poor soil, shade, or uneven watering. At Ricks Landscaping, we start by diagnosing the root cause. Our solution typically involves core aeration to improve soil health, followed by overseeding with grass varieties suited to Decatur's climate. For immediate results, we can install sod. Crucially, we'll inspect and adjust or repair your irrigation system to ensure the new grass receives consistent, adequate water—a key step for long-term success.

Absolutely. A dying lawn section often points to an irrigation problem, such as clogged heads or poor zone design, or a deeper issue like soil disease or pest infestation. Our service includes a thorough inspection of your irrigation system for repairs and a soil and turf analysis. We provide targeted disease and insect management for lawns and shrubs, correct the watering issue, and recommend a recovery plan involving aeration, dethatching, and proper fertilization to restore health.

Prevention starts with expert design and installation. Our landscape construction and greenscape design services focus on creating a sustainable environment. We select hardy, native plants, design efficient irrigation zones to eliminate dry areas, and ensure proper grading for drainage. After installation, our ongoing landscape maintenance and shrub care programs, including monitoring for disease and insects, proactively address issues before they cause damage, keeping your new Decatur landscape thriving.
