Robinson Landscaping - Novato's Reliable Landscaping Services

Absolutely. Clogged drip irrigation and dry spots are common issues in Novato, often caused by our water's mineral content and system design. We start by testing your water pressure and inspecting the entire system for clogs, faulty emitters, and uneven zone coverage. For lawns, we assess soil compaction and thatch, which can prevent water penetration. Our solutions typically include installing proper filtration, flushing the lines, adjusting emitter placement, and implementing aeration for lawns. We can also redesign zones to ensure more efficient water distribution, a key part of our water conservation focus.

Our full-scale landscape construction begins with a consultation to understand your vision and site conditions. We then create a detailed plan that integrates hardscapes—like patios, walkways, and retaining walls—with softscapes of appropriate plants. Our licensed team handles all phases: carpentry for decks or fences, installing drainage systems, building water features, and executing the planting plan. We manage the entire project, ensuring all work meets building codes and our quality standards. The process concludes with a walkthrough and guidance on your new landscape's care, with optional maintenance plans available.

My degree in Ornamental Horticulture directly guides our plant selections. For Novato, we prioritize native and Mediterranean plants that are naturally adapted to our climate, requiring less water and being more resistant to local pests and diseases. When installing or caring for shrubs, this means choosing varieties that thrive here, using proper planting techniques to ensure establishment, and applying targeted, minimal-intervention care for insect or disease issues. The goal is to create a resilient, lower-maintenance garden that conserves water and remains healthy year-round with appropriate pruning and care.
