Frequently Asked Questions
How can Ruva 22 Landscaping fix poor lawn grading in my Chicago yard?
We start with a thorough assessment of your yard's slope and drainage patterns, which is crucial in Chicago where heavy rains and snowmelt can cause water pooling. Our team then performs professional regrading using specialized equipment to create the proper slope (typically 2-3% away from your home's foundation). This prevents water damage to your property and eliminates muddy areas, while ensuring your lawn drains effectively throughout our region's wet seasons.
What causes patchy grass in Chicago lawns, and how do you address it?
Patchy grass in Chicago often results from compacted clay soil, improper mowing, seasonal stress, or disease. We begin with soil testing to identify specific issues, then implement solutions like core aeration to relieve compaction, overseeding with region-appropriate grass blends, and adjusting irrigation practices. Our approach focuses on building healthy soil ecosystems that support thick turf capable of withstanding Chicago's temperature fluctuations and precipitation patterns.
What maintenance services do you recommend for keeping a Chicago lawn healthy?
For Chicago lawns, we recommend seasonal aeration (spring and fall), regular fertilization tailored to our growing season, proper mowing at 3-3.5 inches to encourage deep roots, and irrigation adjustments based on rainfall. We also provide disease prevention treatments specific to common Midwest lawn fungi. Our maintenance plans are customized to your yard's sun exposure, soil type, and microclimate within the Chicago area.
