Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in your monthly landscape maintenance for Charleston-area homes?
Our monthly maintenance is designed for the Lowcountry, focusing on the health and curb appeal of your property. Services typically include mowing, edging, blowing, shrub pruning and trimming, bed weeding, and a general inspection of your irrigation system and plant health. We proactively look for signs of common local issues like insect infestations or fungal diseases in shrubs and trees, allowing for early intervention to keep your landscape thriving year-round.
How do you prevent and manage weed infestation in mulch beds, a common problem here?
Weed pressure in mulch beds is a frequent challenge in our humid climate. Our approach starts with proper bed preparation and the application of a quality pre-emergent herbicide before installing fresh pine straw or mulch. For existing beds, our maintenance includes thorough hand-weeding and, when appropriate, targeted spot treatments. We also recommend maintaining an adequate mulch depth (2-3 inches) to suppress weeds naturally and conserve soil moisture, which is part of our regular service.
Do you handle the full process for a new irrigation system on Johns or Kiawah Island?
Yes, we provide complete irrigation services from design to ongoing maintenance. Our process begins with a site-specific irrigation design that accounts for your soil type, plant material, and sun exposure. We then handle all construction and installation, ensuring efficient coverage and compliance with local regulations. After installation, we offer repair and maintenance services, including seasonal adjustments and assessments, to keep your system running efficiently and conserve water—a key consideration for our coastal communities.
