Q&A
What's the most common cause of dead grass spots in Myrtle Beach lawns, and how do you fix them?
In our area, dead spots are often caused by a combination of sandy soil that doesn't retain nutrients well, fungal issues from our humidity, or improper watering. We start with a soil test to identify the exact issue. Our fix typically involves core aeration to improve soil health, targeted fungicide or fertilizer application, and overseeding with grass varieties proven to thrive along the Grand Strand. This addresses the root cause for a long-term solution.
My yard has areas that hold water after it rains. What can Smith's Landscaping do?
Standing water is a common issue in Myrtle Beach due to our flat terrain and dense soil layers. We solve this by evaluating your yard's grading and drainage. Solutions often include regrading to create a gentle slope away from your home, installing French drains or dry creek beds to channel water, and using strategic landscaping to improve absorption. Our goal is to redirect water efficiently, protect your foundation, and eliminate soggy, mosquito-prone areas.
Can you help with both lawn repair and drainage issues at the same time?
Absolutely. In fact, addressing drainage is often the first step to successful lawn repair. We'll create a comprehensive plan that first corrects the water flow and soil compaction causing the problems. Once proper drainage is established, we repair the lawn with soil amendments, aeration, and seeding. This integrated approach ensures your new grass has the healthy, well-drained foundation it needs to last, saving you time and money on repeated fixes.
