Q&A
What's the best way to stop weeds from growing in my Baltimore mulch beds?
The key is a multi-step approach we use: first, we remove existing weeds and apply a pre-emergent barrier. Then, we install a fresh, thick layer of mulch (about 3 inches) to block sunlight and prevent new seeds from taking root. Proper edging around the beds also creates a clean barrier against grass and weed encroachment, a common issue in our local soils.
Why does moss keep growing in my lawn, and how can Smitty's help?
Moss thrives in shady, compacted, or poorly draining areas, which are common in many Baltimore yards. We help by aerating your lawn to relieve compaction, improving drainage with grading solutions, and testing your soil to adjust pH and nutrient levels. We also recommend proper mowing heights and thinning tree canopies to increase sunlight, creating an environment where your grass can outcompete the moss.
Can you handle both landscaping fixes and general handyman repairs for my yard?
Absolutely. As a combined handyman and landscaping service, we're uniquely equipped for Baltimore homes. We can repair a rotting fence or deck that borders your garden, install proper drainage to solve a mossy lawn issue, and build or mend hardscape features like retaining walls or patios—all while managing the surrounding landscaping needs. This integrated approach saves you time and ensures a cohesive solution.
