Q&A
My shrubs keep dying and weeds take over my mulch beds in Evansville. What's the root cause, and how can Sonland help?
This is a common issue in our area, often caused by poor soil drainage, compaction, or incorrect planting. Our process starts with a site evaluation. We may recommend earthmoving or regrading to fix drainage, followed by expert landscape construction with proper soil preparation. Installing features like retaining walls or permeable walkways can also direct water flow. Finally, we use professional landscape design to select hardy, native plants and can install low-maintenance artificial turf or greenscapes to eliminate weed-prone mulch beds entirely.
I need a new patio but am worried about drainage and future weeds. What solutions do you offer for Evansville homeowners?
Excellent question. Proper base preparation is key to preventing weeds and water damage. For patio, porch, and walkway construction, we begin with precise excavation and removal of existing materials. We then install a robust, compacted gravel base with landscape fabric barriers to suppress weeds. For drainage, we can integrate solutions like slight grading away from your home or even construct accompanying retaining walls. Our holistic approach in the design and construction phase ensures your new hardscape is beautiful, durable, and solves those persistent local landscaping problems.
Can you remove a problematic tree and redesign my landscape to prevent the issues I'm having with weeds and unhealthy plants?
Absolutely. This is a specialty of ours. Our certified team can safely handle tree removal and complete stump removal. Once the site is cleared, we don't just fill the hole. We view it as an opportunity for a fresh start. Our design services create a cohesive plan that addresses underlying issues. This may include regrading the area, constructing a new garden bed with proper soil, or installing a feature like an artificial turf putting green or a new patio where the tree once was. We manage the entire project from demolition to final construction, ensuring the new landscape is healthy and sustainable.
