Sublett Landscaping: Qualified Landscaping Serving Cincinnati, OH 45213

We primarily use core aeration, a process that removes small plugs of soil to alleviate compaction, allowing essential air, water, and nutrients to reach grass roots. For severe cases, we may combine this with topdressing using compost or sand to improve soil structure long-term, helping your lawn thrive despite our area's dense clay soil.

The best solution depends on your yard's specific grading and layout. We often install subsurface solutions like French drains to channel water away from problem areas or create above-ground features like dry creek beds and swales that manage runoff naturally and add landscape interest. A proper assessment lets us recommend the most effective, permanent fix for your Cincinnati home.

Absolutely. Poor drainage drowns plant roots, leading to disease, rot, and nutrient deficiencies. By correcting drainage issues—whether through regrading, adding drains, or using water-tolerant plants in wet zones—we create an environment where your plants' roots can breathe and access the nutrients they need, leading to a lusher, more resilient landscape.
