Sully's Landscaping and Property Care - Bangor's Local Landscapers

Properly installed hardscapes are key for managing water. When we design and install patios, walkways, or retaining walls in Bangor, we focus on creating positive drainage away from your home's foundation. We use specific grading techniques and permeable base materials that allow water to drain through, rather than pooling on the surface. This redirects runoff and helps alleviate the soil saturation common in our area.

Absolutely. Soil compaction is a frequent issue here that starves plant roots of air and water. Our shrub care services go beyond pruning. We assess soil health and can implement solutions like vertical mulching (aeration) around root zones and amending the soil during planting or transplanting. For existing plants, our disease and insect management programs are tailored to stressed shrubs, helping them recover and thrive in compacted conditions.

It's a smart concern. A poorly installed driveway can worsen yard drainage problems. At Sully's, our driveway construction includes critical drainage planning. We evaluate the site's slope, often incorporating crowning (a center high point) and edge drains to channel water off the surface and into designated drainage areas. Using the right base materials is also essential to prevent water from undermining the driveway, ensuring a durable installation that protects your property from water damage.
