Sunnyside Acres Landscape & Irrigation - Columbia's Experienced Landscaping Services

In the Columbia area, brown patch fungus is very prevalent, especially during our hot, humid summers. We treat it with a multi-step approach: first, we correct any underlying issues like over-watering from faulty irrigation, then we apply targeted fungicides. Most importantly, we focus on cultural practices like proper aeration and mowing height to prevent it from returning, giving you a long-term solution for a healthy lawn.

Poor grading causes water to pool near your home's foundation or in low spots in your yard. In our heavy rains, this can lead to basement flooding, soil erosion, and constant soggy areas that breed fungus and mosquitoes. Our fix involves expert re-grading to create a gentle slope that directs water away from your home and into proper drainage areas, protecting your property's structure and your lawn's health.

Absolutely. A correctly designed and maintained irrigation system is crucial here. We program and install systems that deliver the right amount of water at the optimal time (typically early morning), which allows grass to dry during the day. This prevents the prolonged moisture that fungus thrives on. Proper irrigation also ensures even coverage, eliminating dry spots and over-saturated areas that stem from poor grading or manual watering.
