Question Answers
As a Woburn homeowner, how can you help prevent weeds from taking over my mulch beds?
Weed infestation in mulch beds is a common challenge in our area. Our approach starts with proper site preparation during landscape installation, including using quality landscape fabric and the right depth of mulch to suppress weeds. For existing beds, our landscape maintenance services include careful manual weeding and, when appropriate, targeted treatments as part of our shrub and insect management services. We also recommend and can install drip irrigation systems that water plants directly, reducing the moist surface conditions that weeds thrive in.
We need a new driveway and patio. Can you handle both the excavation and the hardscaping construction?
Absolutely. As a full-service landscape construction company, we manage the entire process in-house. Our team begins with the necessary excavation, land grading, and soil compaction to create a stable base. We then move seamlessly into the construction phase, using our expertise in driveway installation and patio construction to build a durable and attractive outdoor living space. This integrated approach, backed by over 30 years of experience, ensures efficient project coordination and a single point of responsibility for your project in Woburn.
Do you design and install custom irrigation systems for residential properties?
Yes, we provide complete irrigation services. Our process starts with a custom irrigation design tailored to your property's specific layout, sun exposure, and plant types to promote water efficiency. We then handle the trench digging, pipe installation, and head placement. As a family-operated business since 1986, we also offer ongoing irrigation repair and maintenance to keep your system functioning properly through the seasons, helping your Woburn landscape stay healthy while conserving water.
