The Great American Landscaping - Glen Ellyn's Professional Landscaping

Moss often indicates compacted soil, poor drainage, or excessive shade—common issues in older Glen Ellyn neighborhoods. We don't just remove the moss; we address the root cause. Our service includes core aeration to relieve compaction, soil amendments to improve drainage, and recommendations for shade-tolerant grass varieties or alternative ground covers to prevent its return.

A leak can waste hundreds of gallons and drown areas of your lawn. First, check your water bill for unusual spikes. Then, contact us for a professional inspection. Our technicians use specialized equipment to locate leaks—even underground—and perform efficient repairs on all major sprinkler brands. We also perform seasonal start-ups and winterizations to prevent future issues common in our freeze-thaw cycles.

These issues are often connected. Poor drainage from compacted soil can be worsened by a leaky sprinkler head creating a perpetually wet area. We provide a combined assessment and action plan. This typically involves repairing the irrigation leak, aerating the affected lawn area, improving the soil grade for better runoff, and reseeding with appropriate grass. This holistic fix saves you money and creates a healthier, more uniform lawn.
