Common Questions
How can your landscape maintenance help fix poor lawn grading in my Fort Collins yard?
Poor grading directs water toward your home's foundation, a common issue here. Our maintenance includes assessing drainage patterns, aerating compacted soil, and strategically adjusting soil levels. We regrade problem areas to create a gentle slope away from structures, ensuring proper runoff and protecting your property from water damage, all while keeping your lawn healthy.
What tree care services do you offer to prevent issues with my property's grading or rock features?
Tree roots can disrupt grading and shift rock gardens. Our services include root barrier installation, strategic pruning to manage root growth, and professional tree removal when necessary. By managing tree health and placement, we help stabilize the soil and protect your hardscaping investments from underground disturbances common in our local soil conditions.
Can you help stop my Fort Collins rock garden from shifting and settling unevenly?
Absolutely. Shifting rocks are often due to improper base installation or soil erosion. We correct this by excavating the area, installing a stable, compacted base of road base or crusher fines (common locally), and setting the rocks with secure edging. This creates a permanent, low-maintenance feature that withstands our freeze-thaw cycles and keeps your garden looking intentional.
