Best Landscaping Services in Tupper Lake, NY 12986 - Thompson Caretaking and Construction

Absolutely. Poor drainage around an old or improperly built deck is a common cause of those unsightly dead lawn patches. When we construct or repair your deck, we pay close attention to the grading and foundation to ensure water is directed away from your lawn, protecting your grass and preventing soil erosion that can damage landscape edging.

Yes, we see this often in our area. Our lawn care approach goes beyond simple mowing. We can assess the cause of the edging damage, which is often related to soil compaction, water runoff, or improper mowing. We offer core aeration to improve soil health, adjust watering recommendations, and can even install more durable, low-profile edging materials as part of our construction services to create a long-term fix.

Great question! A deck replacement is the perfect time to solve underlying issues. We design the new deck's footprint and support structure to minimize soil compaction and improve air circulation to the lawn beneath. We also strategically plan the project to protect your existing grass during construction and can seamlessly integrate new, robust landscape edging around the completed deck to define the space and prevent future damage from mowers or weather.
