Thompson's Handyman and LawnCare Service: Top-Rated Landscapers Serving Macon, GA 31217

Absolutely. A sudden spike in your water bill is a classic sign of a sprinkler system leak, a common issue in our area due to shifting soil and aging pipes. We perform a thorough inspection to locate all leaks—whether at the heads, valves, or main lines—and provide prompt, durable repairs. Fixing leaks not only saves you money but also ensures your lawn isn't being overwatered in some spots and underwatered in others, promoting even health.

Yes, standing water often points to poor lawn grading, a frequent problem in Macon that can drown grass roots and cause mosquito issues. As part of our lawn care services, we assess the slope and drainage of your property. We can regrade problem areas by carefully adding or removing soil to create a gentle slope away from your home's foundation, directing water to appropriate drainage points. This corrects the pooling and is a foundational step for a healthier lawn.

Definitely. Macon's clay soil compacts easily, worsening drainage and grading issues. Our expert lawn care approach includes core aeration to relieve soil compaction, allowing water, air, and nutrients to reach the roots. Combined with our grading corrections, this creates an environment where grass can thrive. We also recommend and can implement soil amendments to improve texture and health over time, building a lawn that's more resistant to our local climate challenges.
