Questions and Answers
What causes dead patches in my Braintree lawn, and how can Tom's Landscaping help?
Dead patches in Braintree lawns are often caused by soil compaction, grub damage, or fungal diseases common to our area. Tom's Landscaping starts with a thorough inspection to identify the exact cause. We then provide solutions like core aeration to relieve compaction, targeted grub control, or fungicide applications, followed by overseeding with grass varieties suited to our local climate to restore a thick, green lawn.
How do you prevent weeds from taking over my mulch beds?
We prevent weed invasion by starting with a proper bed preparation, including installing a quality landscape fabric barrier where appropriate. We then apply a fresh, deep layer of mulch—which we refresh as needed—to block sunlight and suppress weed seeds. For existing beds, our team carefully removes all weeds and roots before applying new mulch, providing a clean, long-lasting finish that keeps your Braintree garden looking its best.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance to keep these problems from coming back?
Yes, we offer tailored seasonal maintenance programs designed for Braintree homes. These can include regular lawn fertilization and weed control, mulch bed refreshes, and pre-emergent treatments to stop weeds before they start. A consistent maintenance schedule is the most effective way to prevent the recurrence of dead spots and weeds, protecting your investment and keeping your landscape healthy year-round.
