Underhill Tree Service | Expert Landscapers in Normal, IL

Strategic gardening is key to managing water in Normal. We use deep-rooted native plants and grasses that absorb excess moisture and prevent soil erosion. By creating rain gardens or bioswales in low spots, we can naturally redirect water away from your home's foundation and problematic areas, turning a drainage issue into a beautiful, functional landscape feature.

Our landscape maintenance for grading issues goes beyond mowing. It involves core aeration to improve soil absorption, top-dressing with quality soil to gradually re-grade low areas, and ensuring your irrigation system doesn't contribute to the problem. We monitor water flow patterns and adjust our care regimen seasonally to promote proper drainage and a level, healthy lawn over time.

Absolutely. Trees play a crucial role in local water management. Healthy trees with robust root systems absorb significant groundwater, reducing saturation. We provide vital care like root zone aeration and proper pruning to maintain tree health. Conversely, we can safely remove diseased or poorly placed trees whose roots may be blocking drainage paths or contributing to soil compaction.
