Upperhand Landscaping: Experienced Landscapers Serving Cleveland, OH 44108

We start with a soil and turf analysis to identify the specific fungus. Our treatment plan combines targeted fungicide applications with cultural practices like proper aeration and overseeding with resistant grass varieties suited for our climate. We also address underlying issues, such as poor drainage or excessive shade from trees, which are common contributors to fungus in Northeast Ohio lawns.

Proper tree care is crucial for drainage. We can selectively prune or remove trees whose roots are disrupting your yard's grading or blocking drainage paths. Furthermore, we manage tree canopies to allow more sunlight to reach your lawn, which helps dry the soil and reduces the damp conditions that lead to both drainage issues and lawn disease.

We provide comprehensive drainage solutions tailored to Cleveland's clay-heavy soils. This can include regrading to direct water away from your home, installing French drains or dry wells, and incorporating absorbent soil amendments. As part of our ongoing lawn care, we ensure your grass has deep, healthy roots through core aeration, which also significantly improves the soil's ability to absorb water.
