Yardsmith: Trusted Landscapers Serving Orono, ME 04473

Bare patches are often a symptom of deeper issues like poor drainage or uneven grading, which cause water to pool or run off too quickly. Our excavation service allows us to properly regrade your property, ensuring water is distributed evenly across your lawn. This creates the stable, well-drained foundation necessary for grass seed or sod to take root and thrive, preventing those unsightly patches from returning.

In the Orono area, proper drainage is crucial to prevent soil erosion and waterlogging, both of which lead to patchy grass. Trenching is used to install French drains or other drainage solutions that redirect excess water away from your lawn's root zone. By managing moisture levels effectively, we protect your soil structure and create the consistent conditions your grass needs for dense, even growth throughout the seasons.

Absolutely. Improper or overly aggressive snow removal can damage the grass crowns and compact the soil underneath, leading to thin, patchy areas come spring. As your local Orono experts, we use careful techniques and appropriate equipment to clear snow effectively while minimizing impact on your lawn. Protecting your grass during winter is a key step in ensuring a lush, healthy start when the thaw arrives.
