FAQs

My yard in Newtown has areas with standing water and bare spots. How can Young's Legacy Landscaping help?

These are common issues in our area often caused by poor drainage or soil compaction. We start with a site evaluation to diagnose the cause. For drainage, solutions can include regrading the land, installing French drains, or constructing dry creek beds. For bare spots, we address soil health and may recommend aeration, soil amendments, and proper reseeding or sodding. Our earthmoving and landscape construction services allow us to correct the underlying problems, not just mask the symptoms, creating a healthier, more usable lawn.

What is the advantage of having an in-house CT Arborist for my tree and shrub care?

Having a licensed CT Arborist like Scott Deniston on our team means your property's trees and shrubs are cared for with a deep understanding of plant health, local pests, and diseases. This expertise informs everything from proper planting and pruning techniques to diagnosing and managing issues like insect infestations or fungal diseases. It ensures that tree removal or transplanting is done safely and correctly, preserving the value and beauty of your landscape. It's a level of specialized care that goes beyond standard maintenance.

Can you handle both the design and construction of a complex project like a patio with retaining walls and irrigation?

Yes, absolutely. Our team is structured to manage projects from initial concept through to completion. Scott's design and plant sourcing expertise, combined with Tony's construction and crew management experience, create a seamless process. We handle all phases: designing the outdoor living space, constructing hardscapes like patios and retaining walls, installing a tailored irrigation system, and finally, planting the landscape. This integrated approach ensures the design is executed precisely, with efficient coordination and a single point of responsibility.
