Landscape Maintenance
We offer professional landscape maintenance to both residential and commercial customers. Regular groundskeeping will keep your property looking its best, help protect your investment, and address hazards that could result in accidents or injury.
A well maintained landscape also greatly adds to the curb appeal of your home or business and, in most cases, will increase its market value.
While overgrown and neglected shrubs and trees can often be addressed by aggressive pruning, it can take years for some of them to fully recover and some shrubs and trees will not survive drastic pruning.
On the other hand, many garden shrubs and perennials require regular annual pruning to maintain their vigor and shape. Vines in particular need regular and often aggressive pruning to keep them in bounds. Many commonly grown perennials need dividing every couple of years to keep them thriving (and flowering).
Garden beds that are allowed to become very overgrown with weeds are not easily restored. Often times, to remediate very overgrown gardens, the plants need to be carefully removed, the beds thoroughly weeded and rototilled, and then replanted. This can be a time-consuming and costly process. The old adage "a stitch in time saves nine" surly applies to gardening !
Mulching garden beds is a popular way to suppress weeds, reduce watering needs, and help to keep root zones cooler in the heat of summer. While bark mulch is the most commonly used mulch, decorative rock installed over landscaping fabric can also be successfully used instead of bark mulch to control weeds and conserve moisture. While the decorative rock approach is well suited to areas around trees and shrubs - as they do not need regular digging and dividing - it can still be employed around perennials.
It is very important to install a top quality landscaping fabric (also known as a weed barrier) under decorative stone products used in lieu of an organic mulch. If fabric is omitted, the stones will work into the soil which will only create much more work down the road as you will have weeds and rocks to contend with. Done properly, stone mulches are very effective and attractive, and offer a longer term solution to annual mulching with bark.
While installing landscaping fabric under bark mulch will greatly improve weed suppression, it is not necessary. Bark mulch will degrade over time and will add organic matter to your soil. To keep your beds looking their best, bark mulches usually need to be supplemented each spring.
Whatever your project, buy the best quality landscaping fabric you can afford.......in the end it will save your time and money. Cheap landscaping fabrics deteriorate quite quickly while a top quality one will last many years.
Edging lawns with an edging spade adds that finishing touch to your garden beds by creating a clean, crisp edge. It is a simple and very effective way to give a professional touch to your lawns and garden beds.
We would be pleased to meet with you to discuss you needs and provide you with a free-of-charge quote. From regular weekly maintenance to a one-time major clean up, we help homeowners and businesses address their landscape maintenance needs.
Booking your work early will ensure you get on the schedule.
