Weeds, uneven grass, and overgrown vegetation can diminish your landscape and make it less appealing. A healthy lawn is every homeowner’s dream, but keeping it attractive and clean is an expensive and time-consuming process.
Landscaping solutions like maintenance, irrigation, weed removal, hardscaping, and lawn management can bring your home’s outdoor to life. Here are five landscaping services that every homeowner and commercial building manager should know about:
Landscape lighting
It is the lawn’s focal point, and it can highlight trees and textures. Apart from beautification, landscape lighting also offers a range of safety and security benefits. Any abrupt changes in elevation, steps, bushes, or irregularities become more visible with landscape lighting. You can also hold outdoor parties during which the landscape lights will provide safe passage to guests. It also deters intruders.
Lawn care and maintenance
An overgrown lawn acts as a welcome mat for bugs, snakes, flies, and other crawlers. If you don’t want to accidentally step on bugs or venomous snakes because they were hiding in overgrown grass, regular lawn care is essential.
At A1 Kevin’s Landscaping, we provide grass cutting, spring, fall clean-ups, aerating, de-thatching, sodding, top dressing, reseeding, and leaf removal services. We also offer a fertilizer program that includes crabgrass control, organic fertilizer, broadleaf, and fall fertilizer.
Mulching
Mulch is the ultimate time-saving tool for both flower beds and vegetable gardens. Mulch cuts down the time it takes to water, weed, and fight pests. There are many types of mulch. While most of them ward off pests and weeds, some cater to the needs of specific trees, plants, or crops.
Along with mulching, our landscaping services include trees and plant shrubbery plantation, weed control, pruning and trimming, trenching beds, gutter cleaning, weeding beds, dry river beds, and stone for beds.
Hardscaping
Hardscapes are the inanimate elements in your lawn like decorative items or functional structures like driveways, patio, fences, stone walls, or benches. They can organize your home’s outdoor spaces and lift its aesthetic appeal.
Unlike natural elements like trees and shrubs, they require low to no maintenance and are water-efficient. Deck and patio space act as your home’s extension and will significantly improve outdoor family gatherings. Another benefit of hardscape elements is that they reduce erosion by acting as barriers, keeping your topsoil intact.
Irrigation
Water mismanagement can lead to dead plants, potholes, displaced soil and fertilizer, and baseboard water damage. Excess water is also a breeding ground for flies and insects. A quality irrigation system ensures healthy soil and keeps plants hydrated even in dry climates or areas with less than average rainfall. It will also promote the efficient use of water in the yard.
