"Shorescapes took a formally wooded area in my yard and transformed it to a green lawn. They added topsoil, planted seed and covered it with a seed mat . The grass grew well and I now have a beautiful green lawn."

"Oscar and son and all the workers did an excellent job weeding and mulching several gardens, along with trimming many shrubs. Also, cleared debris from two ground tree stumps, followed by laying new soil refill and seeding, along with placing straw over the seed. Everyone was polite, efficient, and hardworking. We will definitely use them again."

"Kevin and Eli were quick to respond when I contacted them. They got me a proposal quickly and could do the work in a reasonable time. They and their workers were here all day in the 90 degree heat and worked until the job was complete. It looks amazing. So thankful to have a great lawn and landscape company that responds quickly and works efficiently!"

Customers say: Quick response

"I hired Mr Milligan and his employee to maintain my property in Seaford now that my husband and I are in our late 70s and need assistance. We are so glad we did. They are friendly, offered suggestions, will check to see if and when lawn will need attention again and are reasonably priced. We are now comfortable in being assured that our lawn will be maintained even during times when we are unable to be there. We highly recommend them."

"I think they treated the wrong lawn. The note they sent me via text message referenced trees and shrubs in my yard, I have none. They also did not leave a yard marker showing they had been there. Otherwise, this would have been a 5 star review."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Yes, rotting leaves can be good for your soil. The decaying leaves release nutrients into the soil that can boost the health of your plants, and the organic matter also helps improve airflow and water drainage.

A standard home lawn mower with sharp blades can handle a thin layer of leaves without issue. You may need to make a couple of passes within several days to mulch leaves down, but your mower shouldn’t struggle. If your mower comes with a mulching kit, like an attachment to blow leaves out the side, that’s a good sign it’s ready for fall leaves. Set your mower to the highest or near-highest height for this project so it focuses on the leaves rather than the grass below.

Yes, you can absolutely make your own mulch, and there are a few ways to go about it. First, you can lay down pine needles or mulched leaves if you’re mulching in the fall. In the spring and summer, you can use mulched grass clippings. Alternatively, you can lay down a few layers of newspaper in your garden and gently wet the paper to keep it in place.

The least strenuous methods to get rid of leaves are to use a leaf blower, leaf vacuum, or a lawn mower, since these machines will do most of the work. 

Mulching leaves with a lawn mower is a great way to reap the benefits of leaf nutrients composting into your lawn without the leaves covering too much of your grass.
