Q: What maintenance does a graded landscape require?

• <div><p>Periodic checks for erosion and proper drainage function ensure lasting results.</p></div>

Q: Why is grading a yard important?

• <div><p>Yard grading is a key component of proper drainage because runoff naturally moves with respect to gravity. If you have low spots in your yard, rain and snowmelt will settle there and oversaturate the soil, promoting root rot and fungal growth. If the low spots are near your home&rsquo;s foundation, you could even end up with foundation leaks or structural damage due to poor yard grading.</p></div>

Q: Why would someone level a yard?

• <div><p>People level their yards for practical and cosmetic purposes. If you have a very steep slope in your backyard, you might have a hard time with lawn maintenance. Or, if you want to entertain in the summer but don&rsquo;t have a flat yard, building a patio would be quite difficult. </p></div>

Q: How do I prepare for hardscaping?

• <div><p>Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.</p></div>

Q: Can adding new sand fix paver drainage issues?

• <div><p>Not typically. A paver patio drainage problem generally requires a landscaping fix that can include a drainage pipe or dry well capable of handling the amount of runoff in your yard. </p></div>

"I hired them to trim shrubs, weed flower beds, put new mulch in flower beds, yard clean up, etc. They came out, looked at my yard, & then gave me a price to complete the work. I agreed on price, we set a date for them to come, they arrived & completed the work. They did a great job!! I was very satisfied. I will definitely hire them again as needed & I would recommend them to anyone."

We sell and install exterior building materials from ground to rooftop. We also do custom design work for home and yard, turn your backyard into a show stopping oasis

"Contracted HomePro to build a sunroom and install siding. Signed contract about Labor Day. After several " trips to measure:" work finaly started the week before Christmas. Never knew who would show up as there was 2 crews working. Salesman kept coming by to collect money even though contract called for payment at completion. Owner came out at completion and made several promises that were never fulfilled. Job was shoddy and less than professional. On completion found several contractors that could have done the job cheaper (our fault). If interested in HomePro investigate them completely."
