If you?ve ever wanted your landscaping to make your neighbors envious, we can help! We create unique landscape designs in the Lowcountry; specializing in custom landscape solutions, landscape lighting, drip irrigation, as well as routine property maintenance.

"Frank is a highly skilled expert in his field. He took our yard from grass to a complete resort-like feel with his hardscaping and landscaping design. From our first meeting with him, we knew he was our contractor. He listened to what we wanted and not only provided us with that design, but also gave his input as to what he would do if it were his yard. Ultimately, we combined the designs and couldnâ t be happier with our transformation. It went from a dream to a beautiful realty in a matter of weeks. Once the work started, Frank and his awesome team, Billy and Gary, were here every day until the project was done and did not take any jobs in between. Meticulous, dependable and clean workmanship, these gentlemen were the nicest men we have had the pleasure to work with. Even all the neighbors commented on their courtesy and how hardworking they were. We highly recommend them!! If we could give them more than 5 stars, we would certainly do that! We posted pictures here, but don't think the pictures do it enough justice."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Raking only moves soil, leaves, and debris around on the surface. Aerating your lawn addresses compacted soil. Core aeration loosens up the soil, which makes it healthier and creates more verdant grass from the richer nutrients and stronger root systems that develop. Raking only provides short-term benefits, while aeration creates higher-quality soil and grass growth in the long term. Rake or dethatch before aerating for a bigger benefit to your lawn.

Services typically include mowing, edging, trimming, and debris cleanup. Additional options may consist of fertilization and weed control.

One of the most effective ways to improve lawn absorption is to learn how to aerate your lawn. This is a process where you poke tiny holes all throughout it to break up tough soil and sediment, creating pathways for sunlight, water, air, and nutrients to seep into the plant’s roots. In turn, it promotes stronger root systems, making your lawn or plants less susceptible to pests and disease. Ideally, you’ll want to aerate your lawn at least once per year during the growing season—think late summer to early fall. 

Speeding up grass seed germination is possible, but it requires quite a bit of extra work and commitment. Keeping the soil moist is key, but here are a few other tried-and-true methods for growing your new grass as quickly as possible:

  • Mist grass up to eight times per day to keep the soil moist.

  • Purchase a moisture-retaining seed coating for your grass seeds.

  • Amend soil that is compacted or in the wrong pH range.

  • Choose the right grass seed for your area’s climate and soil conditions.

  • Avoid planting on windy days or during periods of extreme rain or drought.

No, grass pavers don’t require a lot of maintenance. However, you’ll need to keep the grass in between the pavers trimmed down just like you would with your lawn.
