Bed Edging and Mulch Installation

Enhance the look of your landscape with our bed edging and mulch installation services. Weeding and edging all planting beds and tree rings is essential to your landscape’s maintenance, with defined, smooth bed edges creating a crisp, neat appearance. Fresh mulch improves the look of your landscape beds while helping to retain moisture, control weeds, prevent erosion, and protect plants from extreme temperatures. Mulch is most effective with a depth of at least two inches, evenly spread. Mulch with full sun exposure and frequent irrigation can deteriorate more quickly than in dryer, shady areas. All mulch should be replenished yearly, with more frequent applications as needed. Landscape installation services such as bed edging and mulch cultivation create a fresh, clean look for your outdoor space, ensuring your property looks its best throughout the year.

Seasonal Pruning

Pruning services enhance the beauty of your landscape while keeping trees and shrubs healthy. Most landscape plants require regular pruning, and different plants require different techniques. We offer a wide range of pruning and trimming styles, from light shearing to rejuvenation pruning. Effective seasonal pruning is based on flowering times, growth rates, space management, and plant health. Trees are an often overlooked but key element in your landscape design and need regular pruning to maintain their health and branching structure. Trimming overgrown trees can help to thin out tree canopies, allowing sunlight to reach your lawn, resulting in healthier grass growth, and reducing potential damage from ice, snow, and windstorms. Let our trained and experienced landscape contractors provide this essential service for you.

Spring and Fall Cleanup

For spring and fall cleanup and property maintenance, call our landscaping specialists. In addition to leaf-bowing all planting beds in the fall, our team will remove twigs and debris from your yard, patio, or walkway. Raking and removing dead foliage from perennial beds and freeing plant beds from foreign materials ensures that they’ll be ready for the growing season. After the winter months, weeds, leaves, and debris that have accumulated throughout the season must be removed. We can replace sod and stone in areas damaged by winter snow removal as well as redefine bed edge lines. A crisp, finished look at the start of the season ensures that you’ll be able to enjoy your landscape all year.

Weekly Bed Service

A beautiful, well-kept landscape is an integral part of your investment in your home and protecting it with regular lawn care and maintenance is a must. When providing weekly plant bed and landscaping service, our trained specialists pay careful attention to your landscape beds, removing weeds, maintaining edges, and monitoring the health of plants. Our trained landscape technicians can offer a variety of curated planting options in any new or existing bed to add more color, fragrance, and texture to your outdoor spaces. Our experienced professionals understand that proper selection and placement of plants is essential to truly enhance your outdoor experience. Let our full-service landscaping team do the work of maintaining your property so you can relax and enjoy your healthy, manicured lawn or garden.

Weekly Lawn Service

Regular mowing and routine turf healthcare applications will improve the vitality and aesthetic of your lawn. Grass should remain at a uniform height not only for aesthetics but also the health of your lawn. Irregular grass growth can detract from the color and lushness of your lawn, but when grass is cut regularly, the strongest blades recover more quickly and grow more efficiently. Weekly mowing allows stronger grass blades to thicken and flourish, and uniform grass length ensures that water, minerals, and sunlight are evenly distributed across your lawn. At LaurelRock, we know that your lawn offers a first impression of your home to guests and passersby. With weekly lawn services from our landscaping specialists, we guarantee that impression will be flawless!

Storm Damage Inspection

A storm-damaged landscape can produce a number of hazards, including trees that appear to be stable but have been structurally compromised by inclement weather. Our trained landscape experts can identify potential dangers such as unstable trees or limbs hanging in tree canopies. Only experienced operators of the necessary equipment should perform these services. After inspecting your property, we may recommend pruning small trees, shrubs, and perennials affected by storm damage. Heavy rain can quickly erode areas of your landscape, so we’ll inspect your property for drainage issues and offer solutions for any problem areas discovered.

Irrigation

An important step in maintaining your landscape is having the correct amount of water applied to allow lawns, shrubs, and trees to properly grow and flourish throughout the season. Our trained technicians open your system in spring checking lines and valves and adjusting every head to ensure proper coverage and operation. Regular monitoring of the system and programming adjustments keep your landscape correctly irrigated – saving water and money along the way. In late fall, our technicians winterize your system blowing out lines, valves, and heads to prevent damage from freezing over the winter months.
