Fixing Builder Landscaping on Wexford Properties

The homes up here are new. The dirt underneath them was scraped bare and never given back.

Almost every Wexford call starts the same way: the house is ten years old, the lawn looked perfect the first spring, and it has thinned a little every year since. That is not bad luck. Sod laid over compacted subsoil runs out of root room fast, and no amount of fertilizer gets past ground that hard.

So we start underneath. Core aeration to open the clay, an overseeding in early fall while soil is still warm, and amended soil in any bed we plant into. Once the ground works again, the rest of it — real bed lines, layered shrubs, a walkway that goes where people walk — actually holds up.

How We Take On a Wexford Property

Four steps that start with what is under the grass, not on top of it.

  1. Check the Soil Depth

    A probe tells us how much topsoil the builder actually left behind.

  2. Plan the Order of Work

    Aeration and seeding first, then beds, so plants go into living soil.

  3. Price It in Phases

    Split across two seasons if you would rather not do it all at once.

  4. Install and Maintain

    We plant it, then keep it on the weekly route so it stays that way.

Questions From Wexford and Pine Township

Builder sod is usually laid over scraped subsoil with barely two inches of topsoil under it. Roots hit compacted clay and stall. Core aeration plus a fall overseeding is the standard fix and it takes two seasons to fully turn around.
