More we do in Gilmer
Lawn Maintenance
Gilmer lawns on sandy ground dry out fast, and a low cut makes it worse.
Fertilization
Gilmer's sandy ground does not hold onto fertilizer, so one heavy feeding mostly washes past the roots.
Sod Installation
When a Gilmer lawn has been scalped, burned out or overrun, sod is the clean restart.
Flower Bed Installation
In Gilmer's sand, a new flower bed needs organic matter in it or it will dry out between every rain.
Landscaping
Beds in sandy Gilmer soil drain well, which is good news for heat lovers like lantana, salvia and plumbago and bad news for anything thirsty.
Leaf Removal
Between the oaks, pecans and pines around Gilmer, fall cleanup is not a one-weekend job.
Hedge Trimming
Country homes around Gilmer often have long hedge lines along a drive or fence, and those take a different approach than a foundation shrub.
Tree & Shrub Care
On acreage around Gilmer, the trees and shrubs closest to the house matter most: dead lower limbs shading the lawn, crepe myrtles that got topped, and shrubs swallowing the porch.
