The questions people ask on walkthroughs, answered before you call. Written from the work, not from a content calendar.

Topics

Notes from Lake Norman properties.

Standing water is a symptom with a short list of causes. French drains, dry creeks and grading, and how to tell which one your yard needs.

Weekly and bi-weekly both work, but not for the same lawn or the same season. The third of the blade rule, and when each schedule fits.

Leaning timbers and bulging block have the same three causes. What is behind a failing wall, and what rebuilding one properly involves.

Fescue lawns around Lake Norman get one great window a year. What aeration actually does, and why the calendar matters more than the machine.

Both can look sharp on day one. On Lake Norman clay they age differently, and repairs are where the two really part ways.

The base decides whether a patio stays flat for twenty years or waves in five. What we put under every patio around Lake Norman, and why.

Rather just ask us directly?

Every one of these started as a walkthrough question. Bring yours; a real person answers the phone.
