Built for Southern Johnson County Properties
Properties in Whiteland and New Whiteland sit on the same clay-heavy Johnson County soil that causes compaction problems throughout the region. Lawns that looked fine at install start thinning in years two and three as root systems hit compacted subsoil. Annual aeration and a properly sequenced fertilization program prevent that pattern from taking hold.
Larger parcels on the Franklin side of 46131 often deal with drainage challenges and grade issues that smaller suburban lots do not. We handle finish grading, retaining walls, and drainage correction alongside routine lawn care.
