SERVING THE DOWNRIVER AREA

Landscaping in Brownstown, MI

Homeowners in Brownstown deal with a unique "standing water crisis" caused by the heavy, grey clay soils prevalent in subdivisions like Huntington Meadows and Coachwood. Without proper attention, these low-lying areas near the Huron River and Lake Erie Metropark are prone to turf fungus and drainage issues that can stress even the healthiest lawns. As our community transitions from a rural Downriver feel to a bustling suburb, maintaining a clean and compliant property is essential to avoid citations from the Brownstown Building Department.

Whether you are in the rapidly growing northern portion or along the high-traffic Telegraph Road corridor, your property needs a strategy that accounts for Brownstown’s specific environmental and municipal standards.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Common Questions from Brownstown Residents

How do I prevent standing water and pooling on my Brownstown property?

Brownstown’s grey clay soil is notorious for holding water. While we don't install underground trenching, our Landscape Maintenance and Mulching services help improve soil health, and our professional grading during Hardscaping projects ensures surface water is directed away from your home’s foundation to minimize pooling after heavy Michigan rains.


What types of trees and shrubs are recommended for Brownstown's climate?

The township specifically recommends native Michigan stock to support the local ecosystem. We incorporate trees like Spruce, Fir, and Arborvitae into our Landscape Designs, which provide excellent privacy screening and are durable enough to survive the unique moisture and soil conditions found in the northern residential sectors.


How can I avoid getting a "Tall Grass and Weeds" citation from the township?

The Brownstown Building Department is very proactive with ordinance enforcement. Our Scheduled Landscape Maintenance ensures your lawn is mowed to the proper height and your garden beds remain weed-free, keeping you compliant with local blemish-related codes and helping you avoid municipal fines.


Can you help me design an outdoor living space for a large backyard?

Yes. Many Brownstown homes feature larger-than-average yards perfect for multi-tier patios and outdoor kitchens. We specialize in Hardscaping that utilizes earthy tones and natural textures, creating a modern "Outdoor Living" space that serves as a beautiful extension of your home.
