What Newark yards actually need
Newark's mix is unlike anywhere else in the county: 1960s–80s ranches and split-levels with mature lawns, newer developments toward 19702, and rental properties near the University of Delaware that need dependable, low-fuss maintenance. We tailor the approach to the property — a renovation-grade overseed for a tired owner-occupied fescue lawn, or a simple, reliable mow-and-cleanup schedule for a rental.
The clay soil through the Christina River basin drains slowly, and plenty of Newark backyards hold water along rear fence lines. French drains, swales, and downspout burials are steady work for us here, as are privacy fences on the denser postwar streets.
Newark homeowners ask us…
Do you mow lawns near the University of Delaware?
Yes — we maintain owner-occupied homes and rental properties throughout Newark, including student-rental areas where owners want a set-and-forget weekly schedule.
My Newark backyard floods along the fence — can you fix it?
Very likely. Slow-draining clay plus flat rear yards is the most common drainage call we get in Newark. A French drain or regraded swale with a proper outlet usually solves it; assessments are free.
Which Newark zip codes do you cover?
All of them — 19702, 19711, and 19713, plus nearby Bear and Glasgow.
