What do I need to know to maintain this work from a landscape contractor?

Maintenance is key to protecting your investment. In Salt Lake and Davis Counties, that means adjusting irrigation for seasonal changes, deep watering trees during hot summers, and mulching beds annually to insulate roots. Fertilizing lawns two to four times a year and aerating clay soils helps grass thrive. Hardscapes need occasional sweeping and joint sand refills. Many contractors provide a maintenance guide or offer ongoing service packages. If not, ask for care instructions before the project ends. Following these steps not only keeps your yard looking good but may also be required to keep warranties valid.
