Fundamentals: Soil Amendment

What It Takes

 

 

 

The next step is soil preparation. This will vary from customer to customer depending on the existing conditions and what the project calls for. Goodway Landscape uses a 4-4-2 soil amendment for most yards (4% Nitrogen, 4% Phosphate, 2% Soluble Potash). Other landscapes require Humus (80% organic matter, 20% Humic Acids). We charge the same either way. These nutrients are vital to soil for a healthy vibrant landscape. Most projects call for 2 cubic yards for every 300 square feet .

Grading, Excavation and Drainage: Some projects require additional grading and excavation beyond what happens during soil preparation. Likewise, additional drainage is also sometimes needed. This will be determined depending on what is existing.
