Altoona yards, Altoona challenges

Altoona sits right at the foot of the Allegheny Front, and plenty of the city is built on hillsides. Many lots are narrow, sloped or terraced, which makes mowing awkward and leaves soil prone to washing out. Retaining walls and careful grading are some of the most useful upgrades for these properties.

Mature street trees shade many established neighborhoods. That means more leaves to clean up every fall, shaded lawns that need taller mowing heights, and walks and siding that grow algae in the shade. A fall clean-up, regular mowing at the right height, and a spring pressure wash take care of all three.

Winters here bring repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Patios and walkways need a properly compacted base to avoid heaving, and lawns benefit from a clean start each spring.
