Uneven or bumpy lawn — Amstelveen, Noord-Holland
An uneven lawn with bumps, dips, and ridges makes mowing difficult, creates tripping hazards, and causes water to pool in low spots rather than draining evenly. Common causes include settling soil, burrowing animals, decomposing organic matter beneath the surface, poor grading during construction, and freeze-thaw cycles. Minor unevenness can be corrected with topdressing — spreading a thin layer of soil-compost mix and leveling it. Severe cases may need core aeration, regrading, or even sod replacement. A landscaper can assess whether the issue is cosmetic or indicates a deeper drainage or soil problem.
