Lawn Care

Not all lawns are the same, as many of our competitors would like you to believe. Many of them spray the same pre-mixed liquid, containing both fertilizer and weed control, on all the lawns they treat. Our lawn care professionals are trained to tailor our program to the unique needs of your lawn, no one formula for all lawns! Our program utilizes dry, granular fertilizers, pre-emergent and lime. Our weed control is mixed according to only the type of weeds we need to control in your lawn. In fact, we change our product formulations throughout the year, as conditions dictate, to give your lawn what it needs!

  • We use slow release, granular fertilizers to thicken your lawn and prevent new weeds. These granular fertilizers fall to the soil surface and remain there to be released to the roots over time - as your lawn needs them. They do not wash or mow away!
  • Our fertilizers provide a long - lasting greenness and a more steady growth pattern - making mowing easier to schedule. No surge growth from liquid fertilizers, requiring extra mowings and clippings!
  • At all applications, we use grassy and broadleaf weed controls, as needed, to rid your lawn of weeds. Many competitors do not treat grassy weeds, we do it at no additional cost!
  • At all applications, we inspect for turf-damaging insects and disease activity. We treat for turf-damaging insects free of charge!
  • Our program includes lime. Lime neutralizes the acidic, clay soil found in our area and prepares it to better accept nutrients. Some competitors charge extra for this!
