Thicker lawns start with what you feed them.

A healthy, well-fed lawn crowds out weeds on its own. Pair the program with weekly mowing and the difference shows by midsummer.

Common questions

How many applications are in a season?

Six: a pre-emergent and lime in the spring, then a regular fertilizer, a fertilizer with grub control, a soil enhancement, and a fall fertilizer.

Is it safe for kids and pets?

Generally, yes. Most of the fertilizers we use are a blend of organic and synthetic ingredients. If you have kids or pets, reach out to us and we'll recommend what's best for your yard.

How soon will I see results?

It depends on where your lawn is starting from. A lawn in very poor condition can take 2 to 3 years to look really good. Book a consultation and we'll give you a better idea for your yard.
