For most people, the arrival of spring inspires change all around the house and that, of course, includes the landscaping. Whether you’ve planned a major update for a while or you need to tidy things up a bit, the best thing you can do is reach out to a lawn care specialist. 

Top 5 Lawn Care Services

1. Maintenance

Basic maintenance generally involves lawn mowing and trimming the edges. However, it can also include managing the watering schedule. Even if you have a high-quality irrigation system, it helps to have an expert assess the settings, especially if the previous season was out of the ordinary.

2. Fertilization

For the inexperienced, proper fertilization can be difficult to achieve. Many assume it’s best to add more than the directions indicate, but this results in burnt plants. Depending on the amount added, accidental over-fertilization can usually be fixed, but it’s better to avoid it in the first place by having a professional handle it.

3. Weed & Pest Control

Even with consistent maintenance, weeds and pests can appear. Removing them immediately is the best way to minimize the issue, but this can fall by the wayside as other priorities come up. Even if you aren't having a problem and are only worried about the likelihood, lawn care professionals can also implement preventative measures.

4. Seasonal Lawn Care

Every season brings a unique set of temperature and precipitation changes, which your lawn care should reflect. This includes tasks like core aeration, grass seeding, and dethatching. These are essential to revitalizing your lawn after a long, cold winter or in preparation for fall.

5. Lawn Installation

Sometimes, the best solution is to start from scratch. Are you looking for something hardier and low-maintenance or something to match your favorite garden flowers perfectly? By having a new lawn installed, you’ll choose the right type of grass for your location, landscaping, and lifestyle.
