Spring and Fall Cleanup

Autumn leaves are beautiful when on trees. Once they hit the ground, they pose a risk to the thick, lush lawn that you worked so hard all summer to achieve. Leaves can choke out grass and create a pathway for numerous fungi and diseases. When on site, our crews properly prune and cut back any plants to allow the best opportunity for new growth during spring and summer. Leaves will be blown out of beds, out from under decks, and out of shrubs, then will be bagged and hauled off site. An optional detaching service is offered during spring cleanups for an additional charge.

Dethatching
Removal of dead grass (thatch) from lawn. It is important to remove the dead grass because it helps prevent problems like compaction, thatch build-up, and unhealthy grass. By removing the thatch, it allows air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots. It creates a healthy lawn. After Dethatching service is complete, Overseeding may be necessary for any bare spots.
Lawn Renovation

Is your lawn uneven or a poor-quality lawn? Let us take care of that. Lawn care goes beyond just mowing and cutting. We would be bringing in black topsoil and overseeding the areas.

Hydroseeding

Hydroseeding Is a “slurry” mixture made up of grass seed, mulch, water, fertilizer, biostimulants, and green-tinted dye. This way grass can grow faster than traditionally seeded lawns.
