Lawn Care Services

We Provide:

Lawn Fertilization helps to promote healthy top growth to make your lawn look attractive and also develop the deep root system that is the foundation of any beautiful lawn.

Broadleaf Weed Control application helps to control most broadleaf weeds such as dandelions, creeping charlie, plantain and many more.

Crabgrass Preventer is an application that puts down a weed preventer which establishes a barrier at the soil surface that interrupts the germination process of the unwanted weeds. This application also contains a high Nitrogen fertilizer.

Soil Tests can be taken in order to determine the fertility of your lawn. This helps us determine what the pH of your lawn is and the amount of soil nutrients present. This is a great tool to let us know what applications other than weed control your lawn needs.

Lime Application is done when your soil is acidic. We can safely apply 50 pounds per 1,000 square feet per year. A soil test can help us determine the pH of your lawn.

Aeration allows air, water and nutrients to more readily reach the root zone by relieving compacted soil and opening up the thatch layer. It also helps to stimulate new growth, improves drainage and provides a better environment for over seeding and increases effectiveness of applied fertilizers and control products.

Over Seeding allows for worn out areas of lawn to be replaced with new stand of dense, healthy turf. When we over seed, we first aerate your lawn. This will promote good soil to seed contact. Second, we broadcast a starter fertilizer to promote germination. Third, we broadcast grass seed across the area. We usually recommend a bluegrass seed across the area. Lastly, we need you to water. It's recommended to water 2 times a day during the coolest times of the day.

Insecticide Treatments help control insects that can cause extensive damage to your lawn. We offer different kinds of insecticide to address your specific problem at different times of the year.

Lawn Care Tips

Tips:

RECYCLE GRASS CLIPPINGS: They are 85 percent water and return 20 percent of their nitrogen to the soil to feed the lawn's root system. They decompose rapidly and return nutrients to the soil.

MOWING HEIGHT: For most lawns in central Wisconsin - We recommend a 2 1/2 to 3 inch cutting height during the hottest months. Grass can be mowed shorter in the cooler months.

TIMING: Determining when to mow should be based on the growth rate of the grass, not on the calendar. To keep your lawn looking its best, remove only about 1/3 of the leaf blade each time you mow. Try changing direction each time you mow. This will keep the grass growing erect. It also reduces turf wear and the possibility of scalping.

SHARP BLADE: A sharp mower blade is probably the single most important requirement for mowing. A dull blade rips and shreds the grass making it susceptible to disease and insects.

HOT WEATHER CONDITIONS: During the hottest months, it is a good idea to water your lawn the day before, then try to mow during the coolest part of the day.

If there isn't measurable precipitation within 4-5 days after the lawn has been fertilized, please try to water the lawn. This will get the fertilizer into the root zone and help keep your lawn greener.

Remember, after a herbicide application has been done to your lawn, pets should be kept off for 24 hours and people for 4 to 5 hours.

PLEASE DO NOT MOW FOR 24 HOURS AFTER AN APPLICATION HAS BEEN DONE.

During any extended hot-dry spells, lawns or parts of lawn will go dormant, don't worry about this. When growing conditions become more favorable it will green up again.
