A Thicker, Greener Lawn Without The Guesswork

Early spring is ideal because the crabgrass pre-emergent has to go down before soil temperatures reach about 55°F, and once that window closes it is gone for the year. That said, we start lawns in every month of the growing season — we simply begin at whatever point in the schedule makes sense and pick up the missed steps the following spring.

Yes, when the directions are followed. We apply at labeled rates, post the property after each visit, and tell you exactly how long to keep pets and kids off — usually until the application has dried or been watered in. If you would rather avoid conventional products entirely, ask us about our organic fertilizer program.

We do. Organic fertilizers are derived from natural sources and release nutrients slowly, feeding the soil biology as well as the grass and reducing the risk of runoff or over-fertilization. They take longer to show visible results than synthetic products, so we set expectations up front before starting an organic program.

Because soil composition is constantly changing, and a lawn that looks nutrient-starved is often just too acidic to use the nutrients it already has. Testing tells us your nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and pH levels so we can recommend the right amendments instead of guessing — which usually saves money by preventing applications you did not need.

A standard program runs five to six visits across the season, spaced roughly six to eight weeks apart from early spring through late fall. Add-on services like core aeration, lime, and flea, tick and mosquito control are scheduled separately at the right time of year for each.

We cover Lackawanna, Luzerne, and Wyoming counties — Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Clarks Summit, Dickson City, Moosic, Carbondale, and the surrounding towns. If you are not sure whether you fall inside the service area, call (570) 451-3683 and we will tell you straight away.
