Services
Weekly Lawn Mowing
Our weekly mowing service maintains optimal grass height using professional-grade equipment. We follow the one-third rule to prevent grass stress while providing edging, trimming, and cleanup. Regular mowing promotes dense growth that resists weeds and pests. Our crews adjust cutting height seasonally for cool-season grasses common in Kansas City.
Core Aeration
We use core aeration to relieve soil compaction and improve root development. This process creates channels for water, nutrients, and oxygen to reach grass roots. Aeration enhances fertilizer effectiveness and reduces thatch buildup. We recommend twice-yearly treatments for optimal lawn health.
Fertilization Program
Our 7-step fertilization program delivers seasonally appropriate nutrients. We apply pre-emergent herbicides in spring and winterizing treatments in fall. Soil-specific formulations address regional deficiencies while controlling broadleaf weeds throughout the growing season.
Pest Control
We provide perimeter pest control treatments that create protective barriers around properties. Our three-treatment annual program targets ants, spiders, and seasonal pests while maintaining pet and child safety. We also offer specialized flea, tick, and mosquito control solutions.
Overseeding
Our overseeding service fills bare patches and thickens turf using climate-appropriate grass varieties. We combine this with aeration for maximum seed-to-soil contact. This process improves lawn density and resilience against drought and heavy foot traffic.
