Why is it important to have a healthy lawn? There are quite a few reasons. One of the most important reasons is that they are fun to run on without shoes and protect you when you fall. Kidding aside, did you know a 50 x 50 feet of lawn area produce enough oxygen for a family of four while absorbing carbon dioxide. Healthy lawns trap dust and pollutants that are released into our atmosphere; absorb rainfall and help with erosion control; and provide natural air conditioning and are said to increase your property value up to 20%. These are just a few reasons.
Please read some of the services we offer below and maybe we can help you achieve a healthier lawn.

Turf fertilization contributes greatly to lawn color, density, uniformity and growth. The major goal of these programs is to produce attractive healthy turf. We can customize a program to fit your needs.
Weed, Insect, and Disease Control
We have a basic five step program that will address most of your lawn maintenance needs. Sometimes a lawn may need some special applications due to harder to control weeds, insects or disease. We are licensed and able to handle any of these issues.
Edging and Mulching
Cobblestone comes in a variety of colors and when installed with cement is a more permanent type of edge restraint. If not cobblestone, we still hand dig our edges and are able to install whatever color mulch or stone you may desire for your planting beds.
Pruning
There are a host of reasons to prune. Maybe there has been winter damage, maybe you need to prune back some new growth, maybe there are limbs near wires, etc…Pruning can be done with little damage to the plant if done correctly.
Dethatching
If your lawn is green on top but brown underneath or if it looks dead and scalped when you mow, it may be time to dethatch. A layer of thatch prevents moisture, oxygen and nutrients from reaching the soil. Thatch layers can also harbor disease and insects.
Aeration
As lawns age or sustain heavy use from various activities soil compaction can result. Aeration will increase the activity of microorganisms that decompose thatch, increase nutrient movement into the soil, and improve water infiltration, fertilizer uptake and rooting.
Snow Plowing and Sanding (now accepting new accounts)
We have to stay busy these months too. We operate around the clock on call to take care of any commercial snowplowing or sanding needs.
