Lawn Care Services We Offer 

We understand that your lawn is unique and comes with its challenges. Because of this, we will create a treatment plan that best suits you. Whether you want to grow your lawn from scratch, kill a stubborn weed, regrow areas that have died, or just maintain your already beautiful lawn, we have the solution for you!

Our specially trained turf pros will carefully treat your lawn according to your customized lawn care plan. Treatments consist of fertilizer and weed control that your lawn needs, along with any other additional services included in your plan.

If your lawn needs to recover from precious weed infestations or damage, that recovery will take time. If your lawn is already in great shape, our follow-up treatment will keep your lawn green and healthy while preventing grubs, weeds, and drought from causing any unwanted damage.

Our Premium Lawn Program 

We apply treatments every four to six weeks spanning from March to October, applying fertilizer and weed control on each treatment. Our proven program tailors every service to your lawn and the season by adjusting the type and amount of fertilizer and weed control we use.

We use the best products on the market for the fasted results for weed control. We offer two types of weed control, pre-emergent, which stops weeds before they emerge, and post-emergent, which kills weeds after they have grown. 

We pair fertilizing with weed control to help your lawn grow and prevent weeds from growing. We use a high-quality fertilizer mixed with our unique blend of micronutrients to provide the right amount of the three primary nutrients nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, and other necessary nutrients.

Other Lawn Services

We offer more services than fertilizing and weed control! Below, you can read about what we can do for your lawn:

Liquid Aeration- aerating your lawn every year promotes healthy growth. We use an organic soil conditioner, which replaces mechanical Aeration.

Back to Green- if you want to keep your lawn green through the dry summer, we can help with our proactive Back to Green treatment. This treatment will help your lawn retain more moisture, which will require less irrigation to keep it green. 

Flowerbed Treatment- your yard probably contains more than your lawn. Whether it is concrete, dirt, gravel, or flowerbeds, we offer to spot treat all areas outside your lawn for weeds. We can also fertilize these areas upon request!

Grub Control- found in nearly every Utah lawn, grubs can kill patches of lawn if their colony becomes big enough. Grub control is included, free of charge, with our Premium Lawn Program.

Fertilizer - Just like you do, your lawn needs nutrients to survive and thrive. On every service, we will apply the perfect amount of fertilizer to keep your lawn healthy. We will apply the fertilizer in liquid or granular form, depending on the weather and other circumstances

Our Ogden Drought Defense Program 

Drought defense is our way of bundling two very special products together to provide our customers with a simple way to improve their lawn's drought tolerance. It is designed to be added to our Premium Lawn Care Program. Adding Drought Defense to a lawn care program gives a proactive edge in protecting lawns against drought and heat stress.

We have seen what impact a drought can have on our lawns, from water restrictions, broken sprinklers, heat, and other hazards; drought can send a lawn into dormancy or death during any season. With our Drought Defense Program, you can be proactive, protecting your lawn against drought and heat stress.

What Exactly Is Drought/Heat Stress?

Signs of drought stress and heat stress show up when the environment gets too dry or too hot. When these stresses persist, the lawn begins to enter dormancy.

The lawn will become dormant as the roots pull all nutrients and moisture from the grass blades. It's a natural safety mechanism the grass uses to survive cold winters, and in this case, hot summers. Once conditions return to normal, the roots will begin to sprout new grass blades.

During ideal conditions, you will be able to water your lawn enough to keep it from going dormant. Though water restrictions due to the drought and the cost of irrigating challenged us to find a better solution. Our Drought Defense Program is that solution.

What Is Aeration? 

Aeration in the context of lawn health is the process of incorporating air into the soil. Earthworms and many beneficial microorganisms require oxygen to thrive. A Healthy population of these organisms provides fertile soil. We often think of plants using photosynthesis through their leaves to exchange gasses, but did you know that plants need to breathe through their roots as well? Oxygen in the soil is absorbed through the roots and converted into crucial energy. Healthy soil should contain about 25% oxygen.

Should I Aerate My Lawn and When Should I Do It?

We highly recommend aerating your lawn to maintain its health and vitality. Lawn aeration involves creating small holes in the soil to allow air, water, and nutrients to penetrate deep into the grass roots. This process helps reduce soil compaction, encourages stronger root growth, and improves overall lawn health.

The best time to aerate your lawn in Ogden is during the growing season, typically in the early spring or fall. In spring, aeration helps your lawn recover from winter stress, while fall aeration strengthens the root system before winter dormancy. Aerating during these seasons gives your lawn the best chance to grow thicker and healthier.

If your lawn experiences heavy foot traffic, has clay-heavy soil, or shows signs of thinning or patchy areas, it’s likely in need of aeration. Regular aeration ensures that your grass can absorb the essential nutrients and water it needs to thrive.

How Do I Know if My Lawn Needs Pest Control?

Several signs indicate that your lawn might require pest control:

  • Visible Damage: If you notice patches of dead or dying grass, chewed leaves, or holes in plants, it could indicate a pest problem.
  • Unusual Activity: Keep an eye out for unusual activity, such as an increase in insects like grubs, beetles, or ants in your lawn.
  • Presence of Pests: If you see pests like moles, voles, or rodents actively digging in your lawn, it's a clear sign that you have a pest problem.
  • Brown Spots: Brown or yellow patches of grass can indicate damage from pests like chinch bugs or white grubs.
  • Wilting Plants: If your plants are wilting despite adequate watering, it could be due to root damage caused by pests like nematodes.
  • Tunnels or Mounds: Mounds of soil or tunnels in your lawn created by burrowing pests like moles or voles are a sign of infestation.
  • Increased Weed Growth: Some pests can contribute to weed growth by disturbing the soil, so an increase in weeds could indicate an underlying pest problem.

Regular inspection of your lawn and plants can help you catch pest problems early and take appropriate action to control them before they cause significant damage.
