What changes the price
Program rounds
A 5-step program costs less per round than one-off feedings.
Lawn size
Material goes by square footage of turf, not lot size.
Weed pressure
Heavy crabgrass or nutsedge calls for a follow-up spot spray.
Grub history
Add a grub preventive where you've had dead patches lift like sod.
What's included
- Spring pre-emergent for crabgrass
- Slow-release fertilizer rounds through the season
- Broadleaf weed control in the lawn
- A grub preventive where the lawn's history calls for it
How a local crew does it
- 01
Read the turf
We look at grass type, shade and last year's weed winners before we pick the first round.
- 02
Pre-emergent first
We put down crabgrass pre-emergent before soil hits 55°F so the seed never germinates.
- 03
Feed on schedule
Slow-release nitrogen rounds through the season keep growth steady, not a dump-and-grow flush.
- 04
Spot-spray weeds
We hit broadleaf weeds and nutsedge when they show, not on a fixed calendar.
When to book in zone 5b
First round goes down in early spring before crabgrass breaks. Cool-season turf wants fall feedings to recover from summer.
