Preparing for Fall Lawn Care

Try as we might to hold onto summer, back-to-school season is here. And, before we know it, the air will turn crisp and fall will be here. As the seasons change, so does your lawn's needs. Instead of growth, it needs maintenance and fall is the prime time to set the stage for a beautiful lawn next year. But, if you’re ready to retire the landscaping tools for the season, our experts at {{company_name}}® are prepared to take over. In addition to fall lawn care tips, our expert service will result in the lawn you’ve always wanted!

Rake Leaves

It’s important to be on top of leaf removal this fall. If left too long, leaves can suffocate the grass and cause fungal diseases. More frequent raking makes the job more manageable, and is best for the grass.

Fertilize Lawn

After aerating your lawn, fertilize it. Applying an even layer of winterizing fertilizer prepares the grass for the next year while deterring dandelion growth in early spring. Attacking springtime weeds is a process that starts now.

Repair Dead Spots

The weather is just right in early fall to repair bald spots in your grass. Begin by raking the area to loosen the soil, and plant a lawn repair mixture. Our philosophy is scientifically unique, and our biological products are specifically tailored to your soil. We make a formulation based on a soil sample from your lawn that helps us create just the right mix. Then, it's important to keep the area moist for 2 weeks, or until you see blades of grass growing.

Our lawn care team is proud to serve our Winston-Salem neighbors by keeping lawns green and thriving every year. Don’t stress about your lawn care to-do list; enlist the help of {{company_name}}®. Contact us today at {{local_phone}} to make an appointment for fall lawn treatments .

Fall overseeding for a healthy, dense lawn
Pre-emergent herbicides stop seeds from developing into seedlings, and grass seed is a seed. Apply most fall pre-emergents, and you block your own overseeding for 12 to 16 weeks. The way out is to choose an active ingredient labeled for use at seeding, or to sequence the two jobs across the calendar. A cart rolls […]
