Soil Treatment
Every lawn we take on gets soil tested first. Not as a formality, because it is the only way to know what the lawn is actually short of.
- Increases rooting potential so the turf can reach water it currently cannot
- Loosens compacted topsoil, which is the usual reason water runs off instead of soaking in
- Improves water retention and nutrient uptake
- Helps with mineral chelation, so what you feed the lawn is actually available to it
- Reduces the stress heat and drought put on the root zone
Feeding a lawn that is starving for something else is the most common way people waste a whole season.
Fertilizer Treatment
Fertilizer between treatments so the turf is fed consistently instead of surging and stalling.
- Even growth across the season rather than a green flush followed by a crash
- Matched to your grass type, because Bermuda and Zoysia do not want the same thing
- Applied on a schedule, not whenever someone remembers
- Golf-course grade products, the same class of material used on managed turf
Seven treatments a year exists for this reason. A lawn is fed continuously or it is fed badly.
Weed Control
Anything growing in your lawn that is not your turf type is competing with it for water, light and nutrients.
- Pre-emergent timed to the season, which stops far more than post-emergent ever will
- Post-emergent for what is already established
- Mixtures chosen for your specific turf, so the treatment does not damage what you want to keep
- Repeated across the year, because weed pressure is not a one-time event
Most people spray once in spring and wonder why it is back in July. Weed control is a calendar, not a bottle.
Fungus Treatment
Georgia humidity is close to ideal for turf disease. Brown patch and dollar spot can take a healthy lawn down in a matter of weeks.
- Identified properly before anything is applied, because the wrong treatment does nothing
- Treated at the point it can still be stopped rather than after the damage
- Preventative applications through the highest-risk part of the season
- Paired with soil work, since a stressed lawn is a susceptible lawn
By the time most people notice fungus, they are looking at recovery rather than prevention.
Lawn Insect Treatment
Perimeter treatments that keep pests outside, plus treatment for the ones doing damage under the surface.
- Perimeter applications so you can actually use the yard
- Grub control, which matters because grubs eat the roots and the damage shows up as drought stress
- Fire ant treatment where it is needed
- Timed to the life cycle, since treating at the wrong point in the season achieves very little
Insect damage is regularly mistaken for drought. If a patch will not recover no matter how much you water it, look underneath.
