What we do, and what it costs.
Every price here is a starting price for a typical Charlotte lot, about a quarter acre. Your exact price comes from your lawn's measured size.
Weekly, March through November
Mowing, edging and blowing
Mowed at the right height for your grass, edges cut crisp along the drive and walks, trimmed around beds and fences, and every clipping blown off the hard surfaces. Same crew, same day, every week.

Start the program
Late February
Crabgrass pre-emergent
A barrier that stops crabgrass before it sprouts, and an early feeding to wake the lawn up.
April
Spring feeding and weed control
Dandelions, clover and wild onion treated where they grow, and a feeding for the spring push.
Late May
A second barrier, and grubs
A second pre-emergent for summer, weed control, and grub prevention before the beetles lay eggs.
July
Summer spot treatments
Weeds and insects treated where they show up, and no heavy feeding while fescue is heat-stressed.
September
Starter fertilizer and new seed
Fed for germination alongside fall aeration and overseeding, the visit that rebuilds the lawn.
November
Winterizer
A late feeding that goes to the roots, so the lawn comes out of winter green and thick.

One fall of aeration and seed.
Most Charlotte yards sit on compacted red clay. Core aeration opens it up, and new tall fescue goes straight into the holes. This backyard in Matthews went from March to October.

What the neighbors say.

Lauren, Myers Park
“Our backyard was red clay and crabgrass. One fall of aeration and seed, and now the neighbors ask who we use.”
Marcus, Matthews
“I paused service with one text while we were on vacation, and they picked right back up. No fee, no runaround.”

Do I have to sign a contract?
No. You pay after each visit, and you can pause or cancel any time with a text. Most of our customers have stayed for years anyway.
Do I need to be home?
No. Leave the gate unlocked and the dog inside. We text the evening before, and send a photo of the finished lawn when the crew leaves.
Are the treatments safe for kids and pets?
Keep everyone off the grass until it's dry, usually an hour or two. We leave a small flag in the yard and text you when we're done.
What happens when it rains?
Your visit moves to the next dry day, and we text you when it does. We don't treat a lawn right before heavy rain; it would wash away.
When should I aerate and overseed?
For tall fescue, the lawn most Charlotte yards have, it's September to mid-October. Bermuda and zoysia lawns are aerated in late spring instead. Fall dates fill by Labor Day.
