Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How often should I schedule lawn care services in Denver?
We recommend the lawn be fertilized every 4-6 weeks throughout the year. With our full lawn care program, this would include spot treating for weeds. An arborist can help determine how often lawn care services would be needed for your lawn area once they do a site assessment.What makes lawn care in Denver different from other regions?
Denver’s semi-arid climate, soil composition, and distinct seasons make lawn care different from other regions. Our program fully takes all of these factors into account when planning your specialized lawn treatments.What types of grass grow best in the Denver climate?
Kentucky Bluegrass is the most common type of grass grown in Denver. If the areas are very shaded it is best to incorporate other types of grass such as tall or fine fescue grasses.What’s the difference between overseeding and reseeding?
Reseeding usually refers to starting a new lawn from scratch using grass seed. Overseeding is the process of adding new seed to an existing lawn to fill in thin or bare patches or to introduce stronger grass varieties. Both methods help improve lawn density and appearance.How do I know if my lawn needs reseeding?
Your lawn may need reseeding/overseeding if you have bare areas or uneven patches in the lawn. This can be caused by too much shade, improper irrigation, insects or diseases. If you are curious if your lawn needs overseeding, an arborist can do a site assessment to help you determine what would be best.How do you treat weeds without damaging my lawn?
We use specialized selective herbicides that are only labeled for treating weeds without damaging the lawn.What’s the difference between organic and synthetic fertilization?
Synthetic fertilizers are manufactured from synthetic compounds and minerals that deliver nutrients quickly resulting in a faster result of growth and color. Organic fertilizers are derived from organic material such as manure, compost, bone meal or plant matter. They stimulate beneficial soil microorganisms to improve the soil structure. Although the color and growth results may be slower with organic, it will help maintain lawn health over a long period of time.Do you offer one-time lawn treatments or seasonal packages?
