Services
Fertilizer Programs
Our 6-step granular fertilizer program delivers steady nutrients for 6 weeks per application, with weed control included on every visit. Golf course-quality products ensure effective Creeping Charlie elimination while improving soil health. Prepaid discounts available.
Dethatching
We perform triple-pass dethatching in spring to reduce thatch layers, prevent lawn disease, and improve water/nutrient penetration. This service helps establish thicker, healthier turf by removing dead organic debris buildup.
Snow Removal
Commercial and residential snow plowing services feature timely response with multiple plow trucks. Ice control applications ensure safe walkways and parking areas throughout Wisconsin winters, with priority service for commercial clients.
Lawn Aeration
Fall aeration pulls soil plugs to reduce compaction, enhance root growth, and improve disease resistance. This service works best when combined with overseeding and is scheduled after marking underground irrigation systems.
Soil Testing
Our $79 soil testing service analyzes pH levels, phosphorus, potassium, and organic matter content. We provide customized lime and fertilizer recommendations via email after sampling your lawn to optimize nutrient balance.
