Preserving your home lawn care investment is critical to the long-term valuation of real estate property. To add beauty and value to your residential property, you make a significant investment in trees, shrubbery, turf and, often, water features. Berger Hargis Landscape Management has been recognized as one of the region's foremost specialists in ornamental, turf and pond management for residential applications. Our specialized Lawn Care Division is dedicated to providing the most advanced, state-of-the-art technology in nutrition and disease control through applications for turf, tree, shrubs and aquatic care.

A healthy lawn provides several benefits. A well maintained lawn can increase a home's value, help prevent erosion and run off of water, generate oxygen and even provide natural air conditioning. Lawns in Indiana need all the help they can get to remain healthy and vigorous. Most of our lawns are grown on heavy clay soils that are lacking in naturally occurring nutrients. Proper fertilization and weed control helps turf fight off the stress of traffic, drought, disease, and insect pests. Our lawn care programs provide environmentally responsible applications to promote healthy, dense, dark green turf that will be an asset to your property.

First, your old turf is removed using a small non-intrusive machine. Second, your existing soil is tilled and additional top soil may be added to prepare lawn for seeding/sod and fertilizing. Most homeowners have busy schedules and can not lightly water 2 to 3 times per day as needed. Grass will still grow if it does not get this care but please keep in mind that the results of the grass germination will be reduced proportionately to the post seeding care that the homeowner provides. There is no magic formula for growing grass!

Ornamental trees and shrubs accentuate any landscape with blossoms and unique shapes. Unfortunately, ornamental plants require periodic pruning. Trees need to be properly pruned to retain their natural appearance. Pruning also ensures that your landscaping remains uniform and that the plants do not overgrow an area. Problems can arise when plants grow onto a building or impede walkways or drives. Sheering a tree like a bush can cause permanent damage and cause future pruning to be required more often.

These are serious questions which Berger Hargis can help you answer and help you with the best course of action. Note that insurance evaluations are a $75 fee.
