Treatments For A Healthy Lawn
Essential services for lush green grass
Maintaining a beautiful, healthy lawn includes a variety of lawn care services essential for achieving the lush green grass that every homeowner dreams of. To ensure your lawn stays healthy and in the best condition year-round, we recommend spring and fall fertilization, overseeding, and core aeration.
The Key to a Lush, Green Lawn: Fertilization
Fertilization remains a cornerstone of lawn care services. We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we design our fertilization programs tailored to address the unique nutritional needs of your lawn. Through careful analysis, we identify what your turf is lacking and formulate a plan that reintroduces essential nutrients back into the soil. This promotes robust growth and a visibly healthier appearance.
A well-nourished lawn does more than look pretty. It becomes more resilient against environmental stressors such as drought, heat, and cold. Our expert application of high-quality fertilizers ensures that your grass receives a balanced diet, fueling its development from the roots up to thrive under a variety of conditions. Furthermore, it encourages a dense root system, crucial for long-term lawn health and vitality.
We take into account the timing of our applications to maximize the benefits of each fertilization treatment. This ensures your lawn receives the nutrients it needs when it needs them.
Get the Most From Your Lawn Year Round
Feeding your lawn is the best investment you can make for your lawn. Turf grasses must be properly fertilized and watered to maintain the right color, thickness and health. You’ll find that a well-fed and watered lawn recovers more quickly from stress and is more aggressive against weeds. As with all living things, proper nutrition and watering is important to prevent diseases and insects.

Fill in the Gaps for a Denser Lawn with Overseeding
Lawn Authority skillfully addresses areas of thinning grass and underperformance with strategic seed application. This practice introduces a fresh batch of grass seed to your existing lawn to enhance its density and resilience. By integrating new varieties of grass into the mix, overseeding helps to rejuvenate and create a more lush lawn.
Overseeding also naturally discourages weed invasion and pests. Our experts carefully select seed blends that complement and thrive within your lawn’s specific conditions. We consider things like shade tolerance and drought resistance for seamless integration and vibrant growth.
Benefits of Overseeding for your lawn:
- Thicken & beautify your lawn.
- Help prevent crabgrass & other weeds.
- Builds a healthy & drought-tolerant lawn.
- Aeration is highly recommended prior to overseeding.
When mixed with aeration and a quality fertilizer program you have the proven recipe for a great-looking lawn. Overseeding makes up for the natural deceleration of a turf’s reproduction. In addition, Lawn Authority uses the latest, disease-tolerant seed varieties that deliver better germination.
Core Aeration Lets Your Lawn Breathe
Vital to the health and resilience of your lawn, core aeration is an integral part of our lawn care services. It involves the removal of small soil plugs from your lawn to relieve soil compaction and bring more oxygen, water, nutrients, seeds, and fertilizers to the foundation of your turf.
The common challenge of soil compaction can hinder the growth of your grass by limiting the essential resources needed to thrive. By creating these openings in the soil, core aeration encourages a more vibrant, healthier lawn by permitting deeper root growth and improving soil structure.
The benefits of core aeration extend beyond immediate soil improvement; it also sets the stage for more effective fertilization and overseeding. With the soil more receptive, nutrients from fertilization can reach deeper into the ground, and seeds from overseeding have better soil contact for germination.
Benefits for your lawn:
- Keeps the grass growing healthy
- Keeps soil from compacting
- Promotes a deep rich green when mixed with a quality fertilizer program
- Decreases weed invasion
- Protects your investment
- Aeration is a great time to overseed
