Our Free 14 Point Lawn Analysis...

If you live in Niagara, Orleans, or Erie county and would like a free, no obligation price quote and free lawn analysis, click here or give us a call at one of the numbers at the left. We are looking forward to working with you towards a lawn we can both be proud of. Our 14 Point Analysis considers the following: (Natural organic methods that are safe for children, pets and the environment are available in most cases)

  1. Type of Grasses and Condition:
    Perennial grasses you now have that are desirable. We also include a note of overall condition of the lawn.

  2. Controllable Weed Grasses:
    Annual grasses that are undesirable such as crabgrass. Controlled by preventing their seed from germinating with our pre-emergent weed control application in early spring.

  3. Controllable Weeds:
    Such as, Dandelions which are controlled in the spring and fall.

  4. Hard to Control Weeds:
    Weeds that may require multiple applications to bring under control.

  5. Summer Insects:
    Surface feeding insects that cause damage to your lawn during the summer. Controlled through applications and monitoring and we guarantee results. If any damage occurs to your lawn due to insects we will pay to repair any damage.

  6. Below the Surface Insects:
    Grubs - these insects feed below the surface of your lawn on the roots of the grass. Usually occurring in the spring and the fall. Controlled with a special application.

  7. Uncontrollable Wide Blade Grass:
    Unfortunately these cannot be controlled without harming the desirable grass.

  8. Diseases:
    During certain weather conditions diseases may occur. Proper cultural practices usually provide adequate control. If problems persist other remedies will be discussed and a treatment provided.

  9. Other Problems:
    Problems which might cause permanent damage and require minor reseeding.

  10. Present Cutting Height:
    This is one of the most important factors in the overall health of a lawn. It is often referred to as one of the cultural practices which you the homeowner can perform at no cost to you.

  11. Amount of Thatch:
    Thatch is a layer of living and dead leaves, stems and roots just above the soil.  Too much thatch will reduce a lawn's response to fertilizers and affects watering practices. Some thatch is not only good but necessary to the overall health of the lawn. Disease and insect problems are greater where thatch is excessive.

  12. Root Depth:
    The depth of the plant below the soil level. As a rule of thumb if the grass is cut 2 3/4 inches then the root depth should be the same. The object is to maintain a root depth as deep as possible to maintain a healthy lawn.

  13. Soil Type:
    Knowing the type and condition of your soil will help determine your lawn's needs.  If soil is compacted, core aeration is recommended.

  14. Depth to Clay:
    The depth in inches to the clay layer if any. In most cases this layer is beneficial in preventing rapid leeching of both moisture and nutrient to a depth deeper than the plant can reach.
