We approach your lawn and landscape care holistically and with the same care and expertise, you have come to expect from all of our local professionals.
Our comprehensive lawn care services include lawn fertilization, weed and insect control, lawn aeration, and liming soils.
We will provide a written proposal, including a schedule of visits. These visits are automatically made throughout the year, at the proper time, in an effort to help meet the seasonal needs of your lawn.
Grass plants are voracious eaters. Each time we mow, grass requires soil nutrients in order to regenerate new growth. Therefore, soil nutrients must be consistently replenished. A proper fertilization program adds these nutrients, resulting in a thick, healthy lawn that can better resist infestations of weeds and insects.
Our Green Team treats for crabgrass, broadleaf weeds, and grassy weeds at the best time for optimal control. To prevent crabgrass, we anticipate the problem and apply a pre-emergent control.
We pride ourselves at Wickes/arborists on providing prompt, professional and personalized service from certified arborists that live, work and engage in your community. Contact your local Wickes specialist for your residential tree care and landscape needs.
Control of turf damaging insects is an essential part of our comprehensive Lawn Healthcare program. The Green Team takes special pride in knowing exactly when to treat your lawn to prevent devastating insect infestations.
Compacted soil reduces the amount of oxygen and water available to the roots and “suffocates” grass plants. Compacted soil needs to be loosened so oxygen and water can get to the plant roots. This special service uses a machine that pulls out small plugs of sod, allowing your soil to breathe and water to reach the roots.
Soils in our area are high in clay content, low in organic matter, and highly acidic. Since grass develops better in neutral to alkaline soil, we add lime to acidic soils to “sweeten” the soil. This brings down the acidity, making a more favorable environment for root growth.
