Lawn MaintenanceSeeding or sodding will improve any new property or landscape. There are many different types of seed and it is important to choose the right one for your area. However, before choosing the right grass it is more important to survey the soil to provide a healthy environment for a flourishing landscape.
If you are building a new property or improving an existing one, the soil should be analyzed for proper acidity, plant nutrients and lime requirements. This will ensure the ground is ready to support new grass, trees and other plants. There are many additional things to consider in the preparation of your soil. Some of these include compaction, amendments, tilling/grading, and sloping the land for proper water run-off. |

Pest Control
Everyone wants a landscape they can be proud of. Our pest control service keeps the bugs and other nuisances off your property so you can use it to the fullest. Do not allow the pests to keep you from enjoying the space you have invested much time and energy in. Repelling insects and other pests goes a lot further than just a lawn treatment. Most of the pest problem can be done organically by properly placing the plants far enough away from the home, planting ornamental flowers with natural repelling abilities and laying certain types of mulch.

FertilizingOnce everything is in place, fertilizing is a must for healthy grass. There are many important factors to choosing the right kind of fertilizer and the proper way to apply it. The most important thing to keep in mind is the amount of the fertilizer applied and it’s chemical composition. Too much can damage a healthy lawn and cause nonpoint source (NPS) pollution. The chemical composition will determine how much should be applied and if it will mix well with the soil that exists on the property.

Aerating
Our Lawn Aeration Service has proved be vital for landscape protection. Once the lawn is in place it is very important to make sure it continues receiving plenty of water, nutrients and air to help the roots grow deep. This provides a strong, thriving landscape. One easy way to accomplish this is to poke holes into the soil. Usually this service should be done when the soil is compacted or there is a thatch problem. However, this doesn’t always fix the problem and can actually cause greater compaction around the area. It is recommended to aerate by removing a plug of grass and soil from the lawn to avoid this problem.
Tree Trimming and Removal Services
|
Trees in South Florida are very important because they provide shade and beauty to any landscape. However, much more upkeep is required due to the severe weather patterns and the likely possibility of these trees endangering those around them. We take our tree removal, trimming and maintenance very seriously. Things to consider when removing or trimming a tree involve the location of the tree, the type of tree, and the manner in which it is done. The locality is important when the tree falls on a property line or hanging over structures. The type of tree is considered due to the large number of protected specimen in the area. All regulations are to be considered in this highly risky service and all precautions will be taken. Avoid unnecessary liability risks and have professionals handle this service for you.

Irrigation and watering your lawnWhile the soil is being analyzed and properly adjusted it is important to have all the necessary irrigation systems put into place according to design specifications to avoid hassle in the future. This should be done by a professional irrigation service in order to ensure the lawn and the all foliage such as plants, trees and any other important areas are covered. In areas like South Florida where rainfall can be heavy, it may be necessary to install sensors or smart controllers to estimate the amount of water needed to avoid over watering. Timing is also very important for water absorption and overall efficiency. This system should be put into place before anything is planted.
