Lawn care in Pawtucket
Our lawn care in Pawtucket covers homes and businesses alike: mowing, feeding, weed control, aeration and the spring and fall cleanups.
A bare patch in spring tempts most of us to throw down seed, and here the weather often undoes it. Pawtucket gets about 48 inches of rain a year, and the heavy downpours make new seed hard to establish and can wash it straight off a slope. That is why we often point an owner starting a lawn on a grade toward "sod", and why the seeding we do lands in early fall, when the soil is warm and the weeds are not competing.
The median home in the city was built in 1947, so plenty of the lawns we look after sit on older lots: narrow side yards, tight gates, mature trees, and soil that has often been walked hard for a long time.
- MowingCut, "string trimming" along fences and walls, edged and blown clean.
- Feeding"Slow-release fertilization" that holds the color between visits.
- Weed controlA "pre-emergent" for crabgrass, then spot treatment for the rest.
- Aeration"Core aeration" to loosen packed soil, with overseeding after.
- Seasonal cleanupsSpring and fall, beds and lawn cleared and hauled away.
