Starting at $75 per application for most properties
Tall Fescue lawns in Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania, and Stafford County need 4-6 fertilizer applications per year for optimal health. Each application is timed to match grass growth cycles and Virginia's seasonal conditions.
Fall fertilization is the most important—it prepares lawns for winter and encourages strong spring growth. Results are typically visible within 2-3 weeks after application.

We use professional-grade products designed for Virginia lawns. Applications are timed based on soil temperature and grass growth, not a fixed calendar schedule. This produces better results and reduces waste.
After treatment, we provide instructions on watering and lawn care. Some products need to be watered in immediately. Others work best when left on the grass for 24 hours. We'll explain what to do after each application.
Pricing is based on lawn size and number of treatments. Most homeowners choose a seasonal program with 4-5 applications spread throughout the year. Single applications are also available for specific problems.

Professional fertilization and weed control is ideal for homeowners in Fredericksburg who want a thick, healthy lawn without bare spots or weed problems. This service works well if you:
"Virginia red clay is naturally acidic, and that affects everything from nutrient availability to weed pressure. A lot of big-box fertilizer programs ignore this—they use the same products everywhere. We adjust our approach based on actual soil conditions in Fredericksburg. In neighborhoods like Lee's Hill, Fawn Lake, and Embrey Mill where we do ongoing fertilization programs, I've seen lawns transform from patchy and weed-filled to thick and healthy within one growing season when you get the timing and products right."

We evaluate your lawn's current condition and create a seasonal treatment plan based on grass type, soil conditions, and weed pressure.
We apply fertilizer and weed control products at optimal times throughout the year. Treatments are scheduled based on weather and grass growth cycles.
We track your lawn's response to treatments and adjust applications as needed. You'll see healthier grass and fewer weeds over time.
We provide fertilization and weed control throughout Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania County, and Stafford County. Our programs are tailored to the acidic red clay soil conditions common in Central Virginia—the same heavy clay you'll find in established neighborhoods like College Heights and newer developments like Harrison Village alike.
In Spotsylvania communities like Fawn Lake and Lee's Hill, we often see lawns struggling with pH imbalance from years of pine needle accumulation. In Stafford's newer construction areas like Embrey Mill and Leeland Station, the stripped topsoil and compacted subgrade left by builders requires a different nutrient approach to build soil health over time. Whether you're in an established Fredericksburg neighborhood or a growing Stafford community, we adjust our applications to what your specific soil needs.
