TOTAL YARD- REGULAR MAINTENANCE PACKAGE |
Mowing
This includes edging and blowing of walks, drives, and patios. Mowing is scheduled on a 7 or 10 day interval, depending on the package you select, the growth pattern of your lawn, and the season of the year.
Lawn/Amendments
Lawn fertilizer (granular slow-release) is applied bimonthly for a healthy lawn year round.
Lime (a soil sweetener), is applied in the spring and/or fall.
Ferrous Sulfate (moss killer) is applied as needed depending on the condition of your lawn
Plant Fertilizer
For woody plants such as Rhododendrons or Azaleas, is applied once per year.
Aeration and seed
Aeration or “plugging” of the lawn is done once a year. This oxygenates the root structure of your lawn, while promoting drainage and nutrient absorption.
Weed Control (Herbicides)
Lawns- We use a selective contact herbicide designed to kill broadleaf weeds and clover in your grass.Several applications may be necessary to eradicate persistent weeds. We apply this in the summer months as the herbicide is most effective in warmer weather conditions.
Flower beds - We use a variety of products, including contact and residual (long term) controls. This usually requires a year round program because seeds can be transferred by birds, wind, and neighbors’ yards. Applications are made every two months, more if needed.
Weeding
This service is provided 2-3 times per month, or as needed on a 12 month basis.
Expert pruning
Yardmaster can take care of all your pruning needs with trained personnel in each method of pruning, including: fruit trees, hedges, shrubs, and roses; shaping, clouding, and thinning of trees, etc. Most pruning of trees is performed in the fall-winter months when pruning creates the least amount of stress. Other pruning is completed as needed. *Note: Yardmaster will prune trees/hedges not exceeding twenty- five feet in height.
Leaf cleanup
Yardmaster will perform 2 major leaf cleanups per fall season in addition to regular maintenance.
