we keep your lawn looking great all year long
Full-Service Lawn Care
Our lawn care program provides a slew of useful services, including regular fertilization, weed control, lawn disease treatments, and lawn insect control. Our team can help nurture the health of your lawn and landscaping throughout the year.
Lawn and soil health requires proactive measures. We make scheduled visits to residential and commercial properties in Morehead City, Newport, Atlantic Beach, and the nearby areas.
Our crew uses a Permagreen ride-on broadcaster and a walk-behind unit to deliver slow-release granular fertilizer for maximum coverage. Our region has four main types of grass, all with different fertilizer needs and treatment schedules.
Here is a basic rundown for each grass type:
- Centipede Grass - Requires 2 treatments in the spring and early summer. The first one occurs two weeks after the grass greens up, the other is needed 30 days after.
- St. Augustine & Zoysia Grass - Requires 4 treatments throughout the year, starting right after the grass greens up, and occurring every 30 days after.
- Bermuda Grass - Requires 6 treatments throughout the year, beginning after the grass greens up, and occurring every 30 days after. Service for this grass typically wraps up around September 1st.
We can also provide tree and shrub fertilization. Please contact our office with any questions about our services.
Weed control Solutions
Our weed control program
We have effective weed control treatments that target the exact types of weeds we encounter in our region. Our crews deliver pre- and post-emergent treatments to prevent growth and to kill weeds that have managed to germinate.
We offer 3 pre-emergent treatments in December, March/April, and August/September. During fertilization, our team will also provide spot treatments where needed. We also provide pH testing to determine which treatments will be most effective.
Common weeds in our area include:
Cool Season Weeds
White & yellow clover
Dandelions
Chickweed
Summer Weeds
Spurge
Wild onion
Nutsedge
Crabgrass
Our team can identify the signs of various lawn diseases and fungus growths in order to treat them before they destroy the plant. If you have had problems in the past with lawn disease, we can offer preventative treatments. Otherwise, we can treat problems as they arise. Below are a few examples of grass types and the diseases that can inflict them:
- Centipede & Zoysia Grass - These grass types commonly suffer from large patch disease, which creates sizable dead areas that are often brown in color.
- Bermuda Grass - This grass often suffers from dollar patch lawn disease, which is easier to prevent that fight. The disease creates dead, brownish round patches scattered throughout the yard.
We provide insect control treatments to target the following bugs:
- Mole crickets
- Grubs
- Armyworms
- Chinch bugs
- Many more
Our lawn pest service begins in the spring with a preventative grub treatment. Grub feeding takes place in March, mating is in January, and eggs are laid in May. Grub activity usually dies down May through August, which is when we return for another treatment.
Expert Installation for a Lush Lawn
sod installation
Installing sod on your property is a great way to achieve a new and beautiful lawn without the wait. It requires a lot less maintenance than traditional grass seed does and, because sod is pre-grown, you will have a lush, green lawn from the day of installation. Our sod installation process includes removing any existing grass and weeds, prepping your soil, and pressing your new sod into place. Not only does our team install sod from scratch, but we can also repair specific spots of sod on your property without having to overhaul your entire lawn and start over. Our company proudly offers our sod installation service to properties in Morehead City, Newport, and Atlantic Beach, North Carolina, as well as nearby areas such as Emerald Isle.
Installing sod on your property is an awesome choice. Our 5-step installation process only takes 1 day and, by the time we leave your property, you’ll be able to enjoy the look of a green lawn due to the fact that sod is pre-grown.
Our sod installation service is pretty straightforward. The 5-step process looks like this:
- Prepare Your Soil - Our team will prepare your lawn for your new sod by first removing your existing grass. We will also get rid of any debris, such as twigs or rocks and items that could get in the way of your sod being laid perfectly.
- Add Topsoil - After preparing your lawn, we will till the soil to even it out and then add a generous layer of topsoil. This is to ensure that the roots of your new sod have enough soil to grab onto and successfully take root.
- Grade the Soil - Once we've added the topsoil, we will grade it to create an even canvas for your sod.
- Place the Sod - Now that the soil is ready, we will begin placing the new sod into even rows with secured seams.
- Press it Down - Once your sod is placed, our crew will use rollers to press it down to secure it even further. This will also encourage the roots of your sod to establish into your soil.
We have been installing sod in the Morehead City area since 2005!
