Services
Lawn Aeration
Our lawn aeration service improves soil health by creating channels for air, water, and nutrients to reach grass roots. Using professional core aeration equipment, we remove soil plugs to reduce compaction and promote deeper root growth. This essential service enhances drought resistance, improves fertilizer absorption, and creates stronger, healthier turf specifically adapted to Bellingham's climate conditions.
Dethatching
Professional dethatching removes excess thatch buildup that prevents proper water and nutrient absorption. Our power raking process eliminates dead grass layers while preserving living turf, creating space for new growth. We recommend combining this service with aeration and overseeding to restore lawn density and prevent weed invasion in Whatcom County's unique growing environment.
Compost Topdressing
This soil enhancement service applies nutrient-rich compost to improve lawn health and appearance. Our 1/4"-1/2" compost layer replenishes organic matter, enhances moisture retention, and boosts disease resistance. The process specifically addresses Pacific Northwest soil challenges by restoring balanced nutrient levels for sustained turf vitality and color improvement.
Moss Control
Our comprehensive moss management combines ferrous sulfate treatments with pH balancing solutions. We address Bellingham's moss-prone conditions through targeted applications during active growth periods, typically requiring multiple treatments annually. Our approach focuses on creating unfavorable conditions for moss regrowth while promoting healthy grass development.
Seasonal Cleanups
We provide complete seasonal property cleanups for fall leaf removal and spring preparation. Our services include debris clearing, edging restoration, and landscape bed maintenance. We focus on creating clean lines and preparing lawns for seasonal transitions while implementing preventive measures against common Pacific Northwest lawn challenges.
