Lawn Maintenance

It’s much easier to keep your lawn healthy and beautiful with proper lawn maintenance than it is to rehabilitate it after it’s begun to show signs of distress. A lawn that has been properly maintained will have improved health and longevity, but properly maintaining your lawn takes time and work. Let Riedel's Garden Center do the work for you. We offer a full range of professional lawn maintenance services that will keep your lawn healthy and resilient while freeing up your time for more enjoyable activities. We will customize a lawn maintenance plan specific to your needs from our full range of lawn maintenance services:

Mowing – The lawn care experts at Riedel's Garden Center know the optimal lawn mowing frequency and height for your specific species of grass. We will mow your lawn, trim, edge, and remove any limbs or debris. We can bag or mulch your clippings based on your preference. We will also clear debris and clippings from your driveway and walkways.

Mulching – Mulch provides a number of benefits to your lawn, including protecting it against weed growth, soil erosion, and loss of moisture. It also helps insulate plants during more extreme temperatures. But over time it can break down and needs to be replaced. We can replace your mulch as needed throughout the year.

Fertilizer Treatment – The right nutrients can help your lawn flourish, but they need to be applied at the right time and in the proper amounts. Our experts know the perfect fertilizer treatment for your grass species and lawn concerns and will establish a fertilization schedule specifically tailored to your needs.

Insect and Weed Control – Don’t let weeds and insects ruin your beautiful lawn. Our lawn care experts can effectively treat your insect or weed infestations without harming your grass or other vegetation.

Specialized Services – Riedel's Garden Center offers specialty lawn maintenance services to keep your lawn healthy and lush. Dethatching will cut through thick thatch that may have built up to allow air, water, fertilizer, and nutrients to reach the roots of the grass more easily. Overseeding will fill in sparse or bare patches in your lawn and improve the grass density. We also offer aerating and slicing services. These terms often get confused with each other but are very different lawn treatments that serve specific lawn goals. Aeration is used to break up soil compaction by cutting holes into the soil. This allows moisture, air, and fertilizers to better penetrate the soil and feed the grassroots at a deeper level. Slicing, also called slit seeding or slice seeding uses a machine with rotating blades to cut deep grooves in the soil and then drop seeds into those grooves, tucking them directly into the soil. This ensures that the grass seed comes into full contact with the soil, which provides a better chance at germination. Which lawn treatment to use depends on the needs of your lawn. If your lawn is thick and growing well, aeration should be performed to break up soil compaction and should be followed with fertilizer. If your lawn is spotty with some thin or bare areas, slicing is the optimal treatment. If your lawn is spotty and compacted, both lawn treatments may be in order.
