Lawn Care
Our mowing service is available on a seasonal basis. We offer weekly and biweekly lawn mowing services. The lawn care service Emerald provides will ensure that your lawn is never mowed too short or too closely. Get your lawn mowed by professionals and save time and money. You can count on us to get rid of all lawn clippings from your lawn and take care of your turf on a regular basis.
Keeping your lawn green and healthy over the long term requires fertilization. Nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium are three essential elements for the healthy growth of grass, but are rarely available in sufficient amounts in natural soil processes. In order for grass to grow properly, it needs these elements, which can be provided by fertilization. We also help you with weed and pest problems when you sign up for fertilization services with Emerald.
To maintain a healthy lawn, overseeding is an important lawn care practice known as core aeration or silt seeding. We will overseed your lawn in the spring to provide new growth for the grass.
Landscape Maintenance
In the spring, Emerald will clean up your yard and perform landscape maintenance tasks. These tasks often include:
- Debris removal
- Planting and preparing flower beds
- Pest and weed control
- Plant pruning and trimming
- Mulching planter beds with new mulch
Some Of Our Most Popular Maintenance Services
Shrub Care
Shrub trimming and pruning are essential components of landscape maintenance. Pruning shrubs two to three times a year is generally a good idea. There should also be fertilization of the shrubs, and any diseases must be managed and eradicated.
Tree Service
Most residential yards also require tree service. As well as cutting trees, fertilizing trees, managing tree diseases, and removing trees, we grind stumps.
Insect Control
Our residential customers can rely on Emerald for pest control services such as tick control, mosquito control, winter moth caterpillar control, and more.
Debris Clean-up
You can count on Emerald Landscaping to not allow leaves or debris to kill your lawn. During a heavy rain or hail storm, we will pick up branches, limbs, and other storm debris in your yard. Plant debris will be hauled away by us.
As part of our landscaping service, we can also remove debris at the beginning and end of each season. Alternatively, we can mulch the leaves and leave them in the yard, or we can vacuum the existing leaf pile that you have prepared—it’s up to you. We can dump the leaves off-site at a compost pile or dump them at an off-site location or compost pile.
Mulching
Landscapes typically require mulching service once in the fall. We remove weeds and debris from your garden beds and mulched areas, edge all landscape beds as necessary, and apply new mulch.
Seasonal Flower Rotations
Each season, Emerald Landscaping provides flower plantings to enhance the curb appeal of your property. After preparing the planting beds or pots, we install seasonal flowers, remove dead heads to promote further blooming, and remove the flowers when the growing season ends. Our customers can choose from a variety of colors, and we work with them to choose the perfect shade that complements their property.
Here are some of the most popular options:
- Bulbs (tulips or daffodils)
- Spring pansies
- Summer annuals (petunias, begonias, impatiens, marigolds, etc.)
- Fall pansies
- Mums
- Cabbage and kale
Seasonal flowers can be fertilized and watered upon request or as part of the contract.
