Services
Lawn Care Programs
Our comprehensive lawn care programs use professional-grade fertilizers to deliver essential nutrients for optimal grass health. We offer customized treatment plans tailored to your lawn's specific needs, including organic options for environmentally-conscious homeowners. With seasonal applications timed to your lawn's growth cycle, we ensure consistent results throughout the year.
Weed Control
Our broadcast applications of liquid weed control effectively target dandelions, violets, Creeping Charlie, and other broadleaf weeds. Using state-approved herbicides, we implement targeted treatments while minimizing environmental impact. Our technicians monitor treated areas to ensure complete weed elimination and prevent regrowth through follow-up applications when needed.
Mosquito Control
Our mosquito and pest control services protect outdoor spaces from insects like mosquitoes, ticks, and grubs. We apply treatments that break insect life cycles while using EPA-registered products safe for families and pets. The service includes perimeter protection to prevent pests from entering homes while maintaining effective lawn coverage.
Liquid Aeration
Liquid aeration improves soil structure and nutrient absorption without disruptive mechanical methods. Our solution breaks down thatch buildup and compaction, allowing water, air, and nutrients to reach grass roots more effectively. This non-invasive treatment works year-round to maintain healthy soil conditions and promote strong root development.
Soil Testing
We conduct comprehensive soil testing to determine pH levels, nutrient content, and soil composition. This scientific approach allows us to create customized fertilization plans that address specific deficiencies. By tailoring treatments to your lawn's unique requirements, we optimize grass health while minimizing unnecessary chemical applications.

Weve been using Emerald for 2 years now and weve never looked back. They are responsive and provide professional guidance and the services that we need to keep our lawn healthy and beautiful. The staff are friendly and informative. Our neighbors always compliment the full, deep green of our lawn. Two of our neighbors have switched to Emerald once they saw the significant improvement to our lawn and heard about the excellent customer service. Emerald is not the cheapest but they are the best and worth the extra money!

I have had experience with other weed control services with unsatisfactory results. Emerald Lawn Care has been a pleasure to work with; my lawn never looked better. The service is well worth the cost and it has been a real joy to communicate with them as they have proven to be very courteous and responsive to my inquiries. I look forward to continuing the service in the seasons to come and will happily recommend them to friends and neighbors.

Report
Our lawn was dead. I was ashamed and embarrassed. We had grubs and chinch bugs that made things even worse. After numerous recommendations by neighbors, I contacted Emerald and spoke with Dave, who laid out the plan and then followed through beautifully. He explained that it was a team effort and after about a month's worth of watering...our lawn is thicker than ever and is the envy of the neighborhood. I enjoy mowing the lawn again thanks to Emerald!

Emerald Lawn Care has a solid reputation for across-the-board quality, and I can now see why. I was very skeptical about reseeding our troubled lawn, but 4 weeks later, the results were great. Used them for fertilizing and weed control as well. Very glad we chose Emerald for all of this, and you should too!
