Expert Landscaping in Bessemer, AL 35020 - Blast & Company

We start with a soil analysis to identify nutrient deficiencies or compaction causing patchiness. Our service includes core aeration to improve soil health, followed by overseeding with grass varieties suited to our local climate and soil. A customized fertilization plan then ensures the new and existing grass receives the right nutrients to grow in thick and strong, effectively filling in those bare spots.

We use a multi-step method. First, we manually remove existing weeds and apply a pre-emergent herbicide specifically formulated for Southern weeds to prevent new growth. Then, we refresh the mulch layer to the proper depth (2-3 inches), which is crucial for suppressing weed seeds. We also recommend and can install high-quality landscape fabric beneath new mulch for long-term control in problem areas.

Absolutely. Consistency is key in our climate. A scheduled maintenance plan with Blast & Company provides proactive, seasonally-timed treatments. This includes pre-emergent weed control in early spring, balanced fertilization to strengthen grass against stress and disease, and proper mowing guidance. This regular care builds a healthier, denser lawn that naturally resists weeds and patchiness, saving you time and hassle in the long run.
