Hillside Lawn & Landscape - Teutopolis's Certified Landscapers

For patchy grass common in our area, a combination of core aeration and overseeding is highly effective. Aeration relieves soil compaction, allowing water, air, and nutrients to reach the roots. We then overseed with high-quality grass blends suited to our local climate, which fills in thin spots and creates a denser, more resilient turf that naturally crowds out weeds.

Prevention is key. We recommend a proactive, multi-step program that includes pre-emergent applications in early spring to stop weed seeds from germinating, followed by targeted post-emergent treatments for any breakthrough. Most importantly, we focus on building a thick, healthy lawn through proper fertilization and mowing practices, as strong grass is the best natural defense against weed infestation.

Absolutely. Our comprehensive lawn care programs are designed to tackle these interconnected issues simultaneously. We customize a plan that includes soil analysis, balanced fertilization to feed your grass, strategic weed control, and cultural practices like proper mowing guidance. This holistic approach doesn't just eliminate current weeds; it builds a healthier lawn ecosystem that resists future problems, saving you time and effort in the long run.
