Landscaping Services Burlington WI | Call Kmetz Landscape Design

In our area, bare patches often stem from compacted soil, which prevents water and nutrients from reaching grassroots, or from disease/thinning that allows weeds to invade. Weeds thrive in these weak spots. Our service starts with a soil and turf analysis to identify the root cause—whether it's pH imbalance, thatch, or drainage—then we implement a corrective plan including aeration, overseeding with hardy blends, and a targeted weed management strategy to break the cycle for good.

A full renovation is our most comprehensive solution for severely affected lawns. We begin by completely removing the existing troubled turf and invasive weeds. Next, we amend the Burlington-area soil with organic matter to improve structure and fertility. We then install a new, high-quality sod or seed with a dense, disease-resistant grass variety suited for our local climate. This process essentially gives your lawn a fresh, healthy start, eliminating the existing weed seed bank and establishing a thick turf that naturally resists future weed pressure and bare spots.

Absolutely. We use an integrated approach. For broadleaf weeds like dandelions and creeping Charlie common here, we apply selective, professional-grade herbicides that target weeds without harming desirable turfgrass. For areas near gardens or for clients preferring organic options, we utilize manual removal and cultural practices like proper mowing height and fertilization to strengthen your grass, making it more competitive against weeds. Our goal is always a safe, effective, and tailored program for your specific Burlington property.
