Marama Landscaping - Lilburn's Professional Landscaping Services

In our Lilburn area, we frequently see issues like Brown Patch and Dollar Spot, especially during our humid summers. We start with a proper diagnosis, as treatment varies. Our approach includes targeted fungicide applications, coupled with cultural practices like adjusting your mowing height and watering schedule to create an environment where your grass can recover and resist future outbreaks.

Absolutely. Simply pulling weeds is a temporary fix. Our strategy for Lilburn lawns involves a proactive, multi-step program. We apply pre-emergent herbicides at critical times to stop weed seeds from germinating, combined with spot treatments for existing weeds. We also recommend improving lawn density through proper fertilization and aeration, so your healthy grass naturally crowds out weeds.

The single most impactful step is proper mowing. For most Lilburn lawns, we recommend keeping your grass at about 3-4 inches tall. Taller grass shades the soil, which helps prevent weed seeds from sprouting and reduces surface moisture that can lead to fungus. It also promotes deeper roots, making your lawn more drought-tolerant and resilient against disease and pests common in our area.
