Masko Contracting | Qualified Landscapers in Lexington, MO

Regular, professional maintenance is key to preventing and controlling the common lawn insect issues we see in Lexington. Our team at Masko Contracting uses a proactive approach, including proper mowing heights, strategic aeration, and targeted treatments when necessary, to create a healthier, more resilient turf that naturally resists pests. We can identify early signs of infestation—like brown patches or increased bird activity—and address them before they cause significant damage to your lawn.

Given the soil conditions and freeze-thaw cycles in Lexington, we recommend and install heavy-duty, professional-grade steel or aluminum edging. Unlike plastic or rubber options that can crack or warp, metal edging provides a permanent, crisp border that withstands weather, lawnmower impacts, and root pressure. Proper installation is just as important as the material, and our team ensures it's set at the correct depth and secured to prevent the shifting and damage common in local landscapes.

Absolutely. Overgrown or unhealthy trees can contribute to both insect problems and edging damage. Dense canopies create excess shade and moisture, encouraging insect habitats, while invasive surface roots can heave and destroy landscape borders. Our expert tree care, including strategic pruning, canopy thinning, and root management, improves air circulation and sunlight for your lawn while directing root growth away from your edging and hardscapes, providing a holistic solution for your Lexington property.
