S & S Landscaping | Licensed Landscaping Services in Imperial, MO

For the tough weeds common in our area, a two-step approach works best. We start with a targeted herbicide application to eliminate existing weeds, followed by implementing a consistent preventive program. This often includes soil conditioning and proper fertilization to help your desired grass outcompete new weeds, creating a thicker, healthier lawn that naturally resists future infestations.

Absolutely. We repair bare patches by first diagnosing the cause—often soil compaction or thinning grass—then aerating, leveling the soil, and overseeding with high-quality grass seed suited for Imperial's climate. With proper watering, you'll see new growth in 1-2 weeks, and the area typically blends seamlessly with your existing lawn within 4-6 weeks, depending on the season.

The key is proactive, seasonal maintenance. We recommend a tailored schedule that includes core aeration in the fall to relieve soil compaction, timely fertilization to strengthen grass roots, and proper mowing practices. A consistent maintenance plan, customized for your specific yard, is the most effective way to build a resilient lawn that crowds out weeds and avoids bare spots year after year.
