Shefsky's Property Maintenance | Lawn Services & Landscaping in Holland, PA 18966

Patchy grass is often caused by soil compaction, poor nutrition, or thin turf. Our lawn care program includes core aeration to relieve compaction, followed by overseeding with high-quality grass blends suited for our local climate. We then apply a balanced fertilizer to nourish the new and existing grass, encouraging dense, uniform growth to fill in those bare spots effectively.

The key is a proactive, two-step approach. First, we meticulously edge and refresh your mulch beds, removing existing weeds and old, decomposed mulch. Then, we apply a fresh layer of mulch at the proper depth, which naturally suppresses weed germination. For long-term control, we can apply a pre-emergent herbicide specifically designed for landscape beds, creating a protective barrier that keeps weeds out all season.

For our local climate, early spring is crucial. Starting a customized care plan in March or April allows us to apply pre-emergent weed control and early-season fertilizer. This timing strengthens your grass roots before summer stress and stops weeds like crabgrass when they are most vulnerable. Consistent care through fall ensures your lawn enters winter healthy and ready to rebound beautifully next year.
