Short's Commerical and Residential Landscaping Service - Akron's Certified Landscapers

Yes, brown patches are a common sign of lawn fungus in our humid Akron climate. We start with a precise diagnosis to identify the specific fungus, then apply targeted, professional-grade treatments to stop its spread. We'll also provide advice on watering and mowing practices to help prevent future outbreaks and nurse your lawn back to health.

Dying shrubs in Akron are often caused by disease, pest infestations, or improper planting for our soil. Our experts can assess the cause—whether it's root rot, insects, or environmental stress. We provide treatments like pruning, soil amendments, or targeted pest control. If salvageable, we'll revive them; if not, we can recommend and install hardy, native replacements suited for our area.

We offer customized seasonal maintenance plans to proactively protect your Akron landscape. This includes scheduled fungicide applications, proper fertilization to strengthen grass and plants, aeration to improve soil health, and expert pruning. Consistent, knowledgeable care is the best defense against the recurring lawn and shrub problems common in our region.
