Services
Weed Control
Our broadcast liquid weed control targets dandelions, violets, and creeping charlie while protecting your turf. We use selective herbicides that eliminate broadleaf weeds without harming your grass. Regular applications maintain a clean, uniform lawn appearance.
Fertilization
Professional-grade granular fertilizers deliver balanced nutrients for sustained grass growth. Our programs include slow-release formulas that nourish lawns throughout the growing season. Organic options available for environmentally conscious homeowners.
Mosquito Control
Targeted treatments reduce mosquito populations and create protective barriers around properties. Our perimeter applications control ticks, ants, and spiders while maintaining safety for people and pets through EPA-approved solutions.
Liquid Aeration
Eco-friendly alternative to core aeration that improves soil structure and nutrient absorption. This non-invasive treatment reduces compaction and thatch buildup while promoting deeper root development without lawn disruption.
Overseeding
Strategic grass seed application fills thin areas and enhances turf density. We use premium seed blends matched to local climate conditions, improving lawn resilience against weeds, disease, and environmental stressors.

Report
Weve been using Emerald for 2 years now and weve never looked back. They are responsive and provide professional guidance and the services that we need to keep our lawn healthy and beautiful. The staff are friendly and informative. Our neighbors always compliment the full, deep green of our lawn. Two of our neighbors have switched to Emerald once they saw the significant improvement to our lawn and heard about the excellent customer service. Emerald is not the cheapest but they are the best and worth the extra money!

I have had experience with other weed control services with unsatisfactory results. Emerald Lawn Care has been a pleasure to work with; my lawn never looked better. The service is well worth the cost and it has been a real joy to communicate with them as they have proven to be very courteous and responsive to my inquiries. I look forward to continuing the service in the seasons to come and will happily recommend them to friends and neighbors.

Report
Our lawn was dead. I was ashamed and embarrassed. We had grubs and chinch bugs that made things even worse. After numerous recommendations by neighbors, I contacted Emerald and spoke with Dave, who laid out the plan and then followed through beautifully. He explained that it was a team effort and after about a month's worth of watering...our lawn is thicker than ever and is the envy of the neighborhood. I enjoy mowing the lawn again thanks to Emerald!

Emerald Lawn Care is an excellent company. We have used this company for years now. Our lawn looks great! We often get people asking who takes care of your lawn. We cut it ourselves but Emerald Lawn takes care of all the weed control. We have sent a number of people to them. We would not recommend it if we weren't completely satisfied ! Not only is this company top notch with it's products but the staff is awesome as well in person or by phone! I highly recommend Emerald Lawn!
