Lawn Fertilizing
Our lawn fertilizing programs use liquid, slow-release granular, or organic formulations applied every 5-6 weeks. These treatments promote consistent green growth while preventing weed infestation. Each application delivers essential nutrients that strengthen root systems and improve drought resistance. Our calibrated approach ensures even coverage for optimal lawn health.
Weed Control
Targeted weed control applications eliminate broadleaf weeds through spot treatments tailored to Calgary's specific conditions. Our integrated approach combines pre-emergent and post-emergent solutions while maintaining environmental safety. Treatments are included in all fertilization packages for comprehensive lawn maintenance.
Mosquito Guard
This eco-friendly mosquito control system creates protective barriers around outdoor spaces using low-odour, pet-safe formulations. Monthly treatments target both adult mosquitoes and breeding sites, providing season-long protection. The solution effectively reduces pest populations without harming beneficial insects or vegetation.
Lawn Aeration
Mechanical aeration reduces soil compaction and thatch buildup while improving water and nutrient absorption. Our core aeration process leaves plugs on-site to decompose naturally, enriching soil structure. Recommended annual treatments enhance root development and fertilizer efficiency for healthier turf.
Power Raking
Power raking eliminates dead grass and excess thatch buildup to promote new growth. The process includes machine raking, hand detailing, and clippings management using compostable collection bags. Recommended spring treatments prepare lawns for seasonal growth while improving overall turf density.

This will be our 2nd year using these guys. We had struggled for years to have a healthy weed free lawn. After the first application last year, the result was incredible. Both lawns look amazing already! Amazing value. Cant wait to enjoy my yard this season

Have been using Greener Grass for 5 or 6 years now. Have them set-up on auto renew so I don't even have to remember to book every spring, it just gets done. Super friendly, billing is always accurate, and I have them set-up to call the day before each application so I can adjust my sprinkler schedule accordingly. They make keeping my grass greener super easy.

Well after trying many of these companies, the small ones, the too big to care ones, I have found the best one. They are honest, on time and do a extremely professional job in all elements of their services. Their price is excellent but the value is off the charts. Now if they could add a service to remove dog stains they would be perfect... I would recommend to anyone ...and I am picky!!
