“A few years ago I had major issues with my lawn. I reached out to a few of the name brands with little satisfaction. I was referred to TLC by the sod company that installed my lawn a few years prior. It was evident on the first call that Kevin knew his “stuff”. The level of education he provided me and the time he committed to teaching me was immeasurable. The saying you get what you pay for stands true with TLC. Don’t be taken by those that hire the cheapest labor and use inferior products. Invest in a true professional that will take care of your lawn as if it were his own. Kevin may not be the biggest or the cheapest lawn care company, but he is the best. Give him a call. It will be worth your time.“

A lawn is no better than the soil below it, regardless of the type of turf grass or whether it’s sod or seed. Sodded lawns provide instant gratification but just like seeded lawns, they suffer without proper fertilization and cultural practice to follow.
Sod is grown under ideal conditions with organic soil, fertilization, and irrigation. It’s then cut, loaded, and relocated to a site that is hot, dry, and unforgiving. New home lawns suffer due to heavily compacted, infertile soil and the misconception that sod is already established and therefore needs little help. In reality, a lawn is considered “new” for the first 20 years – even when sodded! After the first winter, the nutrients in the soil are often too depleted to stimulate growth, making your lawn appear lifeless and brown. Most times this is associated with “excessive thatch” but the poor color is the result of little or no new growth. Fertilizer stimulates shoot growth and regeneration making a fertilized lawn stand out above those with poor color, starving for food.
The situation above is very common. Every spring we receive phone calls from people who think their lawns died over the winter. They want their lawns de-thatched, aerated, and over-seeded, or even, fully replaced! Instead, we can save money and valuable time with a simple fertilization program. Our team will also recommend cultural practices like core aeration and proper cutting techniques to protect your investment. Within the first month, you’ll experience huge gains…..and a happy spouse!
If you don’t give your new lawn the attention it needs, it will fail. Contact us now to learn more about our lawn fertilization services in Cedar Rapids, Fairfax, Swisher, Solon IA, and surrounding areas.
