Does your current lawn care company completely understand what your lawn needs? Having Capital Lawn Care on your property year round presents an ultimate customer experience and maximizes results.
Lawn Aeration
This is a top 3 must have for improving or maintaining your lawn. Core aeration allows for water and air to get into the soil to rejuvenate the roots. The lawn is under a lot of stress throughout the year and this gives it a rest and chance to re-build.
We use an aerator that controls the pressure so we can get the proper cores. Most companies use the walk behinds that might get small cores or none at all.
Some lawns with have softer soil and some very firm. Being able to adjust the psi for the machine is a game changer.
Mowing
We take your lawn mowing service in Excelsior, MN very seriously.
This means that we don’t move around neighborhoods with a one size fits all mentality. Every lawn has specific needs so adjust our heights that week to make sure we don’t cause any issues.
We make sure our blades are always sharp to avoid stress and disease.
If it’s dry we will cut higher to allow for more water retention that week.
We focus on the word STRESS because the health of the lawn is very sensitive. We will avoid turning in the same areas so we don’t rut or cause the lawn to thin out and bring in weeds.
Seeding Your Lawn
We highly recommend pairing seed with aeration. This advances the process for growth and building density. We also will fill in bare areas as needed. We’ve also done large areas when sod wasn’t the better option.
Excelsior, MN is typically very shaded so we make sure we don’t go generic and find out the best seed for your specific property.
Nitrogen Fertilizer
Grass needs food but what specifically does it need?
Nitrogen fertilizer that slow releases is the best option. We use a premium product only because we know that the cheaper fertilizers most Minnesota companies use don’t benefit the lawn at all, only benefits the companies.
We like to apply spring fertilizer the same day we aerate because it really helps absorb quickly into the soil. We have seen great results going into late spring with this combo service.
Note: We love lawn care but for you in Excelsior, MN we are a property management company
Weed Control – Starts with Prevention
We are aware that a lot of people around June and July are looking for the best weed killer for their lawns. Killer is such a harsh term and with that means harsh chemicals. Our goal is to limit how much we spray.
We believe weed control starts with aeration, seeding, proper watering and proper mowing. We understand that crabgrass in Minnesota gets out of hand when warmer temperatures hit. We make sure to focus on prevention.
So how do we prevent weeds? Pre-emergent!
Like most of our customers, we don’t like chemicals. So by getting ahead of the weed game early spring is always our goal. Pre-emergent, when applied at the right time, can make much less need for spraying when the weeds are visible.
Spring and Fall Yard Clean Ups
When spring arrives, the term dethatching is used around town.
Our process doesn’t use an actual dethatching machine but we do power rake and bag in our spring clean up service.
The service also includes blowing out landscape beds of debris. Anything that was left from the fall we take off your property and get the lawn ready for the upcoming season.
Fall clean ups are designed to clean up the yard of any leaves and take them away. We time the clean ups so we don’t need to do a second round but we come out again if needed.
Irrigation Systems
Do you have someone who monitors areas where your zones are correctly watering where they need to be?
Is the company you use adjust the sprinkler system adjust the time per zone during the growing season to make sure your lawn isn’t inviting weeds and disease?
Our full property management service allows us to either set ourselves or instruct you to make the necessary changes.
We know the most common sprinkler systems being used in Minnesota so when a sprinkler head is damaged we can quickly fix it.
Snow Plowing
After a snow storm, we are out plowing driveways and shoveling sidewalks. We understand the steep inclined driveways need more that just clearing of snow. Upon request we will gladly sand and only salt if it’s absolutely necessary to avoid damaging the pavement.
If you have a profession such as an in-home daycare or an on call hospital worker, we take priority in getting your driveway clear before a certain time.
Landscaping
Rock and mulch can wear over time which leads to replacing or adding to the landscape. You might also want to go from a green look outside your front door to adding some color. We have a catalog of plants and flowers that we then put into a custom design for your property.
Our customers love seeing what a garden could look like when applied to their landscaping before they commit to a budget. It also gives them the freedom to make changes to the design and truly create the visual they never had before.
We give you a true before and after for your property. SEE HERE
