Fertilization & Weed Control in Maryland Heights, MO
Fertilization and weed control for Maryland Heights, with separate programs for fescue and the zoysia common in older subdivisions. About twenty-five minutes from our shop.
Lawn treatments in Maryland Heights
Maryland Heights is about twenty-five to thirty minutes from our shop at 2743 Hwy P in O'Fallon. The 1960s through 1980s subdivisions, like Maryland Oaks, Pheasant Run, and Millstone Manor West, have a real mix of fescue and zoysia, and the two grasses need opposite schedules. Fescue is fed in spring and fall. Zoysia is fed only from May through August and left alone when it is dormant.
The first thing we do is identify what you have. Fescue lawns get the five-round program: early spring fertilizer with crabgrass pre-emergent, late spring feeding with broadleaf control, a summer treatment, early fall fertilizer, and a late fall winterizer. Zoysia lawns get a summer-weighted program with pre-emergent in spring. Condo and HOA common ground goes on one schedule with one invoice to the board.
What the program includes
Early spring fertilizer with crabgrass pre-emergent
Late spring feeding with broadleaf weed control for dandelions, clover, henbit, and plantain
Summer treatment timed for heat, with spot-spraying of weeds that break through
Early fall fertilizer to rebuild roots after summer stress
Late fall winterizer so the lawn greens up early next spring

How fertilization & weed control works in Maryland Heights
From the first call to a finished yard, here is what to expect.
Tell us about your yard
Call (636) 293-9306 or send the form with your Maryland Heights address and what you need. We reply the same business day.
We measure and quote the lawn
The price is based on your Maryland Heights lawn's square footage. You get a per-application price and the full season schedule up front.
Applications on schedule
Each round goes down in its window, timed to soil temperature rather than a calendar date. You do not need to be home.
A thicker lawn each year
Dense turf crowds out weeds on its own. By the second season most lawns need far less spot treatment.
One yard, two grasses
A typical Maryland Heights ranch has fescue under the front-yard oak and zoysia in the sunny backyard, and feeding both the same way hurts one of them. We run each at its own time and keep the products matched. Lawns in the lower areas near Creve Coeur Lake pick up nutsedge in wet springs, and violets show up under the older trees; both get their own treatment on the summer and fall rounds.
What fertilization costs in Maryland Heights
Fertilization and weed control in Maryland Heights is priced per application, quoted for free from a measurement of your turf. The price depends on:
Lawn square footage. Product is applied by area, so a larger lawn costs more per round.
Number of rounds. The standard program is five applications. Lawns coming off a rough year sometimes add a sixth.
Current condition. A lawn that is mostly weeds needs heavier broadleaf treatment the first season.
Add-ons. Grub control, fall aeration, overseeding, and lime for acidic soil can be added to the program.
