Easy, Affordable Lawn Care Services in Albany

Albany is freezing, especially during the winter months. Rather than brave the cold trying to manage your lawn, let LawnStarter take the plunge.


The Most Common Grass Types in Albany: Fine fescues, Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass, and turf-type tall fescue.


Winter Lawn Care Tips in Albany: Continue watering as long as temperatures exceed 40 degrees. Protect against road salt, which can kill your grass and trees. Keep your grass at one to two inches, and rake to prevent mold. Cover young tree bark to keep animals from getting into it.


Common Lawn Pests: Grubs, billbugs, sod webworms, and chinch bugs.


Common Lawn Diseases: Brown patch, dollar spot, fairy ring, gray leaf spot, gray snow mold, pink snow mold, red thread, stripe smut of turn, summer patch, take-all patch, anthracnose, and rust.


What Services Do We Offer?: LawnStarter’s pros do more than just lawn care. We pressure wash driveways, clean gutters, and remove trees and tree stumps.


We have a pro for you, no matter what you need. To get started, call or click on us or download our app to receive an instant quote.

Thanks again for making the extra effort in getting to my front yard. I really appreciate it! Your landscapers are the best. I've tried several times and failed to kill weeds and fertilize the lawn. The yard has never looked this good, and the service is exceptional. Keep up the great work!
