Easy, Affordable Lawn Care Services in Dekalb
Dekalb is known for its unpredictable weather, which can make it difficult to maintain a lush and healthy lawn. But don't worry –– LawnStarter is here to help. Our team of lawn care experts is equipped with the knowledge and tools to keep your property in tip-top shape, no matter the weather.
How LawnStarter Can Take Care of Your Lawn: Our pros will mow, trim, and edge your lawn, ensuring it’s well-maintained throughout the year. With LawnStarter, you can sit back, relax, and enjoy a beautiful lawn without lifting a finger.
Common Grass Types: Cool-season grasses, such as Kentucky bluegrass and fine fescue, are great choices for Dekalb lawns.
Best Time to Plant Grass: Planting grass in the fall allows it to establish roots before the hot and dry summer months.
Spring Lawn Care Tips: It's important to aerate your lawn to help improve soil health. This will also help the grassroots absorb more water and nutrients. Additionally, you should fertilize your lawn to give it a boost of nutrients and help it recover from winter damage.
Fall Lawn Care Tips: Prepare your lawn for winter by removing any fallen leaves and branches and overseeding bare spots to ensure a lush lawn in the spring.
Common Lawn Pests and Diseases: Grubs, chinch bugs, armyworms, brown patch, and powdery mildew can be treated with pesticides and regular mowing and watering.
Other Services We Offer: Aside from lawn care, LawnStarter offers other outdoor maintenance services, including power washing, gutter cleaning, and tree removal.

"Overall was a good clean up though I did notice a bunch of weeds still sticking out of the pavers in both the front and back yard. Mowing and edging was great. Still a bunch of leaves and branches in the back. My original request was to also have the back sprayed for mosquitos, not sure if that took place."

Yard Cutting
by Gregory Sanchez
(Dirty Hands Lawn Maintenance)
★★★★
"The yard looks good! I'm very happy with it. However, in the profile, I mentioned that there was a middle gate in the backyard and more of my lawn was beyond the gate that needed to be cut. However, that was not cut. Also, he did not weed eat along the right gate (if looking at the house). Also, didn't weed eat in the pine needles (landscaping) that was along the front and side of the house.) Otherwise, everything else looks good. Please take care of those on the next cut."
