Kristen B.'s lawn in Evanston, IL

I Love Lawnstarter and Zane does a great job!! I also appreciate the patient and courteous customer support. I'm too old to understand how to order services using a computer or iPhone. Karen took my information over the phone and scheduled the lawn treatment and hedge trimming for me. Thanks for working with me.

Joey K.'s lawn in Evanston, IL

Arthur is a great guy who always does an awesome job. I was worried putting plants around the pool would created a mess, but he planted shrubs that don't shed. I’m so glad people like him work with LawnStarter. Would recommend his work to anybody.

Easy, Affordable Lawn Care Services in Evanston

Evanston is a delightful place to live with its miles of shoreline streets and lively downtown. But cold winters, cool summers, and sandy soil can take a toll on our lawns. That's where a LawnStarter pro can help. We’ll maintain your lawn with mowing, edging, and trimming. Need more? We also fertilize, aerate, trim bushes, and get rid of weeds.


What Other Services Do We Offer?: LawnStarter's pros do more than just lawn care. From fencing to raised garden bed installation, we do it all.


Here's what our pros know – and what you need to know – about lawn care in Evanston:


Most Common Grass Types: Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass, tall fescue, fine fescue, and bentgrass.


Spring Lawn Care Tips: Control weeds with an herbicide, rake up any leaf debris because mold can grow on wet leaves, and reseed any brown spots.


Fall Lawn Care Tips: Continue to mow your lawn and apply fertilizer. Your soil needs aeration to drain water runoff. Some yards will need an application of pre-emergent herbicides in the fall to keep weeds away once the weather warms in springtime.


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


Common Lawn Diseases: Leaf spot, dollar spot, necrotic ring spot, snow mold, and fairy ring.
