Hire the Best Lawn Care Service in Jersey City

The city’s skyline all but touches the clouds as the buildings overlook the water. With Liberty Island National Park and Jersey City surrounding the Statue of Liberty, there’s too much to do and see to spend time in your yard doing lawn chores.

LawnStarter knows how to maintain your lawn whether it's the hot, humid summer months, cold, snowy winter months, or any season in between. Our pros mow, edge, trim, and more to give you an appealing and healthy landscape.

Here’s what lawn care looks like in the Sixth Borough:

Best Grass Types for Jersey City

Cool-season grasses thrive in the Northeastern region of the state. Our pros recommend the following varieties:

  • Kentucky Bluegrass: This grass grows well in full sun or partial shade. It is popular in New Jersey because of its dense covering. However, it requires a lot of maintenance.
  • Fine Fescue: If you want a low-maintenance turf, this variety is an excellent choice. It performs well in shade and dry infertile environments but is not the best option for high foot traffic.
  • Tall Fescue: Another variety that does not need a lot of upkeep, it is heat and drought-tolerant.
  • Perennial Ryegrass: A turf type that performs well in a variety of soil conditions, it requires a well-drained environment.

How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn?: We recommend mowing at a height of 2.5 to 3.5 inches; this is achievable by mowing weekly during the summer. In the fall when the grass enters dormancy, stop mowing.

Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Jersey City

LawnStarter protects your lawn against problems that disrupt a consistent and lush appearance. Common lawn pests and diseases our experts manage include:

  • Sod Webworms: These pests feed on grass, turning your lawn brown.
  • White Grubs: You may have these insects if you see dead patches or beetles. Animals digging in your lawn are another indication.
  • Fungal Diseases: Humidity and snow-loving fungal infections cause discolored grass. Leaf spot, snow mold, and dollar spot are some of the most common invaders.

Other Outdoor Services We Offer

LawnStarter’s pros understand that a beautiful home consists of a well-kept lawn and other elements that create a striking landscape. Additional services we perform include:

  • Fertilization: Our pros feed your lawn the necessary nutrients it needs to remain healthy in all four seasons.
  • Landscape Installation: We can make your yard complete with privacy hedges, shrub borders, and specimen trees.
  • Tree and Shrub Care: Regular pruning and trimming services enhance the health of your trees and bushes and help them endure harsh conditions.

Whether you want to tour Chilltown on the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail trolley or walk along the Hudson River, LawnStarter’s pros will handle your landscaping chores so you can do something more fun and exciting.

Nicholas was professional and personable when we went outside to meet with him. He was on time and left our yard looking in tip top shape! He offered a few suggestions for maintenance and fertilizer and even marked our irrigation heads for the cable company to miss when they come to bury our line in a few days. Nicholas went above and beyond and I couldn't be more pleased with his services. I recommend him without any reservations.
