Long Beach, NY lawn care service at the click of a button

Sandwiched between the ocean and the bay, Long Beach offers picturesque views and places to shop, eat, and party the night away. You can stroll along the two-mile-long boardwalk or even hop over to Jones Beach for a concert. There’s plenty to do, but yard work might be getting in the way.

With LawnStarter, it doesn’t have to be that way. Our pros understand the challenges of keeping a lawn beautiful in this climate, with its warm, humid summers, cold, windy winters and sandy beachfront soils.

Here’s what lawn care looks like in Long Beach:

Best Grass Types for Long Beach

Variable weather and temperatures that drop below freezing mean cool-season grasses grow best in Nassau County. Varieties that thrive here include:

• Kentucky Bluegrass: A soft grass that self-repairs when damaged. It is high-maintenance, but when given sufficient care, it produces a dense, green lawn. 
• Perennial Ryegrass: This variety performs well in high-traffic areas, but it is vulnerable to diseases in high-moisture environments. Ryegrass germinates quickly and retains its color in the winter. 
• Tall Fescue: This species recovers slowly from wear and tear. However, it is low-maintenance and adapts to multiple soil types.

How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? Our experts recommend mowing weekly in the spring and fall. Mowing is only required every two weeks in the summer when cool-season grasses enter dormancy.

Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Long Beach

LawnStarter pros provide prevention and elimination services to protect your lawn from pests and diseases, such as:

• Grubs: Pests that damage the grass by feeding on grass roots. Grass becomes thin, wilts, and forms yellow patches. 
• Chinch Bugs: These pests also feed on grass, causing it to form yellow patches that turn brown. 
• Fungal Infections: Humidity-prone fungal diseases like brown patch and snow mold cause grass discoloration and may even cause allergic reactions.
