Easy, Affordable Lawn Care Services in Newton

Newton is a beautiful city known for its rich history and natural beauty. The climate here can be challenging for lawn care though, as it requires a lot of maintenance and attention to keep the lawn looking lush and green. But don't worry. LawnStarter is here to help.

How LawnStarter Can Take Care of Your Lawn: Our services include mowing, trimming, edging, and other essential lawn care services.

Popular Grass Types: Centipedegrass is the preferred choice of grass type in the city of Newton. This warm-season grass is known for its drought tolerance and low maintenance requirements, making it a favorite among homeowners who want a low-maintenance lawn.

Best Time to Plant Grass: Spring and fall have the ideal conditions for grass seeds to germinate.

Spring Lawn Care Tips: Prepare your lawn for the hot summer months by aerating, fertilizing, mowing, and applying a pre-emergent herbicide.

Fall Lawn Care Tips: You should rake and remove leaves to prevent the grass from suffocating. It’s also best to fertilize your lawn one last time before winter to give it the nutrients it needs to grow strong in the spring.


Common Lawn Pests and Diseases: Grubs, chinch bugs, red thread, and dollar spot can cause significant damage to your lawn if not treated promptly.


Other Services We Offer: LawnStarter offers more than just lawn care services. We also provide power washing, tree trimming, landscaping, and other outdoor maintenance services.
