Easy, Affordable Lawn Care Services in St. Petersburg

St. Petersburg is well known for its warm, muggy climate, like most of Florida, even when winter is at its coldest. However, with considerable humidity, the typical summer high regularly reaches 90° F. As a result, warm-season grasses are the only varieties that will survive here.


Best Grass Types for St. Petersburg: St. Augustine grass, ryegrasses, and bahiagrass can handle the hot temps and considerable amount of summer rainfall.


Best Time to Plant Grass: The best time to seed warm-season grass in most parts of Florida is between April and July, permitting a full growing season before cold weather.


Spring Lawn Care Tips for St. Petersburg: Lawn maintenance in the spring is really not that difficult. The following four lawn care tips will help you get things started off right after you've removed any last-minute leaves or winter debris: Dethatch and aerate your lawn, conduct a soil test to see what nutrients it's missing, apply appropriate fertilizer, and use pre-emergent herbicide to keep any weeds from popping up.


Fall Lawn Care Tips for St. Petersburg: Here are 5 tips for lawn and landscape maintenance during St. Petersburg’s fall season: Mow less, start watering, loosen the soil, fertilize, and spread seed or lay sod.


Common Lawn Pests: Lawn pests such as chinch bugs, grubs, fall army worms, sod web worms, and fire ants are the most common culprits of lawn destroyers here.


Common Lawn Diseases: Brown patch fungus, dollar spot fungus, gray leaf spot, rust fungus, and fairy rings can spread quickly if you don't treat them right away. If you're not sure what's plaguing your lawn, give us a call.


How LawnStarter Can Keep Your Yard Looking Great: LawnStarter is more than just a lawn care provider. Do you need the leaves in your gutters, pool, or yard removed? Looking for a landscaper to spruce up your front yard? Thinking about adding a fence to your property? LawnStarter handles all this too.


Call us for a personalized, free estimate. Our qualified professionals are available to provide the lawn care services your yard needs.

 James is a great lawn care provider. He is a one person unit and I love that. I've asked him why he doesn't have a crew and his response was "I am old school". What he lacks in manpower, he more than makes it up with him experience. Super knowledgeable about St. Petersburg's lawn care needs. I don't plan on letting any other lawn care company touch my lawn for the forseeable future.

 After all the rain that happened ahead of this mow, I was not expecting them to come out. We certainly needed it, but with the terrible weather, we hadn't had an opportunity to tidy up the kids' toys. But Devonn came and did an AMAZING job! We were so pleased to come home to a nicely trimmed yard and we ran outside to play THAT DAY! Thank you, Devonn, for always delivering excellent service!
