Cost of Lawn Fertilization in Washington, DC

On average, lawn fertilization in Washington, DC, falls on the higher end of the national range. Lawn fertilization costs between $103 and $343 nationally.

What are the factors affecting the cost of fertilization?

Size of your yard (a larger yard will cost more)
Overwatering (the more you water your lawn, the more fertilizer it will need)
Bundling other lawn care services with fertilization (which lowers the cost)
Type of lawn fertilizer (granular, liquid, slow-release, etc.)

When Is the Best Time to Fertilize Your Lawn?

Fertilizer should be applied when grass is actively growing. If you’re growing a cool-season lawn, fertilize in the fall, as the summer heat stresses the grass and drains nutrients. For warm-season grasses, fertilize in mid-spring through summer after it finishes greening.

Lawn Fertilization: DIY or Hire a Pro?

You can always DIY fertilization, or you can hire a lawn care pro to keep your grass green and healthy.

DIY can save you money (and get you a good workout), but it requires buying fertilizer and a spreader. It also requires performing some math to get the mix correct.

On the other hand, hiring a lawn care pro might be more expensive, but they are skilled and experienced to fertilize your lawn correctly the first time — and with better products.
