Charlotte lawn care and landscaping, done by the same crew every week.
Weekly mowing on a flat monthly price, a lawn program timed to our clay and our grass, and the landscaping to go with it. Licensed in both Carolinas, and we print the numbers.
What we do, and what it starts at
Four we book most. Four more for the projects that make a yard rather than maintain one.
Weekly mow, edge, trim and blow, on a flat monthly price. The same crew, the same day, all season.
A six-step program timed to Charlotte's seasons, licensed applicators, and pre-emergent before the crabgrass, not after.
Core aeration and seed at the one time of year fescue will actually take. The most important six weeks in a Charlotte lawn's year.
Foundation beds, front-yard makeovers and full plans. Plants chosen for your light, your soil and how much you actually want to garden.
Weekly lawn care on a flat monthly price. Published, not hidden.
Half the companies in Charlotte name a maintenance plan. None of them will tell you what it costs until someone has walked your yard. These are our tiers for a lot up to a quarter acre; bigger lots get walked and quoted, and we tell you what moves the number.

Built for red clay and two kinds of grass
Charlotte sits in the transition zone, on soil that holds water and compacts hard. A lawn company that does not lead with those two facts is guessing.
Cecil red clay under most of Mecklenburg County swells wet, shrinks dry, and sheds water instead of drinking it. We fix where the water goes before we talk about seed, and we aerate every fescue lawn every fall because the soil closes back up every summer.
Cool-season fescue and warm-season Bermuda grow on the same street here and want opposite things at opposite times of year. We check which one you have on the walk-through, and we run two schedules on a lot that has both.
The canopy in the older neighborhoods means shade fescue, root competition and a leaf season that outlasts the calendar. Our fall cleanup is two visits for that reason, and we will tell you when a shady corner should stop being a lawn.
How it works
The form takes a minute. We reply the same business day, usually within the hour.
Free. We check the grass, the shade and where the water goes, and give you a real number on the spot.
Same crew, same day each week. Month to month, no contract, and we text before we arrive.
Same spot, before and after
Every one of these is the same yard from the same place we stood the first time. Nobody else in Charlotte shows you that, which is exactly why we do.

What your yard needs this fall
Fescue lawns are made or lost between mid-September and the end of October. Here is the short version; the full twelve months are on the calendar page.
Fescue: The most important month. Core aerate and overseed from mid-month. Big fall feed.
Bermuda & Zoysia: Stop feeding. Raise the cut a little as growth slows.
Fescue: Finish seeding by mid-month. Water the seed daily. First leaves.
Bermuda & Zoysia: Winterizer feed with potassium, no nitrogen.
Fescue: Winterizer feed. First fall cleanup; keep leaves off the new seed.
Bermuda & Zoysia: Going dormant. Final mow a touch higher.

Questions, answered
How much does lawn care cost in Charlotte?
The Loblolly Lawn Plan starts at $175 a month for weekly mowing, edging and trimming on a lot up to a quarter acre, billed flat across the year. Plus, which adds beds, shrubs and cleanups, starts at $265, and Complete, which adds the fertilization program and fall aeration, at $345. Bigger lots are walked and quoted. Nobody else in Charlotte prints these numbers; we think you should be able to see them before you call.
Do you know what kind of grass I have?
We will after the walk-through, and it is the first thing we check. Charlotte grows cool-season fescue and warm-season Bermuda and Zoysia in the same neighborhoods, and they want opposite things at opposite times of year. Most of the tired lawns we see were being treated as the wrong grass.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes, and we print the numbers: North Carolina Landscape Contractor #2418 and North Carolina Pesticide Applicator #027-11342, plus South Carolina applicator credentials for Fort Mill and Tega Cay. General liability and workers' comp are current and we will send you the certificate.
Will it be the same crew every week?
Yes. Routes are built by neighborhood, so the same two or three people are on your street every week. They notice when something changes, which is how a problem gets caught in June instead of August.
Do I have to sign a contract?
No. The Lawn Plan is month to month. Give us thirty days if you want to stop, and we will finish the month properly rather than disappearing.
Where do you work?
Charlotte and the towns around it: Matthews, Mint Hill, Huntersville and Waxhaw in North Carolina, and Fort Mill, Tega Cay and Indian Land across the line in South Carolina. If you are within about twenty-five minutes of SouthPark we are almost certainly there.
