Services
Core Aeration
Core Aeration alleviates soil compaction caused by mowing equipment, allowing air, water, and nutrients to reach grass roots. Our Estate Program includes annual aeration to promote deeper root growth, resulting in healthier, drought-resistant lawns. This service is essential for maintaining turf vitality in high-traffic areas.
Lawn Fertilization
Our granular fertilizer programs provide slow-release nutrients tailored to seasonal needs. The Premier Program includes five treatments annually, combining crabgrass prevention, weed control, and iron-rich formulations to maintain consistent green color without chemical burn risks associated with liquid alternatives.
Pest Control
Pro-Care's integrated pest management targets grubs, chinch bugs, and surface insects using low-toxicity treatments. Our season-long protection includes free retreatments for breakthrough infestations and 30-45 days of flea/tick control, ensuring lawns remain pest-free without harming beneficial insects.
Tree & Shrub Programs
Customized six-treatment plans protect ornamental plants from pests and diseases. Our certified arborist designs interventions for scale, spider mites, and fungal infections while addressing micronutrient deficiencies. Treatments include dormant oil applications and targeted miticides to preserve landscape investments.
Perimeter Pest Control
This exterior treatment creates an invisible insect barrier around foundations to prevent indoor infestations. Applied by licensed technicians, it targets ants, spiders, and overwintering pests without requiring homeowner presence, combining structural protection with environmentally responsible pest management.

My grass looked really bad the worst in 30+ years. The product they use brought it back and it looks better than it has in 10 years. I have them treat my ash tree to prevent Emerald Ash Borers, I have the only Ash tree for miles.
