LAWN SEEDING AND SOD
To replace your grass or repair dead spots in your lawn, there are two main options: laying new sod or seeding. Each approach has pros and cons. We are here to help and can advise you on the best solution for your property.
When it comes to the cost, overseeding is usually more budget-friendly. However, if you want a quick lawn, sod is the way to go. This is because growing a lawn from seed takes much longer.
SEEDING
During our overseeding service, we add new grass seed to your existing lawn to thicken the current turf. Lawns that are starting to thin and have been affected over time by lawn disease will benefit from overseeding.
We follow a basic overseeding process for our residential customers. We use a handheld or broadcast spreader to lay the seed across your lawn as evenly as possible. After seeding, we advise customers to keep their lawns hydrated to establish healthy roots. Once roots are established and the grass starts growing, you can resume regular lawn mowing and maintenance routines.
SOD
For lawns with large dead spots, or for homeowners wanting to lay a brand-new lawn, sod is the way to go! Sod comes in large rolls that can be cut to fit. Our company has years of experience in laying sod and will be able to complete the job efficiently. Sod installation is the best route for encouraging quick root growth, minimizing weeds and helping fight soil erosion.
If you think your lawn could benefit from our sod or seeding services, give us a call at 703-909-2085. We’ll meet you at your property to assess the current conditions of your grass and recommend the best approach to create a thicker, greener and healthier lawn.
LEAF REMOVAL
Autumn can be a beautiful time of year in Northern Virginia. The leaves start to change color and give an orange-red glow to our neighborhoods. But before you know it, the leaves begin to drop, creating a blanket over your lawn, which prohibits sunlight and nutrients from reaching your grass.
For residential homes in Arlington, Falls Church and McLean, professional leaf removal is a simple solution.
Leaf cover hinders your grass’s growth, especially during the fall. When the season gets cooler, grass uses photosynthesis to store nutrients deep in the root system to be used for spring growth. If leaves sit on top of your lawn for too long and create a barrier, the grass can’t go through the process of converting sunlight to nutrients.
Leaves also can create other problems, including:
- Lawn fungus, mold, or disease caused by reduced water evaporation.
- Mosquito infestation due to wet, decomposing leaves.
Healthy lawns can be wiped out in only a year or two by matted leaves blocking sunlight. Professional leaf removal services help your lawn thrive during the fall by allowing it to get the correct amount of sunlight and moisture. Leaf removal services will help your grass stay healthy.
At Sullivan Lawn Maintenance, we are efficient in our leaf removal services. We bring our rakes and leaf blowers to round up your leaves. We can place them on the street for pick up or bag them in brown paper bags if you prefer.
If you live in Arlington, Falls Church or McLean, give us a call at 703-909-2085. Let us get those leaves off your property before they cause harm to your healthy lawn.
GUTTER CLEANING
Gutters are an integral part of your home’s well-being. They help control the flow of rainwater to protect your roof, walls, foundation and landscaping. A clogged gutter can cause a leaky roof or water damage to the interior or exterior of your house.
At Sullivan Lawn Maintenance, we efficiently clean your gutters, removing the leaves, twigs and debris that may clog them. We then bag the waste and flush the entire system to make sure it’s functioning smoothly. If you live in Arlington, Falls Church or McLean and need help with gutter cleaning, give us a call at 703-909-2085.
