Signs Your Lawn Could Benefit from Professional Lawn Care
Your lawn is a living thing — it needs water, air, sunlight, nutrients, and the proper conditions in order to remain healthy. However, achieving a lush, green lawn is easier said than done. If you notice any of these issues, it’s a sign that you should consider professional lawn maintenance services:
- Out-of-control weed growth
- Poor lawn color
- Thinning or patchy areas
- Compacted soil
- Excessive pests or insects
- Thatching or brown patches
Our Lawn Maintenance Services
At Elevated Lawn and Lightscapes, we know that every lawn has different needs. That’s why we offer a wide variety of lawn maintenance services, ensuring we’re prepared to give your lawn the specialized care it deserves.
Routine Lawn Mowing
Mowing your lawn can be a hassle. Let us take care of it instead! We’ll choose the proper mowing height based on the grass type, use a sharp blade for clean cuts, and alternate mowing patterns to prevent soil compaction. We’ll also edge along sidewalks, driveways, and flower beds and blow clippings off hard surfaces.
Fertilization
We develop customized fertilization plans based on the soil and turf type to ensure your grass has the nutrients it needs to develop strong roots and become more resilient. When needed, we can also use weed-and-feed treatments to get rid of unwanted invaders while nourishing your lawn.
Weed Control
Our weed control tactics are based on both treating weeds that have already emerged and preventing new ones from sprouting. We use safe and effective application practices to get rid of weeds without harming you or your lawn.
Aeration and Overseeding
Aeration is an excellent way to relieve soil compaction and improve your lawn’s oxygen, water, and nutrient absorption. Combined with overseeding, it can address thin or patchy spots, improve turf density, and encourage a lusher, greener lawn.
Lawn Dethatching
Thatch is a layer of living and dead roots, stems, and leaves between your grass and the soil. It makes it harder for water and nutrients to get down to the roots and can become home to all kinds of pests. Our dethatching services are designed to remove excess thatch and create a healthier environment for your lawn to grow in.
Irrigation Systems
We also install and maintain irrigation systems. From inspecting your sprinkler system to identifying leaks and inefficiencies to giving you advice for how to adjust your watering schedules based on the season, we can do it all.
- Consistent, healthy appearance
- Professional equipment and expertise

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should my lawn be mowed?
In Georgia, it’s typically best to mow your lawn once a week during the spring and summer. In the fall, growth slows down, which means you may only need to mow once every two weeks. In winter, grass doesn’t grow much (if at all), so you likely won’t need to mow at all during the colder months.
When developing lawn maintenance plans, we take into consideration factors such as the season, the species of grass, and its overall health to determine how often it needs to be mowed.
When is the best time to fertilize?
The best time to fertilize your lawn depends on what type of grass you have. If it’s a cool-season grass like Kentucky bluegrass or fescue, it’s typically ideal to fertilize it in the spring and fall. If you have warm-season grass like Bermuda, you should fertilize it in the late spring and continue through the summer.
If you’re not sure what type of grass you have and how to take care of it, give us a call, and we’d be happy to help.
Do I need lawn aeration every year?
The general rule of thumb is that your lawn should be aerated every year. However, depending on the type of grass and soil and the needs of your specific lawn, you may be able to go two or three years between aerations. If you’re not sure, feel free to reach out to us for expert advice.
