Easy, Affordable Lawn Care Services in Louisville

The Ohio Valley experiences hot and muggy summers with cold and wet winters. Taking care of your grass in Louisville can be a challenge with the drastic changes in temperature throughout the year. If you need a hand in keeping your lawn looking lush, LawnStarter is here for you. Our pros will handle the routine maintenance as well as any additional treatments, like aeration, fertilization, seeding, and dethatching.

Most Common Grass Types in Louisville: Since Louisville lies in the transition zone, cool-season grasses will be the best choice for lawns here. Kentucky bluegrass, tall fescue, Zoysiagrass, and perennial ryegrass will stay green most of the year but go dormant when the temperatures are extremely hot and cold.

Spring Lawn Care Tips in Louisville: Your lawn's nutrients may be depleted from the cold winter, so testing your soil once the ground has thawed is a good idea. This will let you know the pH, nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorous levels. Next, aerate and dethatch your lawn. Loosening the soil and getting rid of the thick, dead undergrowth allows the soil to get the sun, water, and air it needs to grow. Apply a pre-emergent weed control to stop crabgrass and other weeds from cropping up in the summer, and finally, fertilize or overseed any bare spots.

Fall Lawn Care Tips for Louisville: Test your soil again to check its levels and add fertilizer according to your grass type's specific needs. Continue watering and mowing the grass throughout the fall, but don't cut it too short. Never cut more than one-third of your grass's height at once. Keep your lawn cleared of leaves so it can continue to receive the air and sun it needs.

How LawnStarter Can Keep Your Yard Looking Great: Aside from routine lawn maintenance, we'll identify and treat lawn pests and diseases. We offer lawn clean-ups, leaf removal, gardening services, and landscaping too.

Other Outdoor Services We Offer: LawnStarter's pros do more than just lawns. If you need your gutters cleaned or your driveway powerwashed, we'll handle it. We also install and repair fences, create hardscapes like patios, walkways, and fire pits, and trim trees and bushes.

LawnStarter makes having a gorgeous lawn easy. All you have to do is click, call, or download our app. We provide instant custom quotes and can have a pro at your door in just a few days.

I have more than 20 years of experience, in mowing and landscaping for companies and myself. I only use a 30-inch push mower so that I don't have to pull a trailer. Also, it doesn't form ruts in your yard, or bare spots from turning around like a zero-turn rider may, especially if it's a wet yard.

This is my 2nd year running my own business and after the great season I had last year, I'm sure this year will be even better! I am a one-man operation which means I have limited room for clients and a more personal relationship with my customers. No 1-800 numbers or customer service lines here, just me! So when you call Pettit Lawn Care you'll be talking directly to the one who will be performing the task! I look forward to meeting new clients this year and growing my business to full capacity!
