Three Insider Tips For Your Plainfield Yard

We live here, coach Little League here, and take pride in making our community beautiful. We understand the challenges the local lawns face through all four seasons. So, we've developed maintenance programs specifically for our area.

Here are some tips to keep yours in good shape:

 
• 1) The Right Way To Deal with Caly Heavy Soil

Plainfield's notorious clay soil needs special attention. Add a quarter-inch layer of compost to your lawn each spring to gradually improve soil structure. Your grass will thank you with stronger roots and better drought resistance.

• 2) Fertilization Tips

Timing is everything. To get the best results, you should start before the year even begins, essentially in the fall to develop stronger root systems during winter dormancy. If you missed the window for this year, we recommend starting a fertilizing program asap. Use a good balanced NPK for your grass type following a slow-release granular application program throughout the year.

• 3) Grub Prevention

Grubs devastate many lawns each year. Apply preventative treatments between April and June. This specific window targets the egg-laying cycle of grubs that are common in our area.

FAQs: What Plainfield Homeowners Owners Need To Know

1) Why does my lawn develop brown patches despite regular watering?

Brown patches, especially during the summer heat, indicate either fungal disease or improper watering practices. Watering 1 to 2 times weekly works better than daily shallow watering. For established lawns, aim for 1-1.5 inches of water weekly. Do it in the early morning hours to minimize evaporation and fungal growth. If patches continue despite watering, your grass may benefit from our fungal treatment service.

2) When is the best time to overseed?

The best time would be late summer to early fall. The timing lets seeds establish while temperatures remain mild and weed competition decreases.

3) How can I prevent crabgrass from taking over my yard?

Apply pre-emergent herbicide in early spring when soil temperatures reach 55 degrees. More important, maintain your lawn at 3-3.5 inches tall during summer months. This height creates shade that suppresses some weed germination.

At R&A Services, we understand the challenges Plainfield property owners face: limited free time, persistent weeds, and the constant battle to maintain a healthy lawn in Illinois' changing seasons. Our crew offers help that frees your weekends while keeping your property looking good.

Weeds Don't Stand A Chance

When weeds thrive your grass struggles. There's a reason for that:

 
• Weeds are opportunists that exploit weaknesses in your lawn
• They establish faster and grab nutrients your grass needs
• Most spread aggressively once they get a foothold
 

Plus, they show up all over. Driveways. Walkways. Sidewalk. They're pesky and annoying.

We hit weeds where it hurts. We block them before they sprout in spring, tackle established invaders without harming your grass, and sometimes just roll up our sleeves and pull them out by hand.

With our help, you won't need to worry about them anymore.

Feeding Your Lawn What It Needs

Think of fertilizer as your lawn's custom nutrition plan. But timing matters as much as ingredients:

 
• We match nutrients to what your specific grass type needs
• Our applications sync with seasonal patterns
• We focus on building root strength
• The right food means your grass outcompetes weeds naturally
• A well-fed lawn needs less water and bounces back faster from stress
 

When we feed your lawn, we're building its immune system against everything Illinois throws at it.

There's Mowing And Then There's Mowing The Right Way

Cutting grass seems simple enough, but there's an art to it that makes all the difference:

 
• We adjust cutting height based on the season and conditions
• Our patterns change regularly to encourage even growth
• We never rush. Each property gets the right amount of attention
• We use sharp and well-maintained blades to make clean cuts that heal quickly
 

Our cutting practices are about setting your grass up to thrive between our visits.
