Road Map to a Sharp Lawn

Lawn Road Map: Step One

Aeration is the First Step

Aeration removes soil cores that can prevent sunlight, water, and nutrients from penetrating the root structure. It promotes lush, healthy grass that’s a great defense against weeds and insect pests. This should be repeated every spring and fall. Learn more about aeration.

Lawn Road Map: Step Two

Fertilization & Weed Control Strengthen Your Lawn

Throughout the season, fertilization and weed control strengthens your grass and kills weeds, which opens the area for more grass to grow once planted in the fall. This should be repeated every season — more on fertilization and weed control.

Lawn Road Map: Step Three

Overseeding Promotes New Growth

In fall, weeds are under control, pests are mostly gone, and conditions are ideal for new growth. That makes it the perfect time for overseeding — getting great new growth ahead of winter so you’re ready to go the next spring. This should be done every fall until thick, then every 3–5 years as needed. Get the full story on fall seeding.

Lawn Road Map: Step Four

Keep Your Grass at the Proper Height

Keeping your grass at the proper height for the season has two benefits: it provides shade for the roots during the hotter months and reduces other stresses that can cause damage. During spring and fall, keep it at 3 ½ to 4 inches; go up to 4 ½ inches during the summer. Regardless of length, never cut more than 40% off at once. How to do mowing right.

Lawn Road Map: Step Five

The Right Amount of Water

Adequately water, but don’t overwater. Water 2 or 3 days each week, with an inch per week being the average in spring and fall and up to 2 inches when it gets hotter in the summer. Save water and money by watering early in the morning before evaporation kicks in — more watering tips here.

Lawn Road Map: Step Six

Enjoy Your Sharp Lawn!

This road map to a Sharp Lawn is a formula we’ve developed and refined for nearly two decades. Working together with you, we’ll follow this plan and you’ll see a Sharp lawn in just 1–2 seasons. Better yet, we’ll keep it that way.

Lawn Fertilization

Every program starts with our fertilization system — timed stabilized-release feedings that build strong turf without wasteful nutrient loss. Homeowners in Sioux Falls, SD get a treatment schedule calibrated for the Sioux Empire’s growing season, while our Sioux City, IA customers get timing tuned to Siouxland soils and microclimate.

Pre-emergent weed control is paired with the early-spring feeding — one visit, double the impact. By mid-summer, your lawn is thicker, greener, and crowding out the weeds that plagued it the year before.

Weed Control

Our weed control pairs pre-emergent barriers (to stop weeds before they sprout) with post-emergent spot treatments (to clean up anything that slips through). The combination is why we can guarantee your results — and why our customers in Sioux Falls, SD and Sioux City, IA see fewer dandelions, crabgrass, and clover each season.

Premium-program customers also get free spot-spray visits between scheduled treatments — so if you spot a weed, we come handle it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between the Essentials, Plus, and Premium programs?
Essentials covers 5 visits with fertilizer and weed control — a solid foundation. Plus adds grub control, summer insect control, and a mid-fall winterizer across 7 visits (9 total treatments). Premium expands insect coverage and adds free spot-spray weed treatments across 8 visits (12 total treatments). Each step up adds more of what your lawn needs, not a tier markup on the same treatments.
How do you decide which program is right for my lawn?
We recommend a program based on your lawn’s current condition, your goals (good lawn vs. great lawn), and whether insect or grub pressure is a concern in your neighborhood. When you request a quote, we factor in your property size and match you to the right tier.
How many visits will I get?
Essentials is 5 visits per year. Plus is 7 visits with 9 total treatments (some visits bundle a fertilization and an insect treatment on the same day). Premium is 8 visits with 12 total treatments during peak season.
Do I sign a long-term contract?
No long-term contract. You can adjust your program or cancel at any time. Our goal is to earn your business every visit.
What’s the Sharp Lawn Care guarantee?
100% loophole-free satisfaction guarantee. If you’re not happy, we come back and fix it. If we can’t make it right, we’ll pay a competitor to finish the job.
