Choosing a lawn care package can feel overwhelming if you’re not sure what each tier actually includes. At Sharp Lawn Care, we keep it straightforward: three packages, each designed for a specific goal. Here’s what they include, who they’re for, and how to pick the right one for your lawn in Sioux Falls, SD.

Why Lawn Care Comes in Packages, Not One-Size-Fits-All

Every lawn is different. Some homeowners want a solid foundation of fertilization and weed control. Others want comprehensive insect protection and premium treatments. A one-size-fits-all approach would either leave some lawns under-treated or charge others for services they don’t need.

That’s why we offer three tiers. Each one builds on the last, adding more applications, more protection, and more value. All packages use commercial-grade products applied by trained, licensed technicians—and every package is backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee.

The Essentials Package: A Strong Foundation for Your Lawn in Sioux Falls, SD

Healthy green lawn treated with Sharp Lawn Care's Essentials fertilization package

5 applications per season

The Essentials package is built for homeowners who want a good, healthy lawn without the extras. It covers the core treatments that every lawn needs:

  • Crabgrass pre-emergent to stop weeds before they start
  • Stabilized fertilizer with micro-nutrients and iron for steady, even growth
  • Targeted broadleaf weed control throughout the season

Who this is for: Homeowners who want a solid lawn care foundation at the most affordable price point. If you’re looking for a “good lawn” without the frills, Essentials delivers.

The Plus Package: More Protection, Better Results

9 applications per season

The Plus package is our most popular option—and for good reason. It includes everything in Essentials, plus four additional treatments that take your lawn from good to great:

  • Everything in Essentials (pre-emergent, fertilizer, weed control)
  • Grub control — Extended protection against white grubs, which feed on grass roots and cause large brown patches
  • Two insecticide applications — Eco-friendly treatments that control 75+ species of lawn-damaging insects
  • Winterizer — A late-season application that strengthens roots and prepares your lawn for winter dormancy

Who this is for: Homeowners who want a great lawn with protection against insects and grubs. If you’ve noticed brown patches, thinning areas, or insect damage in the past, Plus addresses those problems head-on.

The Premium Package: The Full Treatment

12 applications per season

The Premium package is our most comprehensive option. It includes everything in Plus, with additional treatments for maximum coverage and convenience:

  • Everything in Plus (pre-emergent, fertilizer, weed control, grub control, insecticide, winterizer)
  • Three additional insecticide applications — Monthly treatments during peak season for complete insect annihilation, not just population control
  • Free spot spray — Complimentary targeted treatments for tough-to-kill weeds like crabgrass, spurge, clover, and ground ivy (normally an additional per-gallon charge)

Who this is for: Families with kids and pets who spend a lot of time on the lawn, or homeowners who want the best possible results with zero hassle. Premium is the “set it and forget it” option.

How to Choose the Right Package for Your Lawn

Here’s a simple way to think about it:

  • “I want a good lawn.” → Essentials — Core fertilization and weed control, 5 visits per season.
  • “I want a great lawn.” → Plus — Everything in Essentials plus grub control, insecticide, and a winterizer. 9 visits per season. Our most popular choice.
  • “I want the best lawn possible with zero hassle.” → Premium — Maximum insect coverage and free spot spray. 12 visits per season.
