Thicken your Lawn!

Lawn seeding is an important part of achieving a beautiful lawn. Having new grass planted in your lawn provides many benefits. Your lawn will look better by having a full and thick lawn. Additionally it will also prevent weed growth by fighting out new weeds from appearing. Having a thick lawn plays an important role in achieving and preventing weed growth.

Options available to seed yards

If you wish to thicken the lawn regularly overtime we would use core aeration process. Then a broadcast seeder to spread seed on the lawn. Our crews will use a core aeration machine to pull small core of dirt from the lawn, this helps to de-compact the soil which in turn will better help the grass roots make better use of water and nutrients. Then using a broadcast seeder we would spread seed on to the lawn those seeds would germinate within the holes applied by the core aerator.

Slit seeding is one of our most effective methods

Slit seeding uses a machine that cuts lines in to the yard and drops seeds within those grooves. It is the most effective option because of the higher seed to soil ratio which provides a better germination rate.

Professional Sod Installation

Sod is great for covering large areas or bare spots in the lawn. Our service reps are trained how to properly install sod. If your lawn has large patches of area that is not covered in grass, or if over 50% of the grass is covered with weeds it may be best to consider having sod installed.

Proper installation is key!

Sod that is not properly installed will become brittle and burn out. Additionally if it is not applied correctly it may never take root which eventually will also lead to it dying out due to it not receiving proper water and nutrients. One Source Toledo crews will prepare the soil. Take soil test to determine if the proper nutrients are in the soil, as well as properly fertilize and water the sod after sod installation.

Spring Cleanup: Let us to the dirty work.

With harsh winters here up north, it’s still always important to get a good clean up the yard and to prepare it for spring growth. Each spring, One Source Toledo will remove all possible winter-kill, dead branches, and old annuals from Northwest Ohio homes and businesses. Also involved in a spring clean up is aeration, over seeding, power washing, and trimming hedges. A thorough spring clean up is important to prepare the yard for the best growing conditions while minimizing the exposure to fungus and disease.

During a spring clean up it is important to locate trees and shrubs near roadways. Every spring, One Source Toledo recommends removing 3 inches of earth around trees and shrubs near roadways and replacing with fresh top soil and nutrients. It is common that road debris and chemicals can find its way into root systems destroying the tree or shrub. Fresh top soil and nutrients are key to restoring the health of these plants.

Fall Cleanup: Leaf removal and more!

Fall cleanup on your lawn is extremely important for maintaining a beautiful lawn. When leaves are not removed they become matted on the turf causing the grass roots to weaken which prevents the grass from growing as rapidly the following season.

Our crews will blow leaves and debris from all areas of the property, between bushes, under garages, along fence lines, etc with commercial blowers. If customer requests complete removal, our crews will then disperse the leaves into the back of one of our trucks for removal. Smaller projects we may simply load them into a trailer. Due to the nature of this service, we charge hourly. There is a one hour minimum charge for this service.

Whats Included?

This service is usually performed in the October and November months when most of the leaves have fallen. We try to schedule all cleanups according to the municipality leaf schedules. Follow up services may be necessary if further leaves fall onto the lawn.
