When you retain Collins Lawn and Maintenance , we adjust the rate of applications of fertilizers and herbicides, constantly making adjustments to meet different lawn requirements.

Core Aeration and Dethatching
Program
Core Aeration is actually a way of cultivating your lawn by removing "plugs" of soil and leaving behind small perforations in the earth. These plugs are left on the surface. The Dethatcher breaks down the plugs, thereby creating a top-dressing for the lawn with organic matter which allows for root and new shoot development.
Advantages of Core Aeration Increases water and air movement in the soil
• Relieves soil compaction and allows products to reach the root zone
• Helps prevent thatch buildup performed in conjunction with overseeding
• Increases turf development
Aeration is ideal for all homeowners regardless of the condition of your present lawn. This is a fast and easy way to produce a healthy lawn by attacking cultural problems such as soil compaction and thatch accumulation.
Over seeding is preferred with this option. Continuing with the annual treatments is always recommended for producing the best long range results.
Fertilization after core aeration is available upon request for an additional charge.
All debris is removed from the property.
This service is only offered in the Spring.
Initial Clean Up/One Time Cleanups and Yard Debris Hauling:
This service is a one time property clean up for the season, events, parties, family gatherings, pine needle/pine cone and yard debris removal.
One time cleanups vary depending on your needs, but generally remove all debris from the grounds, trimming, edging, mowing.
