Franklin, TN lawn care service at the click of a button

Whether you live in a historic home or in one of Nashville’s established neighborhoods, lawn care is a year round concern for most of us in Franklin. LawnStarter Pros are here to help

Our Lawn Care Services: In the Franklin area we offer mowing, trimming, edging, and lawn fertilization, application of spring and summer pre-emergent herbicides, and even leaf removal. You also may need more specialized services like tree or stump removal, and, in any case, LawnStarter has you covered.

Like most Franklin residents you probably spend weekends caring for your lawn and landscaping. In this part of Tennessee we all know that weeds never really take a break because of our mild winters.

Here's what you need to know about lawn care in one of the best small towns in America

Mowing Season: The mowing season usually starts around late March or early April. Most lawns in this region require a weekly mow with some low maintenance lawns needing a mow every two weeks at the minimum. Lawn mowing season usually ends in late October or early November.

Best Grass Types: You can’t go wrong with Tall, or Fine Fescue for your lawn. Kentucky Bluegrass is also a popular choice in our area. All of these grass types have a longer growing season and don’t really become dormant until the temperature has reached a cool 50 degrees for several days. Those of us that have a lawn that is high traffic understand the need for a grass type that is extremely low maintenance, installing Bermudagrass, centipedegrass, or Zoysiagrass are great choices for us.

If you are unsure of the type of grass you have or want to maintain your lawn all year long contact one of our pros.

Common Lawn Pests: It can be frustrating when areas in your lawn are turning yellow or brown despite sticking to a watering schedule. Our area has several types of pest that can cause areas of dead grass or brown patches. These are the common pests to watch out for in our area:

Chinch Bugs - These pests are hard to see, but they feed off of the warm liquid in blades of grass causing your grass to yellow

Lawn Grubs - Lay eggs in the summer and the larvae eat the grass roots causing the grass to die in those areas of your lawn

Common Lawn Diseases: You may think that one area in your yard that never gets green or doesn’t grow the same as other areas is due to sun exposure, or lack of water. However, it could be lawn disease. Here are the most common lawn diseases that plague lawns in Franklin and the surrounding area:

Brown Patch Disease - This lawn disease is caused by a fast spreading fungus. The disease can look like circular areas of dead and brown grass that continues to take over areas of the lawn

Fairy Rings - While a fairy ring sounds like it would be magical it’s really a form of fungus that can destroy large parts of your lawn or produce large amounts of lawn mushroom growth

Dollar Spot - These little brown spots can appear in your lawn in early summer. These little spots may start out small but grow to form larger areas of dead grass.

If you are experiencing any of these challenges in your lawn contact one of our expert pros to diagnose your particular lawn challenge.
