Lawn Care in Rapid City

Known as the gateway to Mt. Rushmore, Rapid City’s semi-arid climate does not give way to easy plant growth. It’s difficult to maintain a good lawn with significant temperature variations, going from dry and hot summers to below-freezing-point winters. 

In these circumstances, you need a professional’s help, and LawnStarter offers just that. From simple mows to elaborate treatments, our pros will do it all. 

Here are some things to know about lawn care in Rapid City:

Grass Type Matters

Figuring out the best grass for your South Dakota lawn is tricky. Here are the most popular types in Rapid City:

  • Kentucky bluegrass: It develops a thick grass carpet and withstands foot traffic but has high fertilization needs. Mow it between 2.5 and 3.5 inches.
  • Perennial ryegrass: This slow-growing grass won’t need much mowing and fertilizing. It will need supplemental watering during dry months. Mow it between 1.5 and 2.5 inches.
  • Fine fescue: It has low mowing and fertilization needs and likes to be mowed between 2.5 and 4 inches.
  • Bermudagrass: Sun-loving and resilient, it has a fast growth rate and needs frequent mowing. Fertilize regularly and mow it between 1.5 and 2.5 inches.
  • Buffalograss: Its high drought tolerance is perfect for the arid South Dakota climate, and it has low mowing and fertilizer requirements. Mow it between 2 and 3 inches.

Other Services We Offer

LawnStarter offers a wide range of services in Rapid City. They include:

  • Aeration: Relieve compacted soil so your grass can better absorb water, nutrients, and air.
  • Fertilization: Keep your grass nourished, dense, and green.
  • Outdoor landscaping: Our experts will bring your dream outdoor hangout space to life.
  • Tree and bush trimming: Keep your trees and bushes healthy, tidy, and in perfect shape to complement the grass.
  • Pressure washing: Keep your sidewalks and driveways neat with regular washes.

No matter where you are in Rapid City, our pros are at your service. Simply call, click, or use the LawnStarter app to get your free quote today. Let us take over, and take a day trip to the nearby Spearfish Canyon for some fun time, away from lawn mowers.

"Very good job on the front yard and driveway. The back was done as well - but via LawnStarter I had only wanted the front cleaned up at this point. Probably miscommunication on their part. However, since it was done; the marks down would be things like: "non-lawn" related stuff not put back where they belong, fire-pit kindling taken, lounge area blown over with debris. The 'lawn & patio' look great - but the fodder around it and the absconding of the kindling pile were unnecessary."
