New Lawn Establishment
Starting a new lawn? Whether you’ve just laid sod or spread seed, your turf needs more than water to succeed. Our New Lawn Establishment Program is designed specifically for young or newly installed lawns to help build deep roots, prevent early weed competition, and guide your grass into full maturity with lasting strength.
Gentle, Full-Season Care for Newly Seeded or Sodded Lawns
Why New Lawns Need a Different Program
New turf is delicate. Over-fertilizing or applying aggressive weed treatments too early can stress the young grass and set it back. This program offers the right balance of nutrients, hydration support, and light weed control — all while avoiding anything too harsh for new growth.
We time each application carefully around turf development milestones so your lawn stays protected and productive from Day 1.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: “Can I mow during this program?”
A: Yes! Once your new lawn reaches about 5-6 inches tall, you can mow — but keep blades sharp and don’t remove more than 1/3 of the height at once.
Q: “Will You Apply Weed Control?”
A: Only when it’s safe for your turf. We avoid weed spraying during early development.
A: Both! We adjust timing and product strength depending on whether your lawn is seeded or sodded.
Q: “Is this for sod or seed?”
Our New Lawn Establishment Program is flexible and can begin as soon as you install your new sod or seed. The sooner you begin, the better your lawn can recover, root in, and resist stressors.
When Should You Start?
Pro Tip!
The first 90 days are the most critical in a new lawn’s life — don’t let weeds, drought, or neglect undo your investment.
