What our customers say​

Ecolawn was the best call I made. And they’re local so you’re helping out folks in your area, not some national corporate yahoos. In just one year there was a major transformation in my lawn. I might be moving soon but if I stay in the area I will stay with these guys without question.

Jim – Mentor, OH

From the very first treatment I saw a big improvement! The guy that has cut my lawn for the past 20 years summed it up as he picked up the Ecolawn sign to show to his other clients, ‘These folks completely saved this lawn!!’ The first two years of this lawn were a DISASTER and finally I can relax and stop worrying and feeling ashamed of my lawn. Big ‘WHEW!’

Mark – Shaker Heights, OH

Very professional!!! Only my second application this year and my lawn is already looking a million times healthier and weed free!!!! Glad I called.

Eric – Painesville, OH

Do you have questions about our lawn care services?

What are the advantages of professional lawn care versus DIY solutions?
Professional lawn care companies understand the science of lawn health and the timing of treatments. While DIY approaches often lead to improper application (creating zebra stripes or potential environmental harm), professional care ensures consistency and proper technique. But Ecolawn goes beyond basic professional care—we bring nearly 50 years of expertise to every property. We understand soil biology, grass varieties, and proper treatment timing. We don’t just treat your lawn; we build a foundation for long-term health through deeper root systems. Our professionals analyze your specific conditions and goals, then create a personalized plan you simply can’t replicate with store-bought products.

Subscription-based services like Sunday send generic products without considering your lawn’s specific needs. These one-size-fits-all approaches typically lead to inconsistent results—patchy green areas mixed with weeds where applications missed.

Here’s what makes Ecolawn’s yard care different:

  • Personally assess your lawn’s unique conditions
  • Create customized treatment plans based on soil quality, grass type, and your goals
  • Apply treatments with calibrated professional equipment
  • Provide ongoing education about your lawn
  • Build relationships where we genuinely care about your results
  • Focus on creating healthy soil and deep root systems, not just surface treatments
  • Have licensed, educated professionals applying treatments, not seasonal workers

Our approach centers on building lawn health naturally. By including organics in our program, we develop thick, dense turf that becomes its own best defense against weeds, insects, disease, and drought. This means we can use fewer chemical interventions while achieving better results.

The insecticides we use include derivatives from chrysanthemum plants and ultra-low-dose products. We limit the use of harsher chemicals that other companies rely on heavily.

A healthy lawn also provides environmental benefits by absorbing pollutants, producing oxygen, preventing erosion, and creating cooler outdoor spaces. Our clients can typically use their lawn shortly after treatments are applied and dried.

Lawn care services vary widely in price depending on lawn size, condition, and the level of service provided. Basic services from national chains may start around $29 per treatment, but these often exclude many essential services that are then offered as upsells.

Ecolawn provides premium service with our comprehensive approach to lawn health, which includes organic nutrients and preventative treatments that many of our competitors charge extra for. While our investment is higher than basic services, our clients find tremendous value in having the healthiest, most beautiful lawn possible that continues to improve year after year.

Depending on the program you select, we provide either 5 or 6 fertilizer treatments per year, plus grub protection. Our platinum program, our most popular choice, includes 6 balanced fertilizer visits and liquid organic aeration for the most beautiful lawn on your block.

Our personalized lawn care plans include:

  • An initial evaluation to assess your lawn’s current condition
  • An interview to understand your previous experiences and goals for your property
  • A tailored recommendation to achieve your specific objectives
  • Ongoing communication and education
  • Guidance on proper mowing height, watering practices, and other care
  • Regular treatments customized to your lawn’s needs

The specific strategy depends on your goals and property conditions. For example, if you want the best-looking lawn on your street, we might recommend additional disease control. If your lawn gets heavy foot traffic from kids playing, we may suggest annual aerating and overseeding with durable grass varieties.

While we don’t typically perform full reseeding services, we can help in several ways:

  • If you have construction damage or need to repair areas, we can connect you with a reliable landscaping contractor in your area
  • For sections within your ability to handle, we can provide specific instructions on how to properly reseed
  • For aging lawns that need rejuvenation without full replacement, we offer mechanical aeration and overseeding services to introduce newer grass varieties that are more heat and drought-tolerant

For small bare patches (less than 6 inches in diameter), our regular lawn care program will often stimulate the existing grass to fill in these areas naturally.

Most of our treatments don’t require additional watering. However, the grub protection treatment is most effective when watered in within seven days of application. We schedule this treatment during seasons when natural rainfall is likely to occur within that period.

We’ll provide specific instructions after each treatment, including any necessary watering recommendations. Remember that a successful lawn requires partnership—we provide expert care, but your proper watering and mowing practices are equally important for optimal results.

Generally, bare areas less than 6 inches in diameter will fill in on their own as we improve the health of your lawn. Larger bare areas may require reseeding.

Bare patches can result from multiple factors, including:

  • Poor soil quality
  • Extreme heat without proper irrigation
  • Wrong grass varieties for your conditions
  • Grub damage
  • Heavy foot traffic
  • Excessive shade

Our approach focuses on fixing the underlying causes of bare patches by improving soil health and encouraging deeper root growth. When we restore the foundation of your lawn, the grass often fills in problem areas naturally without the need for reseeding.

The biggest challenge we see is improper mowing height. Many homeowners and even professional landscapers cut grass too short (around 2 inches) in an attempt to reduce mowing frequency. This creates vulnerability to weeds, drought damage, and other stresses.

We recommend a 4-inch mowing height, measured with a ruler from a flat surface to the bottom of the mower blade, including at the edges. This taller grass develops deeper roots that better survive Northeast Ohio’s hot, humid summers.

Other local challenges include:

  • Clay soils that benefit greatly from aeration
  • Older lawns with outdated grass varieties that aren’t as heat or disease-resistant
  • Expanding tree canopies that create excessive shade
  • Increasingly hot and humid summers that stress cool-season grasses
  • Competition from tree roots in the top 3-4 inches of soil

Through proper care practices and our comprehensive approach, we help your lawn thrive despite these regional challenges.
