Professional Lawn Care Services in Burlington

DIY solutions for your Burlington lawn can be tempting. A quick online search for DIY weed control often leads to vinegar mixtures, dish soap concoctions, and plenty of hopeful experimentation. The problem? Most home remedies damage your grass long before they eliminate a single weed. Brown patches, stressed turf, and persistent weeds are common results, leaving homeowners frustrated and searching for a better solution.

That’s where professional lawn care in Burlington makes all the difference. Expert weed control services use regulated, effective products like Fiesta weed killer, applied with proper timing and technique to protect healthy grass while targeting problem weeds. By combining preventive care, seasonal fertilization, and tailored treatments, Burlington homeowners can enjoy a thicker, greener, and more resilient lawn all year round.

Comprehensive Lawn Care Services in Burlington

Since Dr. Green began serving Burlington in 1985, our full-service lawn care programs have been designed to work in harmony with the environment, not against it. Every treatment—from fertilization to aeration—builds on the last, creating a stronger, healthier, and more resilient lawn over time. This integrated approach ensures your Burlington turf withstands seasonal stress, resists weeds, and grows thicker, greener, and more vibrant throughout the year.

Our Professional Lawn Care Services Include:

  • Seasonal Fertilization Programs: Proper lawn fertilization in Burlington provides essential nutrients to support healthy growth all season long. Spring treatments encourage root development, summer applications help turf handle heat stress, and fall fertilization strengthens roots for winter. Understanding how often to fertilize your lawn and when to apply spring treatments ensures your Burlington lawn achieves maximum growth, colour, and resilience.
  • Targeted Weed Control Services: Effective weed control protects your lawn from dandelions, clover, and other invasive plants. Professional Burlington weed control services use safe, approved products to target weeds without harming healthy grass. Regular treatments prevent infestations before they spread, keeping your lawn looking pristine and well-maintained.
  • Core Aeration and Liquid Aeration: Aeration relieves soil compaction, improves oxygen and water absorption, and allows fertilizers to penetrate more effectively. Core aeration removes small soil plugs, while liquid aeration loosens compacted soil with minimal disruption. Both methods strengthen roots and promote a thicker, more resilient Burlington lawn.
  • Lawn Overseeding and Repair: Overseeding fills in thin or bare spots, enhancing density and curb appeal. When combined with aeration and fertilization, overseeding ensures your Burlington lawn grows thicker, healthier, and better able to resist weeds and pests.
  • Insect and Disease Prevention: Protecting your lawn from pests and disease keeps your grass and lawn care investment safe. Professional Burlington treatments target potential threats early, minimizing damage and supporting long-term lawn health.
  • Ongoing Lawn Health Monitoring: Healthy lawns need consistent care. Our team monitors your Burlington lawn, adjusts treatment schedules, and identifies emerging issues to ensure your grass thrives through every season.

 

Tips to Maximize Your Burlington Lawn Care Services at Home:

  • Water deeply and infrequently to encourage strong root systems.

  • Mow regularly, but never remove more than one-third of the grass blade.

  • Keep mower blades sharp to prevent tearing, which can invite disease.

  • Minimize walking on wet or freshly treated areas to avoid soil compaction.

  • Follow seasonal recommendations for fertilization, aeration, and overseeding.

  • Remove debris and fallen leaves promptly to improve sunlight penetration and airflow.

Choosing a professional Burlington lawn care service means fewer guess-and-check treatments, more visible results, and a lawn that looks healthier and more vibrant year-round. By combining our expert services with simple at-home habits, your lawn will reach its full potential and remain the envy of your Burlington neighbourhood.

Professional Lawn Care and Weed Control in Burlington

DIY solutions can be tempting, and we understand the appeal. A quick online search for DIY weed control often leads to vinegar mixtures, dish soap concoctions, and plenty of hopeful experimentation. The problem? Most home remedies damage your grass long before they eliminate a single weed. Burlington homeowners often learn this the hard way—brown patches, stressed turf, and weeds that return stronger than ever.

Professional Burlington weed control services use regulated, effective products like Fiesta weed killer, which target broadleaf weeds without harming healthy grass. Working with an experienced Burlington weed control company ensures proper timing, accurate application, and long-term results—not temporary fixes. Effective weed control in Burlington is about prevention, consistency, and understanding how local weeds behave throughout the season.


Our Burlington Weed Control Services Manage:

  • Dandelions

  • Thistles

  • Clover

  • Creeping Charlie

  • Plantain

  • Other common Burlington lawn weeds

Dandelions, Thistles, and Other Broadleaf Weeds
Fiesta weed control is highly effective against weeds with centralized taproots. With precise timing and professional application, these common Burlington lawn weeds don’t stand a chance.

Creeping Charlie, Wild Violet, and Clover
These aggressive spreaders can be tougher to control, but our comprehensive Burlington weed control programs and ongoing guidance help restore healthier turf over time.


Fertilization: Timing Matters in Burlington

Two questions we hear most from Burlington homeowners are: How often can I fertilize my lawn? and When should I fertilize my lawn in spring in Canada? The answers depend on Burlington’s soil, grass types, and seasonal weather patterns.

In general:

  • Early Spring: Focus on root development.

  • Late Spring: Support strong top growth and vibrant colour.

  • Summer: Help turf handle heat and environmental stress.

  • Fall: Strengthen roots for winter survival and spring recovery.

Professional Burlington lawn care services remove the guesswork. Instead of over- or under-applying nutrients, you receive a carefully timed, seasonally optimized plan designed specifically for Burlington lawns.


Aeration, Overseeding, and Soil Health in Burlington

Compacted soil is one of the main reasons Burlington lawns struggle, especially in areas with clay-heavy ground. Aeration is the key to allowing oxygen, water, and nutrients to reach the root zone where your grass needs them most.

Benefits of aeration and overseeding include:

  • Stronger root growth

  • Better fertilizer absorption

  • Reduced thatch buildup

  • Thicker, more resilient turf

We offer both core aeration and liquid aeration, depending on your lawn’s condition and goals. Pairing aeration with overseeding is one of the most effective ways to improve lawn density, fill in thin patches, and boost overall turf health—especially after hot Burlington summers.

*Core aeration is limited to select properties and available for lawns up to 9,000 sq. ft., typically offered in the fall. Additional conditions may apply.
