Check Out Our Lawn Care Packages

Over the past 20 years, we have developed multiple programs that are fully customizable, based on your lawn, budget, and goals. When you sign up for one of our lawn care programs in Maine, you can rest assured that your lawn will receive everything it needs to remain healthy.

Lawn Renovation

Your yard is a living and breathing organism—this means it needs the proper nutrients in order to grow and be the healthiest, most beautiful yard it can be. Lawn renovation ensures your soil can absorb nutrients, water, and sunlight. 

Our lawn renovation program includes:

• Overlapping aeration multiple times, loosening the soil for optimal seed contact.
• Seeding in the fall. 
• Raking the soil in order to improve the seed-to-soil contact.
• Lawn fertilization, giving the newly planted seeds the best opportunity to thrive.

Grub Control

Beetle larva, more commonly known as grubs, are the white, C-shaped insects you may see in your yard. They live underground, so you may not know you have a grub infestation unless you see dead patches in your grass or your yard feels spongy. If you suspect grubs, pull back the turf—if the grass pulls up easily (almost like new sod), you may find white grubs in the top inch of the soil.

Signs of Grubs in Your Yard

Grubs are more common in the mid-to-late summer months, as that's when most beetles lay their eggs. Keep an eye out for these pests in the fall and spring, as they return to the surface as it gets warmer outside to lay their own eggs. Another sign you may have grubs are moles, skunks, raccoons, or other wildlife creatures as they feast on grubs.  

We offer two types of grub control services:

• Year-long grub prevention, preventing existing grub eggs from hatching throughout the season. This is applied with our Early Spring Pre-Emergent Application.
• Curative grub control for existing grubs. This can be applied any time throughout the year, and it may be repeated.

Weed Control

Tired of pulling weeds? Who isn't! With our weed control, known as our vegetation management program, The Turf Doctor can provide season-long control of unwanted grasses and weeds. This program is perfect for mulch beds, crushed stone walkways, driveways, cracks in asphalt and concrete, ditches, fence lines, patios, and sidewalks.

The Most Common Weeds in Maine

While it can take up to an entire summer to fully eradicate weeds, The Turf Doctor guarantees results starting in a week. Our technicians are highly trained and up-to-date on the latest treatments. We use pre-emergent weed control for grassy weeds and post-emergent weed control for broadleaf weeds.

Our weed control includes treatment for the following weeds and grasses:

• Broadleaf—chickweeds, dandelions, spurges.
• Grassy weeds—crabgrass and foxtails.
• Nutsedge
• And other undesirable grasses!
