We are extremely happy with Kyle's work. Our front yard has never looked so good. He keeps us aware of his arrival. His last two visits were rearranged due to rain. Kyle was in constant contact with us concerning the weather. He is an awesome landscaper!

Easy, Affordable Lawn Care Services in Elgin
Are you tired of staring at a dull, brown lawn in Elgin? Let LawnStarter take the reins and transform your outdoor space into a lush and vibrant oasis. From mowing and trimming to edging and fertilization, we have all the local pros to give you the lawn of your dreams.
Common Grass Types: Cool-season grasses like Kentucky bluegrass and tall fescue are popular choices for homeowners in Elgin.
Best Time to Plant Grass: It’s best to plant grass in the late summer to early fall to give the grass two to three months to get established before winter comes.
Spring Lawn Care Tips: Water your lawn heavily but sparingly. Avoid applying too much water every day to avoid lawn disease during the summer.
Fall Lawn Care Tips: Keep watering your cool-season grass during the fall because it is the growing season. You should also rake up leaves to avoid fungal lawn diseases and aerate to improve lawn health.
Common Lawn Diseases: Brown patch, summer patch, dollar spot, and leaf spot.
How LawnStarter Can Take Care of Your Lawn: LawnStarter can take care of your Elgin lawn by providing a range of outdoor services, such as lawn mowing, fertilization, aeration, and pest control. With our help, you can have a healthy, beautiful lawn.
