Offering Organic Lawn Fertilization Services

Knowing how to shop around and compare lawn fertilization services is the first thing a homeowner needs to know about this industry, especially when so many companies are pushing their literature to the homeowner. See our About Us page to understand our business philosophy and how it impacts the way we treat our team and our clients. It’s not just about throwing down a product and calling it a day, it’s about supporting you to the very best of our ability!

The Contender’s guarantee encompasses both lawn fertilization service and weed re-treatments, because we know our products, when applied correctly by our technicians, will not fade in 3 weeks. Although certain hard-to-control weeds may take longer to tackle, we will see to it that our results are making a difference.

Educate yourself before hiring an organic lawn fertilization service company

A reputable lawn fertilization company holds its staff accountable for adhering to laws, fair pricing and quality of service. Here is a list of tips and some of the most important questions to ask yourself and/or the lawn fertilization companies you’re vetting to hire:

  • Will they send out the same technician every time?
  • Will the granular fertilizer be blown off my drives and walks? It is a Michigan Law!
  • How much training time did they invest in their team this winter or were their workers laid off the entire time?
  • If you have crabgrass in the middle of summer, will there be extra hidden charges to treat it?
  • Are their technicians allowed to adjust the rates of application based on what your lawn needs? Some companies have such low pricing that the managers have welded spreader settings to a low setting, preventing their technicians from helping achieve the best results.
  • Every company commits to free service calls. Most use it to push extra sales – others just spray weeds. Find a company that communicates at the highest level, validating your property’s true needs!
  • Do they have GPS tracking on every truck, ensuring their technicians are held accountable?
  • Shop the total cost for service. Are they selling 7 or 8 applications because they apply it in lighter amounts? This is Michigan, not Georgia! Rarely can one fit in more than 6 applications every 4-6 weeks without snow being in the way.
  • Are they including grub control and other insecticide applications as a part of their organic lawn fertilization service package? If so, the price is far more than the initial cost, and a red flag should go up. Validate that they are applying an insecticide when they say they are. Ask the technicians to show you the product that is in their trucks and walk you through the process.
