One of the lesser-known factors that a big impact on how your lawn grows, responds to lawn treatment and fights off external threats is its pH balance. Your lawn&#8217;s pH balance is essentially its measure of acidity, and when it becomes either too acidic or not acidic enough, it can throw your lawn out of balance and break down its health.

An out-of-balance pH will hinder your\u00a0lawn&#8217;s ability to effectively make use of the nutrients in the soil, which can severely impact your lawn&#8217;s health. Undernourished soil can lead to fading, thinning and the development of unsightly patchy areas, not to mention making maintenance and recovery extremely difficult. Our pH balancing treatments will help get your lawn back on track by replacing that chemical balance and allowing your turf to access the nutrients it needs to grow.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lawn Disease &amp; Weed Defense.\u00a0<\/strong>There are several varieties of both weeds and common lawn diseases that prey on lawns that are weakened by pH imbalances. When your lawn cannot effectively make use of the nutrients in the soil, it isn&#8217;t as resilient against these external threats. With our pH balancing treatments, we&#8217;ll help restore your lawn&#8217;s defenses to keep it healthier for longer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Guaranteed Lawn Treatments for Covington Residents<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Our\u00a0guarantee is one of the cornerstones of our service.
