Lawn Fertilization and Weed Control Services

J&J Landscape Management, Inc. has been providing professional lawn fertilization and weed control for our customers in Northern Virginia for over 25 years. During that time, we have created a lawn care program with proven results that can be seen in the healthy and beautiful turf at the properties we maintain. Our program follows the guidelines put forth by the Virginia Tech Cooperative Extension and has been reviewed and approved by turf care experts. Here is a breakdown of the lawn fertilization and weed control services provided.

Lawn Fertilization and Weed Control Process

1. Early Spring Pre-Emergent Weed Control (March - April)

Getting an early jump on annual grassy weeds such as crabgrass is very important. Pre-emergent weed controls prevent annual weed seeds from germinating in the spring. This is the only way to guarantee grassy weeds won’t infiltrate your turf. The general time window for this application is early spring, but exact timing varies every year depending on soil temperatures and weather conditions. Trust the J&J team to apply your pre-emergent properly and timely to ensure your lawn is weed-free all year long.

2. Late Spring Post-Emergent Weed Control (May - June)

Post-Emergent Weed control treats all broadleaf weeds that may be present in your lawn. Late spring is the time to treat these weeds before they can spread and take over your property. Clover, broadleaf plantains, dandelion, ground ivy, and other broadleaf weeds are treated at this time.

3. Mid Summer Broadleaf Spot Treatment (June - July)

Invariably, some small broadleaf weeds may still be visible in mid-summer, especially in lawns that are new to a professional treatment program. Our mid-summer visit treats all of these broadleaf weeds in addition to any sedge weeds that may be present.

4. Early Fall Fertilization (August - September)

Fall is the best time to fertilize cool-season grasses in Virginia. Our fall fertilizer visits provide a total of 3.5 lbs of Nitrogen per 1,000 sq. ft. of turf area, just the right amount to ensure thick, lush, green turf. The first application is applied in early fall as the weather cools and the turf recovers from the stress of the hot dry summer weather.

5. Fall Fertilization (October - November)

Another application of slow-release fertilizer is applied in mid-fall.

6. Late Fall/Winter Fertilization (November - January)

Our final turf application of the year is the late fall fertilizer or limestone application. This application is a slow-release fertilizer that gives your lawn the nutrients it needs to survive the winter and come back stronger than ever next spring.

What Our Clients are Saying…

"a pleasure to work with"

We have been customers of J and J Landscape Management for about a year. Thus far, they have provided fall leaf removal services and spring and fall clean-up services (weeding, pruning, edging, mulching and seasonal flowers). Earlier this year they also installed ground cover over a large space in our front yard where grass refused to grow. Over the past year, we have been working with Mr. Donnell Jones to request services. Mr. Jones has always been courteous, professional, patient and very responsive. Ms. Jill Boyarko, Account Representative, has also been a pleasure to work with. The teams that arrive on site are punctual, professional and hardworking; leaving our yard looking fabulous every time! Outstanding customer service is hard to come by these days. This team has set the bar. We plan to continue working with J and J Landscape in the future and would highly recommend this company.

"hire them, you can't go wrong!"

Easily one of the best service businesses I’ve dealt with (and I deal with a lot of them). Staff members are polite and courteous; they shut down the machinery when they’ve seen my kids walk up the driveway from school. I was starting to just accept the dandelions, dirt and onion grass my lawn had become but within a year of hiring them the crew at J & J have turned my lawn around and it looks fantastic! The flower beds, hedges and plantings are also all thriving under their care. Just hire them, you can’t go wrong!

– Thomas Petrilli

"outstanding service"

We have been using J&J for more than 5 years to do both our annual mulching, cleanup, landscaping and planting. Additionally, we use them monthly to do yard maintenance. Our yard has never looked better. They are timely, do excellent work and we highly recommend them and their outstanding service.

– Amy Dufrane

"exceeded my expectations"

J&J absolutely exceeded my expectations in every way. Their team was friendly, professional, and communicative. The quality of their works was probably the best I have had in the Northern Virginia area. I would unquestionably recommend them.

– Jeff F

"Highly recommend!"

We have worked with J&J on several projects including routine monthly landscaping. They are fantastic. Very well priced. The crews they send are great. The work is excellent. Highly recommend!

– Ryan Guthrie

"great to work with"

J&J were great to work with. Their team was thoroughly professional and knowledgable. We had them re-landscape our front and back yards and put down new sod in certain areas. They finished on-time and on-budget. When it turned out that they had extra sod, they even asked if i wanted more put down at no cost to me. Which of course I did! Now that they’ve done such a great job of improving our yard, I plan to continue using them to help me maintain it. I highly recommend them.
