Complete Lawn Maintenance

The Vita Touch for Your Lawn

A lush, healthy lawn is the foundation of a beautiful landscape. At Vita Green LLC, we’ve been perfecting lawn care techniques for over 30 years, helping homeowners and businesses across central Washington achieve the green, vibrant lawns they desire.

Why Professional Lawn Maintenance Makes a Difference

Professional lawn maintenance is an investment in your property’s health and appearance. Regular, expert maintenance prevents weeds and disease before they start, saves time and effort for busy homeowners, ensures proper nutrient balance for optimal growth, and creates a safe, enjoyable outdoor space for families and pets. A well-maintained lawn also significantly increases curb appeal and property value.

Our Complete Lawn Maintenance Services

Our comprehensive lawn maintenance program includes all the essential services your lawn needs to thrive:

Regular Mowing & Maintenance

We provide reliable, scheduled mowing services with sharp, properly maintained equipment. Correct mowing height and frequency are crucial for lawn health—mowing too short stresses grass and encourages weeds, while maintaining the proper height promotes deeper roots and drought resistance.

Core Aeration

Aeration is one of the most beneficial treatments for your lawn. Over time, soil becomes compacted from foot traffic, equipment, and natural settling. Compacted soil restricts water, air, and nutrient penetration to grass roots. Core aeration removes small plugs of soil, allowing roots to breathe and grow deeper. We recommend aerating your lawn at least once per season and suggest a 2nd aeration during the season.

Overseeding

Overseeding introduces new grass varieties to fill in bare spots and thicken your lawn. Thicker grass naturally crowds out weeds and better withstands disease and drought. We use premium seed blends suited to central Washington’s climate and your specific sun/shade conditions.

Dethatching

Thatch is a layer of dead grass and organic matter that accumulates between the soil and living grass. While a thin layer is beneficial, excessive thatch (over half an inch) prevents water and nutrients from reaching roots and harbors pests and disease. We remove excess thatch to restore your lawn’s health.

Weeding

Regular weeding keeps your lawn looking its best and prevents weeds from competing with grass for water, nutrients, and sunlight. We use targeted approaches to eliminate weeds without harming your healthy turf.

Soil Testing & Analysis

We offer professional soil testing to determine pH levels and nutrient deficiencies. This scientific approach allows us to customize fertilization programs rather than using generic, one-size-fits-all treatments.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should my lawn be mowed? During peak growing season (spring and early summer), weekly mowing is typically ideal. In hot, dry periods, we may extend to every 10-14 days. We never remove more than one-third of the grass blade at once, which promotes healthier growth.

What is the best time to aerate my lawn? For cool-season grasses common in central Washington, fall is ideal (September-October). Spring (April-May) is also effective. We do aerate in the summer to help get water into the soil, which is especially beneficial during hot, dry periods.

Will aeration damage my lawn? No. While your lawn may look temporarily messy with soil plugs on the surface, these break down quickly. Within 2-3 weeks, you’ll notice improved grass vigor and color.

Do you offer organic lawn maintenance options? Yes, we offer organic and low-impact options for customers who prefer environmentally gentle approaches. Ask about our organic programs during your consultation.

How long before I see results? You’ll notice immediate improvement in appearance from mowing and edging. Aeration and overseeding results become visible in 2-4 weeks. Comprehensive lawn health improvement typically takes one full growing season.
