Grub Control
Grubs can damage your turf if not treated early and steps are not put in place to prevent them from hatching throughout the year. To avoid damaged grass we offer a grub control application which is typically applied in early July.
Weed Control
Property is sprayed for dandelions, as well as other broad-leaf weeds.
Enhancements and Additional Landscaping Services
Viello Landscapes, LLC also offers additional enhancements and services. Stated below are other services that we recommend. In order to provide you with our least costly landscaping management plan, they are not included in as part of the maintenance service.
Custom Design
If you are looking for a unique, personalized way to make a statement with your property Viello Landscapes, LLC can help you create custom landscape design that stem off of outdoor living trends. We will work with you from the initial concept through completion. We’ll be there to carefully orchestrate this process.
Mulching
This should be performed at least once every two years. Besides its obvious increase in esthetic appearance, mulch acts as a good insulator for plants during winter months; it provides a “moisture blanket” during the summer months and adds a nutrient source all year round.
Flowering
All landscapes are brought to life with colorful foliage. Nothing does this better then flowers. We encourage all our clients to use seasonal flowering to brighten up their property. Viello Landscapes, LLC provides flower planting services throughout the year.
After installation, we also provide continuous flower bed maintenance throughout the year. This is to insure vigorous and beautiful growth during the warm seasons.
Plant Renovation
Are your shrubs blocking windows and overpowering the house? Are there overgrown plantings crowding sidewalks? If you answered yes to any of these questions then it may be time for plant renovation.
Plant renovation is a very important part of home improvement. Even with conscientious trimming and maintenance, foundation plantings get over crowded after years of growth. Depending on how close your trees and shrubs were originally spaced, and what types of plants were used, this overcrowding could begin much sooner. Viello Landscapes, LLC will work with what can be salvaged and transplant or replace some plants and trees to create a balanced look to your landscape.
Aeration-Seeding
Core aeration allows air, moisture and nutrients to penetrate down to the root zone. Roots of existing grass plants spread out and grow deeper, creating a healthier, thicker lawn. Overseeding fills-in bare or thin spots and help build a thicker lawn faster. The new seed quickly takes root in the freshly aerated lawn and provides new life to your already established grass. As your lawn gets thicker and healthier, your new grass plants help reduce the chance of new weeds sprouting and grub hatching.
Gutter Cleaning
Thorough cleaning of roof, gutters and downspout (November).
