What Your Lawn Actually Needs

Your lawn isn’t just grass—it’s your home’s first impression. When it’s thick, green, and properly maintained, you feel confident pulling into your driveway. Your neighbors notice. Your property value reflects it.

But getting there takes more than weekend mowing. Long Island’s sandy soil, salt air, and unpredictable weather create specific challenges that generic lawn care approaches can’t solve. Your grass needs consistent attention, proper timing, and techniques that work with Coram’s unique conditions.

That’s where professional lawn maintenance makes the difference. Regular mowing at the right height. Fertilization programs timed for our climate. Aeration that actually improves your soil health. The result is a lawn that stays healthy through summer heat and recovers quickly each spring.

We Know Long Island Lawns

Rolling Hills Property Services Inc has been maintaining lawns across Coram and the surrounding Long Island communities for years. We understand what works here—and what doesn’t.

Long Island lawns face challenges you won’t find in other regions. Sandy soil that drains too quickly. Salt air that stresses grass. Weather patterns that can shift from drought to downpour in the same week. We’ve developed our lawn care approach specifically for these conditions.

Our team uses professional-grade equipment and proven techniques that deliver consistent results. We’re not the weekend warriors with a truck and a mower—we’re the local experts who show up reliably and know how to keep your lawn healthy year-round.

Residential Lawn Care Process

Simple Process, Professional Results

We start with an assessment of your lawn’s current condition and specific needs. Every property is different, and we tailor our approach based on your grass type, soil conditions, and any problem areas that need attention.

Our regular service includes weekly mowing during growing season, maintaining the proper height for your grass type. We vary our mowing patterns to prevent soil compaction and ensure even growth. Clippings are managed to benefit your lawn health without creating thatch buildup.

Seasonal services like fertilization and aeration are scheduled based on Long Island’s climate patterns. Spring fertilization supports healthy growth. Fall aeration improves root development before winter. We communicate timing and explain what we’re doing so you understand how each service benefits your lawn’s long-term health.

Lawn Fertilization and Aeration

Complete Lawn Health Management

Our lawn care services go beyond basic mowing to address what your grass actually needs to thrive. Regular fertilization provides nutrients that Long Island’s sandy soil often lacks. We use slow-release formulations that feed your lawn consistently without causing excessive growth spurts.

Aeration services target soil compaction that builds up over time, especially in high-traffic areas. This process improves water absorption and allows roots to develop properly. For Coram’s soil conditions, fall aeration typically delivers the best results.

We also handle edge trimming, basic weed control, and seasonal cleanup that keeps your property looking maintained. Our goal is comprehensive lawn health—not just cutting grass, but creating the thick, resilient lawn that enhances your home’s appearance and value.

How often should my lawn be mowed during growing season?

Most Long Island lawns need weekly mowing during peak growing season, typically from late spring through early fall. However, the frequency can vary based on grass type, weather conditions, and fertilization schedule. Cool-season grasses common in Coram grow most actively in spring and fall, sometimes requiring more frequent cutting during these periods. We adjust our mowing schedule based on actual growth rates rather than sticking to a rigid calendar, ensuring your lawn is never cut too short or allowed to grow too long between services.

What's the best time of year for lawn aeration in New York?

Fall aeration works best for Long Island lawns, typically between late August and October. This timing allows grass roots to recover and strengthen before winter, leading to better spring growth. Fall aeration also coincides with cooler temperatures and more consistent rainfall, creating ideal conditions for recovery. Spring aeration can be beneficial for severely compacted lawns, but fall timing generally delivers superior results for our climate. We assess your lawn’s specific condition and recommend the optimal timing based on soil compaction levels and grass health.

How do I know if my lawn needs fertilization?

Signs your lawn needs fertilization include thin or sparse grass growth, pale green or yellowing color, slow recovery from foot traffic, and increased weed invasion. Long Island’s sandy soil tends to drain nutrients quickly, making regular fertilization more important than in other regions. A soil test can provide specific nutrient information, but most Coram lawns benefit from spring and fall fertilization programs. We evaluate your lawn’s color, density, and growth patterns to determine the appropriate fertilization schedule and nutrient blend for your specific conditions.

What mowing height is best for my type of grass?

Most Long Island lawns contain cool-season grasses like tall fescue, fine fescue, or perennial ryegrass, which should be maintained at 2.5 to 3.5 inches high. Cutting too short stresses the grass and makes it more susceptible to drought, disease, and weed invasion. Higher mowing heights promote deeper root development and better heat tolerance. We adjust cutting height seasonally—slightly higher during summer stress periods and lower during optimal growing conditions. The specific height depends on your grass type, lawn usage, and current growing conditions.

How much does professional lawn care cost compared to doing it myself?

Professional lawn care costs vary based on property size and services included, but many homeowners find the investment comparable to purchasing and maintaining their own equipment. Consider the cost of a quality mower, trimmer, fertilizer spreader, plus ongoing expenses like fuel, maintenance, and replacement parts. Professional service also includes expertise in timing, techniques, and problem diagnosis that can prevent costly lawn renovation. Most importantly, you save significant time each week during growing season—time that many busy homeowners value more than the cost difference.

Can you work around my schedule and property features?

Yes, we work with your schedule and property layout to provide convenient, thorough service. We can access most properties without homeowners being present, working around parked cars, outdoor furniture, and landscaping features. We communicate about any scheduling changes due to weather or property access issues. For properties with specific requirements—like avoiding certain areas during children’s playtime or working around pet schedules—we coordinate to meet your needs while maintaining consistent lawn care quality.
