What Your Lawn Actually Needs

Your lawn isn’t just grass. It’s your home’s first impression, your kids’ play space, and honestly, a bigger part of your property value than most people realize.

But here’s what you already know: keeping it healthy takes more than running a mower over it once a week. Long Island’s weather throws everything at your grass – from summer heat stress to winter salt damage to spring thatch buildup that chokes out new growth.

You need someone who understands that your lawn in Huntington faces different challenges than lawns in other parts of the country. Someone who knows when to aerate, what fertilizer works with our soil, and how to handle the crabgrass that seems to love our climate. When your lawn care is handled right, you get weekends back, your property looks consistently sharp, and you stop worrying about brown spots showing up right before you have company over.

Huntington Lawn Maintenance Experts

We Know Long Island Lawns

Rolling Hills Property Services Inc has been taking care of residential lawns throughout Huntington and the surrounding Long Island area for years. We’re the local crew that homeowners call when they want their lawn care handled by people who actually understand what works here.

We’re not the biggest lawn service on Long Island, and we’re not trying to be. What we are is reliable, knowledgeable about local conditions, and focused on keeping your lawn healthy through every season. Our clients stick with us because we show up when scheduled, we know what we’re doing, and we handle the details so they don’t have to think about it.

Lawn Care Service Process

Here's How We Handle Everything

We start with a quick look at your lawn to understand what you’re working with – grass type, soil conditions, problem areas, and what you want your lawn to look like. No lengthy sales presentations, just a straightforward assessment of what needs to happen.

From there, we set up your regular mowing schedule. Most of our Huntington clients are on weekly service during growing season, but we adjust based on weather and growth patterns. We handle edging, trimming, and cleanup each visit, so your property looks finished, not just mowed.

The seasonal work happens automatically. Spring cleanup and first fertilization. Summer adjustments for heat stress. Fall aeration and overseeding where needed. Winter prep to protect against salt and cold damage. You don’t have to remember what needs to happen when – we track it all and take care of it as part of your service.

Everything Your Lawn Actually Needs

Our lawn care services cover what your grass needs to stay healthy year-round in Huntington’s climate. Weekly mowing with proper height adjustment for your grass type. Edge trimming around walkways, driveways, and landscape beds. String trimming in areas the mower can’t reach cleanly.

Fertilization happens on a schedule that makes sense for Long Island growing conditions – not too early in spring, not too late in fall, and with the right nutrients for our soil types. We handle pre-emergent crabgrass control before it becomes a problem and spot-treat weeds as they show up during regular visits.

Seasonal services include spring cleanup to remove winter debris and thatch, aeration to relieve soil compaction, and overseeding in thin areas. Fall cleanup gets your lawn ready for winter without leaving debris that can cause disease problems. We bring all equipment and products, so you don’t need to store anything or make trips to the garden center.

How often should my lawn be mowed during growing season?

Most lawns in Huntington need weekly mowing during peak growing season, which typically runs from late April through October. However, this can vary based on grass type, weather conditions, and how much you’re watering. Cool-season grasses like fescue and bluegrass that are common here grow most actively in spring and fall, so they might need more frequent cutting during those periods. We adjust the schedule based on actual growth rather than sticking to a rigid calendar, which means your lawn gets cut when it needs it, not just because it’s been a week.

When is the best time to fertilize lawns on Long Island?

The fertilization schedule for Long Island lawns depends on your grass type, but most residential lawns here do best with early spring feeding (late March to early April), a lighter summer application if needed, and a more substantial fall feeding in September or early October. Fall fertilization is actually more important than spring for cool-season grasses because it helps build root strength for winter survival and early spring green-up. We avoid fertilizing during the hottest summer months because it can stress the grass and waste nutrients. The timing also depends on local weather patterns each year, so we adjust based on actual conditions rather than following a strict calendar.

What can be done about brown spots and thin areas in my lawn?

Brown spots and thin areas usually come from a few common causes: compacted soil, grubs or other pests, dog urine, fungal disease, or simply worn-out grass that needs reseeding. The fix depends on what’s causing the problem. Soil compaction responds well to aeration, especially in fall. Grub damage needs targeted treatment and usually reseeding the following spring. Disease issues often require improving drainage and air circulation, sometimes with selective pruning of nearby shrubs. For general thin areas, overseeding in early fall gives the best results because new grass has time to establish before winter. We can identify what’s causing your specific brown spots and recommend the right approach rather than guessing.

How do I know if my lawn needs aeration?

Your lawn probably needs aeration if water runs off instead of soaking in, if the grass feels spongy when you walk on it (indicating thatch buildup), or if you notice the grass struggling despite adequate water and fertilizer. Compacted soil is common in Long Island because of our clay content and the freeze-thaw cycles we get each winter. You can test this yourself by trying to push a screwdriver into the soil – if it’s difficult to penetrate more than a couple inches, compaction is likely an issue. Most established lawns benefit from aeration every 2-3 years, with fall being the ideal time because it allows the grass to recover and take advantage of fall growing conditions.

What's included in typical weekly lawn service visits?

Weekly service includes mowing at the proper height for your grass type, edging along all hard surfaces like driveways and walkways, string trimming around obstacles and in areas the mower can’t reach, and cleanup of clippings from paved surfaces. We also do a quick visual check for obvious problems like new weeds, insect damage, or irrigation issues that might need attention. The grass height is adjusted seasonally – higher in summer to help with heat tolerance, and lower in fall to prevent matting under snow. We bring all equipment and handle maintenance, so you don’t need to worry about storing mowers or keeping equipment running. If we notice anything that needs immediate attention, we’ll let you know rather than waiting until it becomes a bigger problem.

How much does professional lawn care cost in Huntington?

Lawn care costs in Huntington vary based on property size, services included, and how much work your lawn needs, but most residential properties fall into a predictable range for weekly mowing service. Additional services like fertilization, aeration, and seasonal cleanups are typically priced separately or as part of a comprehensive package. The investment usually pays for itself when you consider the cost of buying and maintaining equipment, purchasing fertilizers and treatments, and the time value of doing it yourself. We provide straightforward pricing based on your specific property and needs rather than using generic estimates. Most clients find that professional service costs less than they expected when they factor in all the equipment, products, and time they’re no longer spending on lawn care.
