Did you know that having a beautiful lawn/yard can add 5 or more percent to a home's value? It signals that the rest of the home is well kept and is worth top dollar. A lush green lawn can also lower a homes air conditioning costs, grass remains cool even an the hottest days. Just 5000 square feet of lawn produces as much oxygen as two 100 foot tall trees.
Now this is very interesting despit the efforts to "rip the strip" or desertscaping. Over the period of a year, the grass blades and roots in an acre of healthy lawn absorb hundreds of pounds of pollutants from air and rainwater, including nitrates, sulfer dioxide, nitrogen oxide, hydrogen fluoride, and other gases blamed for acid rain and the greenhouse effect.
Good healthy lawns are not that hard to create, with a little commitment to regular watering, mowing and basic care, you can have a green healthy lawn that is far more likely to resist pests, disease and drought.

Trouble Growing Flowers???
If you are having trouble with some of your flowers or have spots your flowers always die, we can test your ph level in your soil. A good neutral soil should be between 6.0 and 7.5, a high (alkaline) reading above 7.5 or low (acidic) reading will limit what you can grow successfully. Many plants actually prefer the alkaline or acidic soil. Soil amendments that are worked into the soil over time can improve the fertility and texture of such high or low soils. Some can change the ph level, there are many different types of amendments you could use here is a example of some.
Blood meal (no Joke this is real stuff)
Bonemeal
Compost
Sphagnum peat moss
Soil conditioner
Gypsum
Lime
Sand and gravel
Perlite
Garden Sulfur
Manure
If you would like to know what benefits each one of these different types could do for your soil email us at premierlawnservices@hotmail.com and we will send you back information as to which one's you inquire about.

We even do small repairs, like welding.
