Have the Best Yard in Hawthorn Woods, Illinois with Residential Landscaping Services from McGinty Bros., Inc.

The Secret to a Healthy Green Lawn Is Consistency

Nobody likes that secret. It's not fun, there's no flash, and it doesn't involve a juice detox. But the key to good health is consistent maintenance from start to... until you decide you don't want a lawn anymore. A lawn provides a buffer against erosion, pests, and weeds, though, so we hope that day never happens.

A single weed control application or fertilizer won't give your lawn the deep green hue you're looking for. Fertilizers and herbicides (and pesticides) compete, and that can stress out your grass. That's why our lawn care experts can create a customized schedule of treatments based on your lawn's grass type and the types of treatments it needs. Season after season, our team can make sure your lawn has all the resources it needs to stay green now and prepare for the next seasonal change.

Our Customizable 5-Step Lawn Care Makes You The Joneses in Hawthorn Woods, IL

Every layer of our lawn treatments is designed to make your yard healthier. Your customized 5-step lawn care program treats the soil, the plants, and the seeds for next season's growth. While those five steps apply to the schedule more than the individual components, our lawn care includes several different elements. Many of these can help keep your landscaping plants and trees stronger, too. Here's how:

Fertilizers Are Like Protein Powder for Plants

Depending on your soil's composition and micronutrients, your plants might need more than what your soil has to offer. All of our services start with a professional evaluation so we can give your plants the best care without guessing.

Fertilizers fortify your plants so they can grow strong roots and protect themselves from disease. Deep root fertilizers for your trees also give them long-lasting nutrients to make up for deficiencies in the soil.

Our Pest Control Treatments Reduce Pests Now and Protect Your Property from Future Pests

Good pest control plays the long game. Instead of bringing out the hardcore chemicals that kill your landscape along with the pests, we introduce chemicals that kill the next generation's eggs. We also use treatments to control current infestations at the right time of season and the right way.

Our pest control programs are designed to protect every inch of your landscaping. We'll look for anthills hiding in the grass, caterpillars chewing their way through your garden, and wasp nests hiding out of sight. No matter what insects (and diseases) are popping up in your yard, we can find the right way to contain them.

Our customizable Hawthorn Woods, IL lawn care services also include weed control and core aeration.

Good Landscaping Enriches Your Property Value

Having a beautiful landscape carries intrinsic value. But it also impacts your property value. When grass can grow strong roots deep into the soil, it creates a thick carpet that helps the soil in place. That mitigates the risk of erosion and soil loss. Healthy plants also balance your yard's water intake so you have to worry less about puddles and marshy patches in your yard.

If you know your current home isn't your forever home, good landscaping will also help with the selling process. Curb appeal is a huge factor for prospective buyers, and nothing sells better than well-maintained landscaping.

McGinty Bros., Inc.'s Mulch Services For Hawthorn Woods, Illinois Enrich Your Yard and Improve the Landscaping

Good mulch is like a spring and fall fashion show for your yard. It looks great and frames all of your landscaping plants and trees. Unlike high fashion, a coat of mulch will actually keep your landscaping warm. Mulch insulates your trees' and plants' roots with a thick layer of nutrients. This protects the tree from shock freezes and weeds. It also gives plants the nutrients they need to grow strong roots, especially when they're new plant installations.

At McGinty Bros., Inc., we both provide and distribute mulching with our spray blowing system. That means we know what's in the mulch to make sure it has the right materials for your yard. You also get a smooth, beautiful application of mulch in your yard that looks picture-perfect.

We love helping homeowners in Hawthorn Woods, Barrington, North Shore, Lake Zurich, Northbrook, Highland Park and beyond with creating beautiful lawns.
