Seven applications across the season, timed to Connecticut soil temperatures rather than a national calendar. Fertilization, weed control and grub protection are all part of the program. Disease treatment and fall aeration run separately, on their own timing.
Five fertilizer treatments using slow-release nitrogen and professional-grade products, so color holds through summer heat instead of surging and fading.
See the fertilization programCrabgrass pre-emergent before soil reaches 55 degrees, then broadleaf and nutsedge treatment as weeds emerge. Included in every visit, not billed separately.
See our weed control approachBrown patch, dollar spot, red thread and summer patch identified and treated. Disease runs on its own cadence, so this is a separate preventive program rather than part of the seven applications.

What we won't promise is that new weeds never appear. Connecticut lawns are surrounded by woods, wind and wildlife bringing in new seed all season.
The same licensed crew that feeds your lawn handles tick control, tree and shrub care, and fall aeration. One account, one bill, one phone number that a person actually answers.
Middlebury sits between Waterbury and Naugatuck, and its mix of open suburban lots and wooded edges creates a split personality when it comes to lawn care. Open, sunny areas fight crabgrass and broadleaf weeds, while shaded areas under the tree canopy thin out over time and become susceptible to fungal disease. Managing both conditions on the same property takes knowledge and a flexible treatment approach — which is exactly what Pro Turf Lawn Care brings to every Middlebury lawn.
Our Middlebury program covers the full spectrum: multi-round fertilization that feeds both sun-exposed and shade-stressed turf, targeted weed control treatments timed to Middlebury's growing season, preventative fungicide for shaded areas, and fall aeration and overseeding to rebuild density across the whole property. Middlebury homeowners trust Pro Turf because we actually understand their lawns — and we deliver results that show it.
Every town has its own pressure. Knowing what to expect is half of treating it correctly, and it's the difference between a program built for your property and one run off a national calendar.
Grub and surface insect control are part of the seven-application season, not billed as extras.
Still not sure? Call and ask. A licensed applicator will tell you honestly what your lawn needs.
We adjust fertilization rates, product selection, and fungicide applications based on the specific conditions in each area of your property — it is not one-size-fits-all.
Fall aeration in September or October is optimal. It relieves compaction from summer traffic and improves root growth before dormancy.
Yes — pre-emergent herbicide in early spring stops crabgrass before it germinates. Sunny open areas are the most vulnerable and get priority treatment.
We offer fall overseeding paired with aeration for existing lawns, and grass seeding for new or renovated areas. We select varieties appropriate for Middlebury's light conditions.
