A:It depends on what conditions your yard faces at the time of our arrival. Weeds can be removed quite easily while repairs to dead patches can take a bit longer.

A:At Showcase we apply a slow release fertilizer, meaning that the nutrients will be released slowly over a period of six weeks or so. If the forecast is dry in your area, you’ll need to water your lawn yourself.

A:We only apply weed control when weeds are present or after they’ve germinated. Our broadleaf weed control won’t control nuisance grasses, such as orchard, barnyard, Bermuda, or nutsedge.

A:When we visit your property for lawn treatments we’ll also inspect your trees and shrubs for insects and diseases. This service is free of charge.

A:Visit our website once a month to see what current problems your areas are facing. We post tips about fungi, diseases, insects and other lawn problems that crop up throughout the season.

A:We recommend that you mow your lawn at a minimum of 3″. During dry spells, heatwaves and droughts, cut your lawn at 4″ to keep it from burning out. This will also help your lawn stay healthy during a hot, dry period.

A:We recommend watering your lawn before the hottest part of the day, so between 4 a.m. and 9 a.m. to reduce evaporation.

A:We start taking core aeration appointments in late August through early October. If you have light patches in your lawn, we can also overseed that area when we aerate. Check with our office for pricing.

A:We ask that you pay your bill within 15 days of the invoice date. We make paying your lawn care bill easy. Just go to our website to set up your auto-pay account. If we don’t receive your payment within 90 days, we’ll submit your unpaid invoices to collections.

A:Yes, your services will automatically renew each year unless you call us. You can also email us through your online account.

A:We begin to send our first wave of discounts in November.

A:Yes, you can see your service history through your online account or by calling the Office Phone: 717-354-3226 or Toll Free: 800-503-3426.

A:We apply grub control at the same time as our round 3 application. Our third round takes place in June and July. This is an add-on service and not part of the lawn care program.

A:Pennsylvania soil is commonly too acidic for a healthy lawn. After we perform a soil test we will apply lime to the soil one time per year to bring pH balances back to the optimal range. This is also an add-on service.

A:Please let us know right away if your lawn is having a reaction to the application. The longer you wait, the harder it is to correct the problem. You can call our office immediately at 717-354-3226.

A:Yes. All service calls are free when you sign up for our five or more lawn care applications program. If you don’t notice any wilting or yellowing of weeds within 10-14 days, email us through your online portal or call us at Office Phone: 717-354-3226 or Toll Free: 800-503-3426 to set up your service call.

A:We offer a $50 credit to your account for each customer you refer. Your account will receive the $50 credit when the referred customer signs up, completes, and pays for their Full Lawn Treatment Program.

A:We call ahead or send out reminder emails the day before your service, upon request.

A:Yes, please. Also, make sure you remove all children’s outside toys and anything else on the lawn. If you have a dog, please keep it locked up.

p>A:At Showcase Lawn works, we use organic-based granular products for all of our lawn services—except for our weed control which is liquid-based. You, your children, and your pets can go back on your lawn right after we apply the granular products.

For our liquid applications, it’s safe to go back on your lawn when it’s dry. Depending on the service, you may need to stay off your lawn for up to two hours. Check your service notification sheet that your technician will leave behind after he’s finished working on your lawn. That notification sheet will have instructions for how long you need to stay off of your lawn as well as when the application was applied to your lawn.

If you have any questions or concerns, call our office at 717-354-3226.

A:All of our fertilizers are organic-based. Our pesticides are synthetic and contain ingredients approved by the Environmental Protection Agency.
