Winterize Your Lawn Now!

The earlier you start winterizing your lawn, the easier it’ll be to manage when the sun finally shows her lovely face again come spring. That being said, if you haven’t begun preparing your lawn for winter yet, it isn’t too late to start. Any amount of work that you put in today will ensure less work when winter has ended. So pull on your gloves, put on your earmuffs and head outside to prepare your lawn for the winter chill!

  1. As you prepare your yard for the harsh elements of winter, safeguard only the plants that you want to keep. This means, get rid of those pesky weeds you’ve avoided removing! Perennial weeds compete for nutrients with the rest of your lawn so it’s important to remove them as soon as possible.
  1. Purchase a fertilizer formulated specifically for winterizing lawns. These fertilizers have a higher potassium content than warmer weather fertilizers. They’re designed to strengthen plants under stress. Apply the fertilizer evenly over the grass using a spreader, but make sure not to over fertilize!
  1. Refresh the lawn by aerating it. This allows air, water, and nutrients to reach down to the roots of the grass and encourages stronger and healthier growth.
  1. In order to maintain your flower and vegetable beds in the winter, it’s important to insulate the topsoil by adding a thick layer of mulch or covering the bed with burlap.
  1. Rake your lawn and continue to remove any debris such as fallen limps. That being said, over-raking can actually be harmful for your lawn. Fallen leaves have a lot of benefit to wildlife and your garden. They provide nutrients for certain organisms, increase soil fertility, reduce pollution, and reduce waste!

We could not be more pleased with the entire process and outcome of our experience with Albaugh & Sons. From the timely turnaround on coming out to give us an estimate, to the flexibility on adjusting our proposal, and to the quick and professional installation itself. I would highly recommend Albaugh & Sons to anyone in their area of serviceability.

So great to work with. Have had the pleasure of working with both sons who were knowledgeable and courteous. The entire process was easy from estimate to completion of my new deck. Both arrived on time, had my estimate for both deck and basement remodel in a couple of days. Danny, the project manager arrived on time and explained the plans, the work crew were amazing. Old deck demolished and beautiful new composite in its place in less than 2 days. Tiffany, the office manager is prompt in responding to all emails with courteous knowledgeable answers. They make you feel like you are their only customer. Look forward to working with them for my basement remodel. I 100% recommend this company.

I had a beautiful deck built almost 2 years ago. I called yesterday about a few items that have come apart such as the pvc outside corners on the rim/ band board etc. The company was very responsive and ready and eager to help. Because of this, they have made a customer for life! Not only will you get an amazing product, but it appears you get a lifetime of amazing customer service!! 100 out of 5 stars!

We needed a fence as fast as possible for 5 rescue dogs that we took on. Albaugh and Sons was able to provide a great quote and a speedy installation. My wife and I love the new fence. It has literally improved our day to day lives by being able to let the dogs run free in the back. The materials were perfect and high quality. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family.

I hired Albaugh and Sons to tear out our old deck and replace it with a new composite deck/ screened porch. The front office was a pleasure to deal with and kept my wife and I informed on everything. The crew did an amazing job every step of the way. I was especially impressed with their finish work. The attention to detail was impressive! What I also liked Albaugh and Sons is they had a project manager (Danny) who would occasionally pop over and answer questions and would also keep me updated on progress. I would highly recommend hiring Albaugh and Sons for any of your fence/ deck / home improvement needs.

We are very pleased with the work done by Albaugh and sons. We had them replace our side porch and they did excellent work and built it to our request. Also had them install a three tier rail fence around our property. It is excellent and looks great. We thank Danny and his deck crew and George and his fence crew for their excellent work. I recommend them for any projects you need done. Thank you very much!!
