How it works

  • Core aeration with seed: thousands of soil plugs are pulled to relieve compaction, then seed is spread and dragged into the open holes. The right choice for most lawns that are thin but not failing.
  • Power Seeding: our patented Turf Tamer slices seed directly into the soil without tearing up existing turf. Highest germination we offer, for full renovations and badly thinned lawns.
  • Patch Rx: spot repair for dog spots, summer burn and small bare areas.
  • Overseeding: seed spread over the surface with no soil prep. Least expensive, least effective; fine for a lawn in good shape that needs thickening.

Late August to about October 15 is the window. Shade lawns get a fescue blend; sun lawns get a bluegrass-rye blend.

Us vs. the big national chains

No run-around. No sales call every month.

Most people come to us after a few seasons with a national company. Same national-grade products, local owners. Here is what changes.

“I have been using Lawn Doctor for a few years and I am always satisfied with the service as well as the pricing. Most recently I had 1/3 of an acre aerated, seeded and fertilized for a very fair price. The technician did a great job and was very careful not to disturb flower beds while doing a very neat job. Would definitely recommend the service.”

“I’ve been using Lawn Doctor of Rockland-Pascack Valley-Saddle River for several years, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I originally switched to them after having a disappointing experience with another lawn care company.”

“James did a great job, thank you for putting grass seeds on some of the bare spots. Timing was perfect, it rained for a couple of days after 1st application. Thank you”

Written price. Same technician. A real person on the phone.

The only thing between the lawn you have and the lawn you want is a phone call.
