Greensboro lawns face a unique mix of challenges: heavy Piedmont clay that holds water after every storm, scorching summer heat that stresses fescue, and chilly winters that slow root growth.
Without the right care, even the best yards can turn patchy and thin by midsummer. At The Green Team, we design lawn programs that work with Greensboro’s soil and seasons, not against them.

Our Lawn & Landscape Services in Greensboro, NC
Every lawn in Greensboro has its own story, different sun exposure, soil density, and grass type. That’s why The Green Team customizes each service to match your yard’s unique needs, ensuring year-round health and resilience in the Piedmont climate.
Lawn Care
Our 7-step lawn care program focuses on building healthy turf from the soil up. From spring fertilization to late-season winterization, each application strengthens root structure, improves color, and keeps weeds out naturally. You’ll notice the difference after just a few visits: denser grass, fewer bare spots, and soil that drains more evenly after rain.
Tree and Shrub Care
Our tree and shrub care program protects ornamentals from pests and nutrient loss throughout the year. We monitor for aphids, bagworms, and scale insects common in Triad landscapes and apply targeted feeding for healthy foliage and flowering.
Weed Control
Greensboro lawns battle weeds nearly year-round. We use pre-emergent applications in early spring to stop crabgrass before it sprouts, followed by post-emergent treatments to eliminate dandelion, clover, and chickweed later in the season. By strengthening turf density, we also reduce the chance for weeds to return.
Aeration and Seeding
In late summer or early fall, when fescue lawns are stressed from heat, we perform core aeration and seeding. Aeration breaks through compacted clay, and seeding introduces fresh, disease-resistant varieties that fill in thin areas before winter. The result? A thicker, greener yard by spring.
Fertilization
Lawn fertilization in Greensboro isn’t one-size-fits-all. We test and treat based on your soil’s nutrient balance, applying a custom blend of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium to match your turf type. Each application supports root growth, color, and resilience through heat and drought.
Disease Control
If you’ve seen brown patch or dollar spot creep across your lawn after a humid July, you know how fast fungus spreads here. Our disease control program uses targeted fungicides and preventive care tips, like proper mowing height and watering schedules, to protect your investment.
Mosquito Control
Our mosquito control keeps outdoor spaces comfortable all summer. We treat around shrubs, shaded areas, and standing-water spots where mosquitoes breed. Products are professionally applied and safe for kids and pets once dry, so you can enjoy your yard again.
Grub Control
White grubs feed on turf roots from late spring through early fall, leaving spongy, dead patches behind. Our preventive grub control stops larvae before they damage your lawn, keeping turf thick and strong all season.
Lime Treatment
Clay soil in the Triad tends to be acidic, which can block nutrient absorption. We apply lime treatments to correct pH levels, helping your lawn make the most of every fertilizer application and promoting healthier, deeper color.

Greensboro, NC Lawn Care FAQs
When is the best time to aerate and seed in Greensboro?
The best time for core aeration and overseeding in Greensboro is early fall, typically from September through mid-October. Cooler temperatures and consistent autumn rainfall create ideal conditions for fescue germination and root development before winter.
How often should my Greensboro lawn be fertilized?
Most Greensboro lawns thrive with fertilization every six to eight weeks during periods of active growth. The Green Team’s lawn care program follows this schedule, ensuring treatments align with seasonal soil and grass conditions.
How do I prevent brown patch and fungus?
Prevent brown patch and other fungal lawn issues with proper maintenance. Water in the morning, keep the grass at about three inches tall, and mow regularly to improve airflow. Preventive fungicide treatments can also stop fungus from spreading.
Is your mosquito control safe for pets and children?
Yes. Our mosquito control products are EPA-registered and applied by trained professionals. Once the treatment has dried—usually within 30 minutes—it’s safe for kids and pets to enjoy the yard again.
