Fifty years ago, with one truck, Bob Koch Sr started his own tree care business. Koch Tree Services has been a cornerstone of Long Island's arboricultural community since 1958. In 2006, we became only the third arboricultural firm in the State of NY to be accredited by the Tree Care Industry Association. This means that we have met standards in safety, ethics and professionalism that only a small percentage of companies in the country are capable of meeting. By hiring a nationally accredited company, you are not only hiring a high-quality, multi-faceted tree care company, but you are also improving our industry by encouraging safe and proper arboricultural practices.

"Have hired this company a few times and I’m always happy with their work. Very safe practices and they leave the area nice and neat. The receptionist, estimator, and workers are always friendly and responsive."

Lawn Fertilization and Treatment questions, answered by experts

The best time to top dress your lawn depends on what type of grass you have and what climate you live in. Cool-season grass should be top dressed in late fall, while warm-season grass should be top dressed in late spring.

Custom fertilization considers grass type, soil condition, and climate, optimizing growth and reducing pests or diseases while improving overall landscape aesthetics.

Carpetgrass is a low-maintenance grass requiring little fertilization that thrives in subprime growing conditions. However, regular mowing is necessary to avoid the growth of unsightly seed stalks, and you may have to water it frequently to prevent drying out the soil. That includes watering the grass over dry winters to help keep it healthy, and it may start dying out in particularly cold climates where it grows poorly. Carpetgrass can also be vulnerable to some types of turf fungus, so it’s important not to overthatch. 

Bahia grass is not difficult to grow, but you might need patience for this slow-growing grass. Whereas some grass species, like Bermuda grass, can take 1 to 2 weeks to germinate, Bahia grass can take two or three times as long, making it seem like it won’t grow. But again, once your Bahia grass is established, it requires little maintenance. Its deep root system makes it a very durable grass that can bounce back after freezes and droughts. 

If your grass is stressed from being over-trimmed, try watering it heavily and then allowing it to recover for at least two weeks before mowing again. If you notice brown patches where the grass has died off because it’s too short, you should remove the dead grass and overseed the area. Leaving dead patches can invite weeds and other problems, so if you want a totally green lawn, getting rid of dead patches should include removing the dead sections before reseeding the area.
