Pre-season prepayment discounts. Online payment options Special help when you need it. With Shamrock Lawn Service, you never face lawn problems alone. If something unexpected happens to your lawn, simply call us, and we'll dispatch a Shamrock specialist to take care of the problem.

"Shamrock has shown a high level of service, attention, and professionalism by: - Responding to my request for a quote (5 of 8 calls to to other services yielded no reply). - Visiting my yard to prepare the quote (the other services who replied did not) - Providing a quote which included observations and analysis of our lawn, such as grass varieties, weed types, insect problems. - Recommending needed services and not recommending ones not required (it was too late for a pre-emergent crabgrass, and insect control was not needed as no problems were observed) - Having a staffed office or an answering service to take my messages when I had questions and wanted to confirm proceeding with the service. My calls were returned within one or two days. - Sending a friendly "lawn care guy" to do the work who let us know what he was doing and went about it quickly. - Blowing off pellet fertilizer from the sidewalk and driveway where it had spread beyond the lawn. - Leaving a description of the work completed in the front door, with short-term recommendations about cutting, watering, or pets. - Having a secure, easy-to-use web site which allows on-line payment. They offer a discount for pre-payment of the full season."

Lawn Sense offers traditional and organic-based lawn care programs throughout the Greater Pittsburgh Area. Locally owned and operated since 1997, we pride ourselves on providing outstanding customer service.

"So far not good. Very poor communication. I think my mistake was paying them in advance. They have NO urgency to help me since they already got their money. Maybe would have been better to pay as you go, then at least they would only receive payment when they visit. Was told two weeks ago they would be stopping out, and nothing. Last time I had to request a full refund, and surprise, they came out the next day."

Lawn Fertilization and Treatment questions, answered by experts

One of the best ways to save money on lawn care is to sign up for an annual contract for ongoing service rather than paying for one-off or as-needed services. If you guarantee a landscaping company ongoing work, they’re more likely to give you a break on the cost. Plus, ongoing services will keep your property in tip-top shape and help avoid the high cost of playing catch up on an overgrown lawn. You can also save money by sticking to the basics and foregoing add-on services like weeding and pest treatments.

Water your yard a little more deeply after a drought for about two weeks (while still avoiding overwatering). Continue to water in the early morning hours before 10 a.m. You'll also want to invest in some high-quality fertilizer to get more nutrients to your roots and help them grow back stronger and quicker. Look up your grass and soil type, or do a soil test, to see what type of fertilizer you need.

Apply fertilizer in early spring and late summer to promote robust growth through the seasons.

Sulfur makes grass greener as it creates a rich, healthy growing environment. It can help reduce the pH level in the soil to ensure the roots can get all the nutrients they need, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Sulfur also makes grass denser, lusher, and stronger. It’s a soil amendment that can make a big difference in the health and appearance of your lawn.

There are a few ways to fix your lawn on a budget, including:

  • Identify the lawn care problem and learn how to seed, fertilize, and aerate your lawn. 

  • Reseed old, damaged lawn with new grass that fares better in your environment. 

  • Remove grass from your yard so you no longer need to worry about lawn care costs.
