Lawn care in Yakima
Yakima's seasons change a lawn quickly, from hot dry summers to hard winters. Colonial's Yakima office has been looking after lawns for homes and businesses across the valley since 1985.
What we do on a Yakima lawn
The work follows the season. Spring starts with debris and the first feed, summer is cutting, weed control and watering checks, and fall brings leaf removal and the last application of the year.
Mowing and maintenance
regular mowing, precise edging and a thorough cleanup after each visit.
Lawn fertilization
programs matched to Yakima soil and grass.
Weed and pest management
treatments aimed at the weeds and insects that threaten the lawn, which keeps unneeded chemical use down.
Aeration and overseeding
relieves compaction so water, air and nutrients get to the roots, then fills thin areas.
Seasonal cleanup
debris in spring, leaves in autumn.
A plan built after we have seen the lawn
Every Yakima lawn has its own mix of shade, soil and sprinkler coverage. We evaluate the actual conditions and what you want from the yard, then set the plan. The Premium program is six applications from mid-February or March to mid-November, and Economy covers the first four.
All the materials we use are EPA approved, and under the federal label requirements children and pets are safe once the application has dried.
Yakima lawn questions
How often should I water my lawn?
Deep watering once or twice a week is the usual starting point, and we can help set a routine for your lawn.
Can you handle large commercial properties?
Yes. We have the crews and equipment for commercial lawn care in Yakima.
Do you clear leaves?
Yes. Fall leaf cleanup is its own service in the Yakima area.
Estimates and the crews
The Yakima office takes calls for the whole Yakima Valley. Estimates are done in person, and we can give a rough satellite figure first. Our crews are the ones in blue button-down shirts and charcoal pants, in white trucks with teal lettering.
