Middle Tennessee's only UT Certified lawn treatment specialists. 8 visits a year, 4 fungicide rounds included, zero surprise upsells.
Why Hillcrest
The treatment plan built for your ground
Every Eagleville lawn gets the same 8-visit rhythm — it's what Tennessee's subtropical transition demands. What changes is the inputs: ammonium sulfate vs urea, different herbicide selection, rates matched to your soil test. Same 8 visits. Different lawn. Same beautiful result.
Local Expertise
Why Hillcrest lawns are unique
Hillcrest, with your larger properties and full sun exposure, your lawns are set up to thrive, but that same open environment brings unique challenges that require a specialized approach.
Living in Hillcrest means enjoying that great rural view, but it also means your lawn borders pastures or hay fields, which are a constant source of new weed seed like crabgrass and dallisgrass. Combine that with our intense sun, and you have a perfect environment for lawn disease pressure that many homeowners don't even see coming. Most lawn services here operate on a reactive model, waiting for brown patch or dollar spot to show up and then trying to sell you an expensive cure. I built my service plan differently. Every Hillcrest home on my program gets preventative fungicide applications included, starting in May, because I know that skipping it guarantees an unhappy lawn. You're not just paying for eight visits; you're paying for a compounding strategy where what we do in the fall directly builds your lawn's strength for the brutal Eagleville summer. My flat monthly rate covers everything the lawn needs, including free service calls, so you never get a surprise bill or a skipped critical service. For larger properties like yours, this consistent, expert approach prevents the slow decline that leads to costly renovations. My philosophy is one standard of care for everyone, which means your neighbors here in Hillcrest get the same focused program I'd use on my own yard, built on real agronomic science, not marketing tiers.

What's Actually Included
Comprehensive Coverage — What Your Hillcrest Plan Actually Includes
Calling this "four services" would undersell it. Your Hillcrest plan covers every category of threat a Middle Tennessee lawn faces — timed across 8 visits because that's what the transition zone demands.
- Pre-emergent: summer annuals blocked in February/March, winter annuals blocked in September/October
- Post-emergent herbicide matched to what's visible — different chemistry for annuals vs perennials, different rates for different temperatures
- Summer perennials suppressed: Johnson grass, dallisgrass, common bermuda, wild violets, nutsedge
- 4-round fungicide program on 28-day cycle: brown patch, dollar spot, pythium blight, leaf spot
- Insect coverage standard: grubs, armyworms, chinch bugs — no separate upsell
- Slow-release, foliar liquid, and instant-release fertilizer applied at different points in the year — timed to what the lawn needs
- Soil-test-customized inputs — ammonium sulfate where sulfur is low, urea where nitrogen leaches, no phosphorus where it's not needed

Every Hillcrest lawn gets the same comprehensive coverage — but with inputs and rates tuned to YOUR soil test. What changes is the chemistry selection, not the level of care.
Your 8-Visit Annual Plan
Your Hillcrest lawn follows this 8-visit rhythm
Every visit is timed to Middle Tennessee's climate using historical weather data, not a generic calendar.
February – early March
Pre-emergent pass 1 + granular spring fertilizer + winter weed cleanup
You'll see: Pre-emergent pass 1 locks the summer-weed gate. Granular spring fertilizer wakes the fescue without pushing too hard — we save the heavy nitrogen for fall where it matters most. Any leftover winter weeds get cleaned up.
Late March – April
Pre-emergent booster (liquid) + granular fertilizer + post-emergent spot treatment
You'll see: Pre-emergent booster (liquid) backs up the first pass through the critical March 15th emergence window. Granular fertilizer continues the measured spring push. Any early summer annuals that broke through get post-emergent spot treatment.
May
Fungicide round 1 (propiconazole) + summer weed control
You'll see: Propiconazole suppresses brown patch heading into the fungal pressure window AND hits Bermuda, wild violets, and early dallisgrass invasion. Summer annual weed control (crabgrass, goosegrass, nutsedge) rides along.
June
Fungicide round 2 (28-day cycle) + perennial grassy weed suppression
You'll see: The 28-day cycle continues because Middle TN dew keeps turf wet 12 hours a day. Perennial grassy weeds — Johnson grass, dallisgrass, common bermuda — get weakened while they're actively growing in the heat.
July
Fungicide round 3 + foliar liquid fertilizer (iron + peptides) + grub and armyworm watch
You'll see: Peak dew plus heat means peak disease pressure. A foliar-applied liquid fertilizer — chelated iron for color without forcing growth, peptides for stress recovery, a touch of slow-delivery nitrogen. Grub and armyworm activity monitored. Protection is included standard, not an add-on.
August
Fungicide round 4 + foliar liquid fertilizer + seeding quotes issued
You'll see: Last scheduled fungicide round of the summer. Foliar liquid fertilizer (iron + peptides + touch of N) keeps color through the worst stress window. Seeding quotes go out to fall customers. Common Bermuda invasion gets suppression treatment.
September – October
100% slow-release fall fertilizer + seed-safe weed control; seeding visit if signed up
You'll see: 100% slow-release fall fertilizer — this is the visit that sets up next year. Seed-safe pre- and post-emergent weed control. Poa annua control starts here — hit early before it overwinters and sets seed. If you signed up for core aeration + overseeding, that work happens on this visit with gold-tag-certified turf-type tall fescue.
November – December
Instant-release fall fertilizer + winter-annual weed kill
You'll see: Instant-release fall fertilizer — carbohydrates go into the root system before dormancy, not top-growth. Winter annuals (chickweed, henbit, hairy bittercress) eliminated before they set seed. This is the real kill shot on overwintering weeds.
