Lawn Maintenance Services

Professional lawn maintenance with regular mowing, edging, and trimming plus seasonal treatments. Customized fertilization programs, weed control, aeration, and overseeding for thick, healthy turf.

Why Choose Cruger Contracting for Lawn Maintenance

Cruger Contracting LLC provides professional lawn maintenance programs that combine science, consistency, and craftsmanship. Our services include weekly mowing with sharp, well-calibrated equipment, string trimming, and edging for sharp, manicured borders. We use proper mowing heights to encourage deep roots and prevent stress, and alternate mowing patterns to reduce compaction and promote even growth.

Our annual care programs include precise, seasonal treatments: spring fertilization and pre-emergent weed control, summer feedings for sustained color, mid-season spot treatments, fall aeration and overseeding, and late-fall nutrient storage for winter survival. Each visit concludes with full cleanup and inspection.

With Cruger Contracting LLC, homeowners get more than maintenance—they get year-round lawn management backed by reliable scheduling, skilled technicians, and local expertise that understands New York lawns.
