What's different about lawns in Delphi?

Delphi is the Carroll County seat, northeast of Lafayette, with a courthouse square historic district and a rewatered stretch of the Wabash & Erie Canal running through town.

Established towns tend to have big, mature trees, which means shade in summer and a heavy layer of leaves in fall. Leaves left on the grass over winter smother it, so get them off before the snow, and plan fall feeding and overseeding while the soil is still warm. Our shop is about 13 miles away, roughly 30 minutes by road.

What lawn services do we offer in Delphi?

Fertilization and weed control

Custom-blended fertilizer for high-pH Indiana soil, a two-part crabgrass program, and broadleaf treatments for dandelions, clover and thistle. Every 4 to 6 weeks, March through November.

Aeration and overseeding

Fall core aeration opens up compacted soil, and we seed right into the holes with a tall fescue blend built for Indiana. Between August 15 and the end of September only.

Grub, insect and disease protection

One late-spring application stops grubs, billbugs, chinch bugs and armyworms through fall. Technicians also watch for brown patch, dollar spot and red thread on every visit.

Outdoor pest control

Mosquito, flea and tick treatments for the yard, and a perimeter barrier for the house. Five visits a season from mid-April.

Sprinkler and irrigation service

Sprinkler system startup, audits, backflow testing and winterization in three yearly packages, plus repairs when something breaks.

Questions Delphi homeowners ask us

How far is Delphi from your shop?

Our shop is at 8823 E 100 N in Lafayette, about 13 miles from Delphi, roughly 30 minutes by road. Delphi (46923) is in our service area. If you're not sure about your address, send it with your quote request and we'll tell you.

Is lawn care worth it on a small-town lot?

Yes. Packages are priced by lawn size, so a small lot costs less, and a tidy lawn is most of a small house's curb appeal.

Why is my lawn full of weeds every spring?

Because nothing stopped the seeds that were already in the soil. Pre-emergent in early spring and again in fall, plus treatments through the season, is how you finally get ahead.

Will the products be safe for my dog and kids?

Yes, once dry, usually within 1 to 2 hours.
