Lawn Fertilization

Lawn Fertilization Services in Northern Virginia

A healthy lawn starts beneath the surface. At Simply Turf, our lawn fertilization program is designed to build strong roots, improve soil health, and promote steady, natural growth throughout the year. We use premium, organic-based fertilizer blends specifically formulated for Northern Virginia lawns and local growing conditions. Our approach focuses on long-term results rather than short-term cosmetic fixes. By feeding the soil as well as the grass, we help lawns grow thicker, greener, and more resilient season after season.

Why Professional Lawn Fertilization Matters

Lawns in Northern Virginia face a unique combination of clay-heavy soils, temperature swings, and seasonal stress. Without proper nutrition, grass becomes thin, weak, and more vulnerable to weeds, drought, and disease. Our fertilization program provides balanced, slow-release nutrients that support healthy growth without excessive top growth or burn. Each application is timed to match your lawn’s natural growth cycle, ensuring nutrients are available when your grass needs them most.

Our Fertilization Approach

Simply Turf uses organic-based, slow-release fertilizers that improve soil biology while delivering consistent nutrition to the turf. These products encourage deeper root development, better color, and improved stress tolerance. Our licensed technicians apply treatments at carefully selected times throughout the year to support spring green-up, maintain strength during summer heat, and prepare the lawn for winter dormancy and the following growing season. All products are applied responsibly and are safe for families and pets once dry.

What to Expect from Our Lawn Fertilization Program

In spring, fertilization supports root growth and early season recovery after winter dormancy. During summer, applications focus on maintaining strength and resilience through heat and dry conditions. In fall, fertilization helps rebuild energy reserves, strengthen roots, and set the foundation for a healthier lawn the following year. Over time, customers typically notice thicker turf, improved color, fewer bare areas, and a lawn that responds better to watering and weed control.

We take a science-based, local approach to lawn care. Our fertilization programs are built around Northern Virginia soils, turf types, and climate patterns—not generic, one-size-fits-all schedules. By combining premium products with proper timing and trained technicians, we deliver consistent results while protecting the long-term health of your lawn. Whether you’re maintaining an established yard or working to improve problem areas, lawn fertilization is a foundational part of a successful turf care program.

Do I need to do anything after a fertilizer application?

You can water the fertilizer to activate it faster, but it’s not required. We recommend staying off the lawn for 2 hours after an application to let the products dry completely.

What makes your fertilizer different?

Our proprietary organic-based fertilizers slowly release nutrients over 10–12 weeks, improving your lawn’s health and soil quality while reducing environmental impact. We work with university Agronomists to develop and fine tune our fertilizer blends based on soil testing.

How will I know when you're coming for service?

We notify you via email the Friday before your scheduled service week and again the morning of your service. We ask that you unlock any gates and remove obstructions from the lawn to allow our technicians to efficiently service your property.

Are your products safe for kids & pets?

Yes, all our products are EPA-approved and safe for kids and pets when used as directed. Our technicians are all licensed by the state of Virginia to safely apply these products.

How do I know the program is right for my lawn?

All of our services have been designed specifically for Northern Virginia lawns. Our technicians are trained to make recommendations for special circumstances for your property should they exist.

Do I need to be home during service?

No, you don’t need to be home. We will complete the work as scheduled and leave a door hanger and yard sign. You will also receive a post-service email that will contain any special instructions should there be any.

Do I have to sign a contract for your services?

No, all our services are contract-free. You pay as you go.
