Providing Lawn Fertilization Services

A lawn that is fertilized in the spring, at least once at the end of summer, and again in the fall will stay healthy and vibrant year-round.

Lawn fertilization supplies essential nutrients, encouraging strong growth during warmer months so that by winter, your lawn is prepared for rest and rejuvenation.

Thick, lush, weed-free grass enhances the beauty of your property—whether you're enjoying time outdoors with family or impressing visitors and customers.

Regular fertilization and garden maintenance ensure your lawn stays in top condition. However, soil profiles vary by location, and getting the right fertilizer blend is key. That’s where our expertise and attention to detail give your lawn the best possible care.

Why is it important to fertilize your lawn?

Your lawn needs nutrients for healthy growth, just like all living things. Lawns require more nutrients than they can typically absorb from the soil alone, especially after enduring long, harsh winters.

That’s where you, as a home or business owner, can help—with regular fertilization and weed control. An unfertilized lawn is unlikely to achieve that thick, lush, and vibrant look we all love.

Beneath the rich greenery of a well-fertilized lawn lies a stronger plant and root system, better equipped to withstand heat, cold, drought, and other environmental stresses.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should we fertilize?

We recommend fertilizing your lawn at least twice a year – once in the spring and once in the fall. For healthy summer growth, you may also want to consider early summer. If you have an irrigation system or water regularly, are on a weekly lawn mowing schedule, and also power rake and aerate your lawn yearly, fertilizing every six weeks throughout the growing season will deliver a thick, healthy, amazing looking lawn.

When should I fertilize my lawn?

We recommend making the first fertilizer application between March and early May, depending on how long the winter is. The snow should be completely thawed and all debris removed with a spring-time rake. Clearing the top-layer of thatch will ensure that the fertilizer can be directly applied to the top layer of soil. Repeat the fertilizer/weed control in the early summer and again in 5-6 weeks later. Do not over fertilize your lawn to avoid burning it. Fertilizing early in the summer provides your lawn with the nutrients it needs to properly deal with the extended periods of intense heat and lack of rain we’ve had in Calgary in recent years. It’s much easier to prevent problems than fix a lawn that is brown and dormant in the middle of the summer. Fertilizing your lawn in the fall provided it with the essential nutrients to prepare it for the long winter months ahead.

How long should we wait to water after fertilizing?

Wait one day after we fertilize your lawn before watering it. Be careful not to overwater your lawn as it may cause nutrients to leach into storm drains and eventually into our rivers. That’s no good for your lawn or anything else. We use high-quality, slow-release fertilizer that shouldn’t ever burn your lawn but any fertilizer will do more harm than good if it is left on your grass without water for extended periods in dry heat. For that reason, it might be best to book our lawn fertilization service before a period of rain is forecast.

Is Michael brothers lawn fertilizer pet-friendly and kid-friendly?

Yes. Both the fertilizers and weed control applications we use are safe, pet-friendly and kid-friendly. After you water the lawn the day after we fertilize it, your lawn will be ready for you and your family to enjoy.
