In Mt Lebanon, the lawn is part of the curb appeal. Tree lined streets, brick homes, and sloped front yards are what people notice when they drive through. When the grass thins, weeds creep in, and bare spots show on the hill by the sidewalk, the whole property feels a little tired.

Kapp’s Lawn provides lawn care services in Mt Lebanon, PA for homeowners who want a yard that matches the look of the neighborhood without spending every weekend chasing problems.

Our Lawn Care Services in Mt Lebanon

Fertilization & Soil Health

Many Mt Lebanon lawns are built on older, compacted soil. Water can sit at the bottom of a slope after storms, then the ground dries out and cracks. Grass roots struggle in that constant swing.

We adjust timing and products based on how your lawn responds, not just a generic schedule.

Our fertilization and soil health work is designed to:

  • Feed cool season grasses that thrive in western Pennsylvania
  • Encourage deeper roots so turf can handle foot traffic and dry periods
  • Build thicker grass that naturally leaves less room for weeds

Weed Control

Walk through Mt Lebanon in late spring and you will see what your yard is up against. Crabgrass along sidewalks and driveways, dandelions in older turf, clover in thin spots, and plantain or other broadleaf weeds in tough corners.

Over time, as the grass thickens, weeds find fewer gaps to take over.

 

We handle weeds with:

  • Pre emergent treatments that help prevent many annual weeds
  • Spot and blanket applications for broadleaf and grassy weeds that show up

Core Aeration & Overseeding

Hills, dogs, kids, and mowers all compact soil. On Mt Lebanon’s slopes, water may run off instead of soaking in, and roots stay shallow.

In Mt Lebanon, early fall is usually the ideal time to aerate and seed. Warm soil and cooler nights help new grass root before winter.

 

Aeration and overseeding help by:

  • Pulling small plugs from the soil so air, water, and nutrients reach the root zone
  • Relieving compaction along walkways, slopes, and play areas
  • Giving new seed a place to settle and fill in bare or thin sections

Pest & Grub Control

If patches of lawn fade in odd shapes, feel spongy, or peel back easily, grubs or other turf insects may be feeding on roots.

We show you what we find so you understand every recommendation.

 

We can:

  • Inspect damaged areas to confirm whether insects are present
  • Apply preventative treatments during key times of the year
  • Treat active problems and pair that with seeding and aftercare guidance

Lime Treatment (As Needed)

When soil is too acidic, fertilizer never fully delivers the color and growth you expect. The lawn always looks a step behind.

If your pH looks good, we skip lime and focus on what will actually move the needle.

 

 

If a soil test suggests it will help, lime can:

  • Move pH closer to the range cool season turf prefers
  • Improve nutrient availability from fertilizer
  • Support better color and density in stubborn areas

Best Grass Types for Mt Lebanon, PA

Mt Lebanon is classic cool season turf country. Blends of grasses handle winters, humid summers, and partial shade under street trees better than any single variety.

We choose seed based on how much sun your lawn gets, the grade, and how your family uses the yard.

Most lawns do well with mixes that include:

  • Kentucky bluegrass for dense, traditional turf
  • Perennial ryegrass for quick germination and repair
  • Tall fescue for deeper roots and strong performance on sunny slopes
  • Fine fescue for shade along side yards and under trees
