For a beautiful lawn...it's the EverGreen team

Here’s why homeowners are leaving their national chain lawn companies, and signing up with EverGreen Turf Solutions.

More homeowners are switching from national chain lawncare companies to the locally owned EverGreen Turf Solutions. And with no 2026 price increase and this team’s extensive knowledge of our region’s climate, soil, turf and weed species, now is an even better time to switch.


April is barely two weeks away, and soon our dormant lawns will awaken from their winter slumber and begin searching for essential nutrients to ensure they are thick and lush in the spring and summer.


And although dreaded crabgrass shows up later in summer, it, too, germinates in early spring, then lies in wait to attack our lawns in summer.


“This is why it’s so important to apply a preemergent—crabgrass control—early in the season, before the seeds germinate,” explains EverGreen Turf Solutions founder Correy Petz. “If you don’t take care of it now, you could have an explosion of stubborn crabgrass later.”


Correy should know. Unlike national chain lawn companies, he and his teams specialize in Northeast Ohio lawns—not those in Maine or Arizona. This is one reason more local homeowners switch each year from national companies to the locally owned EverGreen Turf Solutions.


Keeping your lawn green and lush requires careful attention, including applying the right fertilizers in the right quantities and at the right times, along with regular aeration to prevent soil compaction.

But first, just like a visit to your doctor, your lawn requires a diagnosis.


“That’s one of the biggest issues we see—other companies misdiagnosing turf issues, then treating the lawn all wrong,” Correy says. “We know our region’s climate, soil, turf, and weed species, and we know how to diagnose problems and recommend solutions that actually work.”


Another reason homeowners switch to EverGreen is customer service. That’s because with other competitors you often speak to a different person every time. “We don’t have that issue,” Correy assures. “We respect our employees, which is why we have a talented and stable staff. Many of our team members have been with us for years. So, you’ll almost always speak with someone familiar whenever you call and nearly always see the same technician each time on your property.”


Pricing Transparency

Another customer service issue with other companies is a lack of pricing transparency.


“Some companies give you a quote for an application but fail to tell you that the quote is not for the visit; it’s for each product applied during that visit. “If their single visit includes the application of two products, say, fertilizer plus weed control or grub control, your price just doubled,” Correy says. “We don’t do that. We charge you only for the visit, regardless of how many products we apply.”

 

Schedule Now

Evergreen Turf Solutions offers affordable packages that include five to six applications per season, but it’s wise to sign up now to ensure your lawn gets on the team’s schedule.


The company also handles aeration, weed treatments, lawn insect and disease control, and overseeding.

“When we overseed your lawn, we don’t use the amateur grass seed you find at big-box stores,” Correy says. “They’re loaded with filler. We use only professional-grade products in everything we do.”


Headquartered in Valley City, EverGreen Turf Solutions creates lush lawns all over throughout Northeast Ohio. Call or visit the company’s website for an instant quote.

    Unlike national chain price quotes that turn out to be “per product applied,” EverGreen’s prices are based on “per visit,” regardless of how many products are applied during that visit.
