FAQ
Are Your Products Safe for My Children and Pets?
The products Top Lawn uses are pet and children friendly. If you follow our instructions and keep children and pets off for two hours or until dry, you won’t have a problem. All Top Lawn programs are lake safe as well.
Do I Have to Be Home While You Treat My Lawn?
There’s no need to be home during a treatment. It takes less than one minute to treat a thousand square feet of lawn, so we’re only there for a short time.
Do I Have to Sign Up for Services Every Year?
No. Just like other common household services, Top Lawn will continue to treat your lawn until you ask us to stop. If you want to cancel services at any time, give us a call.
Do You Guarantee Your Services?
Absolutely! Our treatment programs come with guaranteed results. If you ever have a concern, a Top Lawn manager is available to address the concern at no charge – typically 24-hours after receiving the request.
Does Top Lawn Offer an Organic Program?
Yes, we do! Top Lawn uses the highest-quality organic-based fertilizer. All applications are lake safe, and lawn technicians are state of Michigan certified. We offer a few different organic program options. Because there is no such thing as weed control that is fully and completely organic, our 100 percent organic programs do not include weed control. If you wish to have weed control included in your organic program, please request this at the time of sign-up.
How Do I Get Rid of Crabgrass?
Crabgrass is an annual weedy grass that germinates in the summer and dies with the first frost in the fall. The best prevention is a dense, healthy lawn. For lawns that have an abundance of crabgrass, a preventive application in the early spring will prevent about 90 percent of the weed from appearing. Those few plants that do make it up can be hand-pulled or treated later in the summer before they go to seed. If you’re not using Top Lawn, give us a call, and crabgrass will be a thing of the past. 248-560-4727
How Do I Pay for Services?
After each service, we will leave an invoice on your door. Upon receiving your invoice, payment is due 15 days after. You can make payments online, over the phone, or by mail. We accept all major credit cards. If payment is not received within 30 days upon receiving your invoice, a late fee will be incurred. Top Lawn also offers auto-pay, installments, and prepay options. Please call the office at 248-560-4727 to make payment arrangements.
How Long Do I Have to Wait to Mow My Lawn After an Application?
You can mow your lawn directly after. Treatment results will not be affected by mowing.
How Many Applications Will Top Lawn Apply to My Lawn?
Since services are aimed to fulfill the requirements of your unique lawn, there is no specific amount of applications that work for everyone. Top Lawn does not use the basis of one-size-fits-all programs. In our years of experience, we have found a lawn typically requires five to seven applications each year. This will give you a happy, healthy lawn we both can be proud of.
If the Weather is Bad, Will My Treatment Be Pushed Back to a Later Date?
Please don’t worry if an application seems to be delayed. Weather plays a big part in when and where we treat. Our materials are blended for our Michigan climate and your lawn will most definitely be treated within the proper time frame.
Should I Bag the Clippings When I Mow My Lawn?
No, Top Lawn does not recommend doing so. Returning clippings evenly to the lawn (no heavy clumping) returns valuable nutrients to your yard.
Why Do I Have Brown Spots on My Lawn?
Diagnosing the proverbial “brown spot” in a lawn can drive even a seasoned professional crazy. There are just so many things that can cause the lawn to turn brown and die. If you’re a Top Lawn customer, we will send out a trained service technician to look at your lawn for free. If you’re not currently a Top Lawn customer, what are you waiting for? Top Lawn is the highest rated lawn care company in Oakland County, Michigan. Give us a call at 248-560-4727. The bottom line is this: There are too many different things that may cause a brown spot on a lawn. Take the time needed to properly diagnose the problem before jumping in. You’ll be glad you did.
