Lexington, MA’s distinct New England climate brings a variety of lawn care challenges throughout the year. Winters often mean heavy snowfall and the use of road salt, which can damage turf along driveways and sidewalks in neighborhoods like Follen Heights and Meriam Hill. As spring transitions to summer, lawns in areas near Lincoln Park or along the Minuteman Bikeway may face drought stress and soil compaction, especially on shaded lots beneath Lexington’s mature maples and oaks. Sloped properties, common in the Turning Mill area, are particularly susceptible to soil erosion after heavy rains. Homeowners must also consider the impact of local ordinances and best practices for sustainable landscaping, as outlined by the Official website of the City of Lexington. By understanding these local factors, we provide tailored solutions that keep your lawn healthy and beautiful all year long.
