How We Treat Dollar Spot
Targeted Solutions for Fast Recovery
When dollar spot appears, timing is everything. Our technicians apply proven curative treatments that stop the fungus at its source and prevent further damage. Once the disease is under control, we help your lawn bounce back with services designed to rebuild density and resilience:
Fertilization to restore nutrients and fuel regrowth.
Core Aeration to loosen soil so air, water, and nutrients reach the roots.
Overseeding with premium seed blends to fill in thinned or damaged areas.
Together, these steps give your lawn the strength to recover quickly and stay healthy long after treatment.

Go From Brown Patches to Backyard Pride
Dollar spot isn’t just about how your lawn looks.
Bare patches make it harder to fully enjoy your space. With treatment, your grass becomes a soft, even surface again — perfect for kids running barefoot, backyard games, or quiet evenings outside. Instead of worrying about thinning spots, you get a lawn that’s ready for real life.
Tips to Prevent Dollar Spot
Treatment stops the fungus, but prevention keeps it away.
Here’s how you can help protect your turf:
Fertilize regularly to strengthen grass and improve natural defenses.
Aerate and overseed annually to keep soil healthy and turf dense.
Water deeply but infrequently to encourage deep roots without creating a damp environment where fungus thrives.
