Lawn-A-Mat knows every lawn has unique needs but is similar in terms of soil and grass varieties to others in the same geographical area. That's why we developed the Greenskeeper Program.
The Greenskeeper Program is not basic. It is a complete program that can provide all the materials your lawn needs to become beautiful given the right conditions. That's why we've been the preferred lawn care provider in Bergen and Passaic Counties in New Jersey and Orange & Rockland Counties in New York for over 50 years.
The program consists of six applications with optional services that help protect your property and family from dangerous pests such as ticks and fleas. It will also enhance the beauty of your grass and make for a luscious green healthy lawn.
If your property poses special challenges, we are there to help you determine the best approach to make your lawn a pleasure to come home to.
Also included as standard are extras that other companies offer at an additional cost. We include Grub & Chinch Bug Control, Limestone Winterizer, a second pre-emergent crabgrass application, and second insect control.
Check out the details of each of our program features below and remember, we offer no-cost estimates on all of them. You're just an email or a phone call away from having a beautiful lawn!

You spend lots of time and money watering your grass, but it just doesn't look as nice as the lawn next door. Chances are that's because the lawn next door is serviced by Lawn-A-Mat.

Weeds. They find their way into your lawn and ruin your hard work. They’re stubborn and unwanted and if left to their own devices, will take over your yard in the blink of an eye. There are hundreds of species with different life cycles just waiting for their turn to damage the look of your lawn and property. So while you breathe a sigh of relief that Winter snow has killed them off, some like Chickweed, just go dormant and return to life as soon as Spring hits.
Are you worried about ticks? We have the answer for that, too! our optional tick and flea reduction service can give you peace of mind by protecting your family and pets from these dangerous pests.
Then there's the problem of Grubs and Chinch bugs. These are often the two most damaging insects in your home lawn. Either one can literally destroy your lawn in a matter of days.
Combine weeds and insects and you have a recipe for disaster. Luckily, Lawn-A-Mat can help prevent this awful scenario.
We understand weeds and insects and how to control them. After all, we’ve been in the business of keeping your lawn healthy since 1961. Our solutions can provide relief from all these unwanted pests.
Our Owners will personally visit your property to perform a no-cost estimate of how to control your lawn's weed and insect problem, determine the best course of action to follow. We will explain the details of the treatment and then, with your approval, begin your lawn's path back to health.
The best time of year to seed is the Fall after the stresses of Summer have passed. Give your grass seed a higher germination rate and more successful growth by keeping it moist for 2-3 weeks.
Spike Seeding
Lawn-A-Mat will perforate your entire lawn with a spike seeding machine. This machine produces holes that capture the tiny grass seeds, keeping them in contact with the soil where they'll have the best chance of germination and protection from the wind, animals, and runoff.
When seeding is done in the Fall, the result is thicker, healthier grass that is more mature before the onset of activity on your lawn the following Summer. Spike Seeding is one more way Lawn-A-Mat makes your lawn beautiful.
Overseeding
In areas where spike seeding is not an option, we can overseed to help thicken your lawn. Lawn-A-Mat uses the proper seed varieties for the specific conditions of your property.
According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC) in 2015, 95% of all confirmed Lyme disease cases were reported from 14 states. New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania were on that list and in 2016 the problem in those states just worsened. The CDC reported over 3,300 cases in New Jersey alone, over 2,600 in New York and a whopping 9,000 cases in Pennsylvania.
The problem is so bad that the CDC actually recommends treating your lawn to create Tick-safe Zones to reduce the number of these dangerous insects.
Lawn-A-Mat tackles these pests by offering Tick and Flea Reduction from late Spring to late Summer.
We provide a no-cost estimate which outlines the best solution to reduce your risk and with your approval, apply the best value solution. Protect your family, your pets and your lawn with Lawn-A-Mat Tick and Flea Reduction.
