Fall lawn care in Minnetonka

Fall Lawn Care in Minnetonka, MN

Leaf clean up, core aeration, over seeding, fall fertilizer and gutter cleaning for Minnetonka yards before the snow flies.

Setting Minnetonka lawns up for winter

Fall is the most important season for a Minnesota lawn, and Minnetonka is no exception. Aerating, seeding and feeding the grass in September and October builds roots under the snow, and that is why a lawn comes back thick in April. Peter Doran Lawn has run fall routes through Hennepin County since 1993.

Our custom leaf vacuum system clears heavy leaf cover quickly, and gutter cleaning is done on the same visit so water runs away from the house all winter. Many Minnetonka customers schedule two leaf clean ups, one in mid fall and a final clean up after the trees are bare.

The same crews also handle fall lawn care for Minnetrista, Mound and New Hope, so Minnetonka customers are never a special trip.

Fall lawn care in Minnetonka: common questions

When is the best time to aerate in Minnetonka?

Early September through mid October, while the soil is warm and the grass is still growing. Aeration and over seeding together give the best results.

How many leaf clean ups do I need?

One final clean up after the leaves are down is the minimum. Properties with mature oaks and maples in Minnetonka usually book two, so the lawn is never smothered.

Can the fall clean up include the beds?

Yes. Cutting back perennials, clearing beds and a last edge can all be added to the estimate.
