Why Soil Testing Matters

Most lawn problems start underground. Poor grass growth, bare patches, and weed takeovers often point to imbalanced soil. Fertilizing without knowing what your soil actually needs can lead to waste—and more problems. That’s why soil testing has become a critical step for serious lawn care.

GreenTurf’s soil testing service examines pH levels, nutrient content, organic matter, and other key indicators. The results guide decisions on fertilization, soil amendments, and seeding strategies.

Lawn treatments without testing often rely on guesswork. Soil testing eliminates that uncertainty by identifying exactly what the lawn needs, helping to avoid unnecessary products and target the root of the problem.

What Customers Can Expect

The process is simple. A lawn care technician takes samples from different areas of the lawn and sends them to a certified lab. Results usually come back within 5 to 7 business days.

Once results are available, GreenTurf provides a clear, easy-to-read report with recommendations based on the specific needs of the soil.

Here’s what the test can uncover:

  • Deficiencies in key nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium
  • Imbalanced pH levels that block nutrient absorption
  • Excess salts or compaction that restrict root growth
  • Organic matter levels that affect soil structure

This data gives property owners a clear path forward. It takes the guesswork out of choosing fertilizers, improving soil health, and creating long-term lawn success.

Designed for All Lawn Types

GreenTurf’s soil testing service works for newly installed lawns, existing turf, and even problem areas where grass has stopped growing altogether. It’s suitable for both homeowners and commercial property managers.

Whether the goal is a lush front yard or a low-maintenance commercial landscape, understanding the soil is the first step. Recommendations are customized to lawn goals, turf types, and regional climate conditions.

Supporting Sustainable Lawn Care

Over-fertilizing doesn’t just hurt the lawn—it can also damage the environment. Nutrients that aren’t absorbed by grass roots often end up in runoff, affecting nearby water systems.

By using soil testing as a guide, GreenTurf supports smarter lawn care choices. The goal is to deliver the best results with the least impact. Applying only what’s needed helps reduce waste and protect natural resources.

Service Availability and Booking

Soil testing is available now in all GreenTurf service areas. Customers can request the service on its own or as part of a seasonal lawn care plan.

Appointments can be scheduled by phone or online through the company’s website. Pricing varies by lawn size, but most properties fall within standard rates. GreenTurf also offers follow-up services for applying amendments or starting lawn recovery plans.
