A THICKER, GREENER LAWN IN ROCHESTER
For over 26 years, Westside Professional Landscape has been caring for lawns across Monroe County — from shaded yards in Brighton to sun-baked corner lots in Gates. A healthy lawn isn't the result of one service; it's the product of mowing, feeding, weed control, aeration, and timely repair all working together across the season.
We handle every part of that program in-house. Our crews mow on a consistent schedule, our NYS DEC certified applicators run the 5-step fertilization and weed control program, and our specialists handle aeration, overseeding, grub protection, and lawn repair. One company, one point of contact, one thick green lawn.

OUR LAWN CARE SERVICES
Pick the services your lawn needs, or bundle the whole program for the best results.
WEEKLY MOWING & EDGING
Consistent mowing is the foundation of a great-looking lawn. Our crews mow on a predictable weekly schedule with sharp blades, clean edges along walkways and beds, and careful string-trimming around obstacles. We adjust height seasonally — taller in summer heat, closer in spring and fall — so grass stays healthy, not just cut. Mowing is delivered as part of our full landscape maintenance program.
- Weekly visits, same crew
- Sharp blades & clean edges
- Seasonal height adjustments
FERTILIZATION & WEED CONTROL
Our 5-Step Fertilization & Weed Control Program is a precisely timed sequence of applications designed for Western New York's climate and soils. Balanced fertilizer, pre- and post-emergent weed control, and a grub-control application included — all applied by NYS DEC certified technicians. 50% off your first treatment — just $58 for the average Rochester lawn. Full details on our 5-step program page.
- 5 precisely timed visits
- Crabgrass & broadleaf weed control
- Grub prevention included
CORE AERATION & OVERSEEDING
Rochester's clay-heavy soils compact under foot traffic, mower weight, and freeze-thaw cycles. Core aeration pulls small plugs of soil from your lawn, opening pathways for water, air, and nutrients to reach the root zone. Pair aeration with overseeding — a premium seed blend worked into fresh aeration holes — to thicken thin spots, crowd out weeds, and refresh older lawns. Early fall is the ideal window in Monroe County.
- Best performed in early fall
- Relieves compaction & thatch
- Fills thin spots with premium seed
GRUB CONTROL
Grubs — the larval stage of Japanese beetles, European chafers, and similar pests — are among the most destructive lawn pests in the Rochester area. They feed on grass roots and can kill large sections of lawn in a single season. We apply preventive grub control as part of our 5-step program and handle curative treatments when active infestations are found. Preventing grub damage costs a fraction of repairing it.
- Preventive application included in 5-step
- Curative treatment for active infestations
- Targets Japanese beetle & chafer grubs
LAWN REPAIR & RENOVATION
Grub damage, pet spots, dog tracks, heavy-equipment ruts, and general thin or bare areas — we repair all of it. Slit-seeding, topdressing, and spot repair for targeted areas; full renovation (dethatching, aeration, overseeding, starter fertilizer) for lawns that need a reset. For projects where seed just won't do, we also install sod. Most Rochester lawns benefit from a repair pass every few years.
- Spot repair & slit-seeding
- Full lawn renovation
- Sod installation available
SPRING & FALL CLEANUPS
A lawn care program works best on a clean canvas. Our spring cleanup removes winter debris, matted leaves, and dead growth so your grass wakes up cleanly and first-round fertilizer reaches the soil. Our fall cleanup clears leaves before they smother the turf, cuts back perennials, and prepares beds for winter. Both are critical in Rochester's four-season climate.
- Winter debris & leaf removal
- Bed & edge preparation
- Bundles with mowing contracts

Common Questions
FREQUENTLY ASKED
How much does professional lawn care cost in Rochester?
It depends on lawn size and which services you include. Weekly mowing typically runs a flat seasonal or per-visit rate based on property size. The 5-Step Fertilization & Weed Control program averages around $58 per treatment for a typical Rochester lawn (with 50% off your first treatment). Aeration, overseeding, and lawn repair are quoted as one-time services. We provide free on-site estimates — you'll see itemized pricing before any work starts.
Do I need to sign up for every service, or can I pick and choose?
Pick what your lawn needs. Many clients start with just the 5-Step Fertilization & Weed Control program, then add mowing or aeration as the lawn improves and they see the difference. Others want the full program from day one. There's no requirement to bundle — though bundling does simplify scheduling and often delivers better overall results because the services are timed to work together.
What's the difference between 'lawn care' and 'landscape maintenance'?
'Lawn care' focuses specifically on the turf — mowing, fertilization, weed control, aeration, grub protection, and repair. 'Landscape maintenance' is broader and includes beds, shrubs, mulch, pruning, seasonal cleanups, and flower rotations in addition to lawn work. Most Rochester homeowners need both. Our landscape maintenance program bundles them, or you can work with us on lawn care only.
When should I start lawn care service?
In Rochester, the earlier the better. Early spring (March/April) is the window for pre-emergent crabgrass control and the first fertilizer application — miss it and weeds are harder to manage all year. Mowing contracts are set up before the growing season ramps in late April. Aeration and overseeding are best in early fall (late August through September). That said, we can start a program mid-season and still deliver strong results — just contact us and we'll design the right approach for where you are in the year.
Are your lawn care products safe for kids and pets?
Yes. Our NYS DEC Commercial Pesticide Applicators use products at precisely calibrated rates and follow all safety guidelines. After an application, we recommend staying off treated areas until the products have dried or been watered in (typically a few hours). All product labels and safety data sheets are publicly available on our site so you can review exactly what we use.
