As summer kicks into full swing in the Upstate, it’s the perfect time to give your outdoor space the care it needs to look its best and handle the heat. Whether you want to entertain, relax, or just enjoy your view, Davis Yard Works, LLC offers everything you need to start summer off right.
Here’s our list of essential early-summer services — and why now is the time to schedule them.

1. Lawn Mowing & Edging
A clean-cut lawn with sharp edges boosts curb appeal and encourages healthy grass growth. Weekly or biweekly mowing keeps grass strong, lush, and weed-resistant.
Why it matters: Summer growth is rapid. A regular mowing schedule promotes dense grass and deters pests and diseases.

2. Mulch Refresh & Seasonal Flowers
Fresh mulch improves the look of your beds, retains moisture, and helps fight off weeds. Adding seasonal flowers like petunias or marigolds brings vibrant color to your yard.
Why it matters: South Carolina heat dries soil fast. Mulch keeps roots cool and moist, saving water and supporting healthy plants.

3. Fertilization & Weed Control
Our nutrient-rich fertilizers support strong root development and a greener lawn. We also apply safe, effective weed treatments to stop invasive species before they take over.
Why it matters: Summer is peak growing season. Fertilizing now ensures a lush lawn through July and August, while weed control keeps your yard clean and manageable.

4. Shrub Trimming & Hedge Pruning
Shaping your shrubs and hedges not only looks great — it also keeps them healthy and free from pests and disease.
Why it matters: Early summer pruning helps control size and stimulates fuller growth throughout the season.

5. Aeration & Spot Seeding
If your lawn is patchy or compacted, aeration and overseeding can restore life to tired turf. We recommend this as needed in problem areas.
Why it matters: Healthy roots start with airflow and nutrients. Addressing bald spots now prevents bigger issues later.

6. Irrigation System Checks
We inspect and adjust your sprinkler systems to ensure efficient watering without overuse or runoff.
Why it matters: Prevent high water bills and yellow spots. A tuned system keeps your lawn hydrated and thriving.
