    Typical lawn size in Norfolk 2,568 sq. ft.
    Dominant grass types in Norfolk Warm and cool grasses like tall fescue, Kentucky bluegrass, Bermuda grass, and zoysia grass
    Typical soil pH for Norfolk lawns 5.9, which is slightly acidic

    Key soil nutrients in Norfolk lawns Phosphorus: 143.5 ppm, Potassium: 92.0 ppm, Calcium: 1,207.0 ppm, Iron: 210.0 ppm

    Norfolk lawns have unique characteristics that shape local lawn care practices. The typical Norfolk lawn spans about 2,500 square feet and grows both warm and cool-season grasses like tall fescue and Bermuda grass. The soil is mostly sandy with some silt, which affects how you approach lawn care in Norfolk.

    The slightly acidic soil pH of 5.9 means Virginia homeowners should monitor their soil regularly with a soil test. While Norfolk soil has decent nutrient levels, sandy soil can lose nutrients quickly. Here's what this means for your lawn care routine:

    • Water more frequently but in shorter sessions since sandy soil drains quickly
    • Apply fertilizer in smaller, more frequent doses to prevent nutrient loss
    • Add organic matter through grass clippings and lawn care products to improve soil structure
    • Check your customized plan for the right timing of fertilizer applications based on your specific grass type and soil conditions

      Norfolk, Virginia FAQs

      The best time to start lawn care in Norfolk, VA is early spring, typically March, when soil temperatures reach around 55°F. This allows you to address winter damage and prepare for the growing season. Apply pre-season fertilizer, control early weeds, and begin regular mowing as grass growth increases.

      When choosing lawn care in Norfolk, consider these key factors: climate-specific expertise for the coastal Virginia region, service frequency aligned with warm-season grass needs, and cost-effectiveness. Sunday's customized plans start at $55 and include fertilizer, soil testing, and expert support - typically more affordable than traditional services.

      Here are essential lawn care tips for Norfolk, VA:

      1. Mow tall at 3-4 inches to promote deeper roots and drought tolerance
      2. Water deeply but infrequently (1-1.5 inches per week) in early morning
      3. Overseed warm-season grasses in late spring when soil temperatures reach 65-70°F
      4. Apply fertilizer based on soil test results during key growth periods
      5. Control weeds through proper mowing height and spot-treating problem areas
      6. Aerate clay soils in early fall to reduce compaction
      7. Remove no more than 1/3 of grass blade length when mowing

      Mow your Norfolk lawn every 5-7 days during peak growing season (April-October) and every 10-14 days during slower growth periods. Adjust frequency based on growth rate and never remove more than 1/3 of the grass blade length in a single mowing.

      In Norfolk, traditional lawn care services average $45-75 per visit or $150-200 monthly for a standard quarter-acre lot. Sunday's custom lawn plans start at $55 per season with multiple shipments of fertilizer and optional add-ons like weed control and grass seed - making it a more cost-effective choice for DIY lawn care.

      For a healthy Norfolk lawn:

      • Test soil pH and nutrients annually
      • Fertilize in early spring, late spring, and fall
      • Water deeply 1-1.5 inches weekly in early morning
      • Keep grass height at 3-4 inches
      • Address weeds promptly with spot treatments
      • Core aerate compacted soil in fall
      • Dethatch if thatch exceeds 0.5 inches
      • Monitor for fungal issues due to humidity

      Sunday's customized plans provide soil testing, fertilizer, and expert guidance tailored to Norfolk's climate and growing conditions.

      Common lawn pests in Norfolk include:

      • Chinch bugs that cause brown patches in sunny areas
      • Armyworms that feed on grass blades
      • Grubs that damage grass roots
      • Fire ants that build mounds
      • Mole crickets that tunnel through soil
      • Sod webworms that create brown patches

      Monitor regularly and address pest issues promptly with targeted treatments.

      For winter lawn prep in Norfolk, VA:

      1. Continue mowing until growth stops, gradually lowering height to 2-2.5 inches
      2. Remove fallen leaves to prevent smothering
      3. Apply final fertilizer application by mid-November
      4. Control winter weeds before they establish
      5. Complete any overseeding by early October
      6. Keep lawn clear of debris and heavy foot traffic

      This helps protect grass during dormancy and promotes healthy spring growth.
