    Wake Forest lawns blend both cool and warm-season grasses, with most yards averaging 4,826 square feet. The soil makeup in this North Carolina city leans sandy with good drainage, containing 49% sand mixed with silt and clay.

    For better lawn care in Wake Forest, focus on these soil facts:

    • The slightly acidic pH of 6.1 works well for most grass types
    • Sandy soil means more frequent watering may be needed
    • Organic matter at 3.05% helps retain nutrients and water

    The key to successful Wake Forest lawn care starts with understanding your soil's nutrient levels. While local soils show decent amounts of calcium and iron, they might need extra phosphorus and potassium for healthy grass growth. A soil test can guide your fertilizing schedule.

    Three steps for healthy Wake Forest lawns:

    1. Water deeply but less often to encourage deep root growth
    2. Adjust mowing height based on your grass type
    3. Create a custom lawn plan that matches your soil's needs

    Results!

    This program was a game changer for me. Going to the big box stores and guessing what my lawn needed just was not working. Now it’s as simple as waiting for my shipment (whis is like Christmas by the way) and spraying on. My grass has never been healthier. I’m in my second year and I’m seeing fewer and fewer weeds and my grass is so very green (the images don’t do it justice). Take it from me...don’t wait....buy it...you will not be disappointed!

      Wake Forest, North Carolina FAQs

      For Wake Forest's transition zone climate, tall fescue is the best cool-season grass choice. It handles both heat and cold well while maintaining good color year-round. Zoysia and Bermuda are warm-season options that thrive in full sun and offer excellent drought tolerance once established.

      When choosing lawn care in Wake Forest, consider these key factors:

      1. Climate-appropriate solutions for the transition zone
      2. Service frequency based on your grass type and growing season
      3. Cost and value - traditional services average $150-200 per visit while DIY options like Sunday's customized plans start at $55 per season
      4. Eco-friendly practices that protect people, pets and the environment
      5. Expert support and guidance throughout the growing season

      The 1/3 rule states you should never cut off more than one-third of the grass blade length in a single mowing. This maintains grass health by preventing shock and stress. For example, if your grass is 3 inches tall, don't cut off more than 1 inch.

      Professional lawn mowing services in Wake Forest typically cost between $45-75 per visit for an average 1/4 acre lot. Prices vary based on lot size, terrain, and mowing frequency. Weekly mowing during peak growing season (March-October) is recommended for most grass types in this region.

      The most cost-effective lawn maintenance in Wake Forest combines proper mowing practices with targeted fertilization. Mow regularly at the proper height, leave grass clippings as natural fertilizer, and use a customized fertilizer plan like Sunday's that starts at $55 per season versus $150+ per visit for traditional services.

      Professional lawn care services in Wake Forest typically charge $150-200 per visit. For a more affordable option, Sunday's custom lawn plans start at $55 per season and include fertilizer, soil testing, expert support, and optional add-ons like weed control and grass seed - all delivered directly to your door.

      People hire lawn care services in Wake Forest to save time, ensure proper maintenance during the long growing season, and benefit from professional expertise in managing common challenges like weeds, diseases, and proper fertilization timing. The transition zone climate requires specific knowledge to maintain healthy turf year-round.

      The average annual lawn care budget in Wake Forest ranges from $800-2,400 for professional services. Sunday's customized lawn care plans offer a more affordable option starting at $55 per season, with products delivered throughout your growing season. This includes fertilizer, soil testing, and expert support, with optional add-ons for complete lawn care.
