Clients Love Us - No, Seriously… they do! But don’t take our word for it.
Caleb performed the aeration on my lawn and did an excellent job. He was very professional and explained every step of the process. On the day he came to treat my lawn it was trash day. Once the trash was picked up, he moved my trash can out of the street and put it in front of my driveway. Keep up the good work.- Cheryl B.
I want to express my deep appreciation for the amazing customer service I have received from Mr. James Wright and his partner. I never had a pest issue in my house in the 11 years I have owned the home and the last couple of weeks have been the scariest and most uncomfortable situation for my family. Your team came out twice Monday and today and set the traps, they've caught mice and setting more traps to see where the issue is coming from. But overall they have gone above and beyond. I am truly grateful. Thank you for the service. - Sheris M.
I have been a long-time customer of B.O.G. This company offers wonderful service and reliability. I had the pleasure of meeting Service Technician Tameka when arriving at my home for a pest inspection. She was knowledgeable, patient with my many many questions, and offered recommendations. I really appreciated her attentiveness to all of my concerns. As with all Techs and employees I have encountered over the phone for scheduling or general questions, B.O.G.s level of customer satisfaction reinforces that I am making the right decision to invest in protecting my property from unwanted pests. I highly recommend using this company for any issues or prevention inside and out. - Ashley M.

Aeration and Seeding in Lorton
Our aeration and seeding services in Lorton are a key component in providing your turf with the nutrients it needs to reach its full potential. This often-overlooked process allows your grass to fully flourish by enhancing its ability to absorb oxygen, water, and fertilizer. Our experts use machinery to meticulously pull small plugs of soil evenly spaced throughout your lawn. Aeration helps to reduce the thatch build-up which accumulates on the top layer of your soil throughout the year and opens up the opportunity for unhindered growth.
Once this process is completed, we take advantage of your lawn’s unspoiled permeability by topping it off with fresh seeding. Seeding in allows your grass to establish a stronger root system, enhancing its thickness and viability. Other benefits of aeration and seeding include:
- A noticeably fuller and greener turf.
- Reduced appearance of patches and bare spots.
- Increased tolerance to heat and drought stress.
- Reduced runoff and soil compaction.
- Natural prevention of weeds and disease.
- And more!
Why wait to help your landscape have everything it needs to thrive throughout the year? Fall is the optimal time to ensure your soil is able to receive the maximum benefits from our aeration and seeding services. No program is complete without this step, so our technicians will have your yard both aerated and seeded after just one visit. Combined with our total lawn care program, your landscape will have everything it needs to flourish no matter what the weather in Lorton brings!
Tree and Shrub Care in Lorton
When it comes to maintaining the health of your landscape, achieving the results you desire can often be difficult without having to extensively study your property and the individual needs of your trees and shrubs. Why waste time struggling in your yard alone when you can rely on our expert technicians to treat and protect your turf throughout each season? Our team has spent decades perfecting our tree and shrub care so that you can enjoy a bountiful yard without having to lift a finger!
Our six-step tree and shrub care program approach:
- Early Spring: Our tree specialists apply a horticultural oil treatment to protect your trees before insects have the chance to hatch. We then apply fertilizer with micro-nutrients to the root zone of your plants for optimal strength and development.
- Mid-Spring: Each plant is meticulously treated for full protection of your landscape from spring insects and disease.
- Early Summer: We work to keep summer insects like bagworms, mites, or beetles from taking over your grass. We also continue to apply tailored nutrients to your shrubs in order to prevent diseases like powdery mildew, leaf spot, or scale.
- Late Summer: Over the summer insect and disease problems often spread quickly. Both insects and diseases are therefore monitored and treated as needed.
- Fall: Our lawn experts apply deep root injections to protect susceptible plants against harmful pests. This also includes a fully-soluble fertilizer product that provides both chemical and biological fertility, plus the application of our slow-release fertilizer to all other plants.
- Winter: We carefully apply a wax coating to protect your plants from drying out from exposure to ice, wind, or freezing temperatures.
