The expert standard for McKees Rocks properties.

Priority same-day response

The Pittsburgh-area growing season hits McKees Rocks on the typical western PA calendar — early-April green-up, mid-October first frost — but the dense tree canopy in older neighborhoods means fall leaf work runs in waves through November.

Working-class urban borough with a mix of older rowhouses on hillside streets and flatter industrial areas near the Ohio River. Small lots; steep terrain is the defining challenge. Post-industrial character with some active revitalization. Dense residential areas with parking challenges.

Local Conditions

What to Know About McKees Rocks

Soil

Highly variable urban conditions. Industrial history near the Ohio River has left disturbed soil profiles in some areas. Hillside residential lots have eroded clay subsoil on steeper grades. Some properties have rubble fill from demolition. Organic matter is limited on disturbed urban sites.

Turf

Tall fescue is the practical choice for McKees Rocks' steep hillside residential areas with significant shade. Where lawns survive on the steep terrain, fescue provides the slope stability and shade tolerance that bluegrass cannot. Some properties have abandoned turf entirely for hardscape.

Climate

Ohio River valley urban climate. River proximity moderates temperatures. Urban heat island effect is moderate. First frost mid to late October; last frost mid-April. Valley fog common along the Ohio River.

My yard was a mess. Within two weeks of regular cuts and a cleanup, they turned it around completely. Looks amazing.
