Oakwood Lawn Care
& Outdoor Services
Pittsburgh's hillside residential character applies to Oakwood — moderate to significant grade changes are the norm.

The expert standard for Oakwood properties.
Properties in Oakwood deal with the topographic character that defines greater Pittsburgh — grades, retaining walls, and shale-derived soil that makes standard lawn programs from less specialized companies fall short.
Older Pittsburgh neighborhood with modest rowhouse and attached frame construction. Small lots; dense development pattern. The neighborhood's urban scale means pest consulting includes party-wall considerations and urban pest pressures common in dense residential settings.
Services in Oakwood
Pest Control
Perimeter pest treatment timed to the seasonal pressure cycles — ants in spring, spiders and wasps in summer, stink bugs and boxelder bugs in fall. Pet- and kid-safe once dry.
Vegetable Garden Design
Garden planning and design for your specific space: Josie assesses your site, sun, and soil, then builds a vegetable garden plan that actually works. Small yards, raised beds, and urban lots welcome.
What to Know About Oakwood
Soil
Urban Pittsburgh conditions; variable fill history in an older neighborhood with long residential history. Some lots have been modified significantly through the decades. Compaction is common near driveways and high-traffic areas. Organic matter is limited on undisturbed urban soils.
Turf
Fescue on the limited lawn areas between homes in this dense neighborhood. Oakwood's urban character and mature tree canopy limit turf viability. Where lawn exists, shade tolerance is the primary criterion for grass selection. Ground covers are common alternatives.
Climate
Urban Pittsburgh climate. Position near the city core provides moderate urban heat island effect. First frost late October; last frost mid-April. Mature tree canopy moderates temperature extremes across the growing season.

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