Weed Control Services
From dandelions in your lawn to weeds taking over your gravel driveway, we've got the tools and products to take them out.
Comprehensive Weed Management
Weeds are persistent, opportunistic, and — on Vancouver Island — they grow year-round. Whether it's dandelions dotting your lawn, vegetation creeping through your gravel driveway, or grass growing from cracks in your sidewalk, we have targeted solutions for every weed problem.
Lawn Weed Control
Selective herbicide treatments that kill broadleaf weeds like dandelions, clover, plantain, and buttercup without harming your grass. Applied as part of our regular lawn care programs.
Gravel Area Spraying
Total vegetation control for gravel driveways, parking areas, pathways, and gravel pads. We keep your gravel areas clean and weed-free with regular treatments throughout the growing season.
Driveway Crack Spraying
Targeted treatment for weeds and grass growing through cracks in concrete driveways, sidewalks, patios, and asphalt. Precise application that eliminates weeds without damaging your hardscape.
Prevention Is the Best Weed Control
The best defense against weeds is a thick, healthy lawn. Weeds exploit thin spots, bare patches, and weak grass. That's why our weed control service works best when combined with proper fertilization, aeration, and overseeding — all part of the 7-Step Lawn Care Program.
For gravel areas and hardscapes, regular treatments throughout the season keep weeds from getting established. Most properties need 2-3 gravel area treatments per year for season-long control.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of weeds do you treat?
We handle broadleaf weeds in lawns (dandelions, clover, plantain, buttercup), weeds in gravel areas and driveways, and vegetation growing through cracks in concrete and asphalt.
Do you spray gravel driveways and parking areas?
Yes. Gravel area spraying is one of our most popular services. We treat driveways, parking areas, pathways, and gravel pads to keep them weed-free.
How long does weed control take to work?
Broadleaf lawn weeds typically show visible wilting within 3-5 days and die within 2-3 weeks. Gravel area treatments work similarly, with full results visible within a few weeks.
Is one treatment enough?
For lawns, we recommend at least two weed control applications per year (spring and fall) for best results. Gravel areas may need 2-3 treatments per season depending on weed pressure.
Will weed control harm my grass?
No. Our lawn weed control products are selective — they target broadleaf weeds while leaving your grass unharmed. This is a key advantage of professional products over DIY approaches.
