Use this checklist:
- Experience with Central Texas lawns
- “How long have you been servicing lawns in the Austin area?”
- Clear, written programs
- Do they have a defined multi‑round annual plan (not random visits)?
- Is disease and insect control included or constantly upsold?
- Are they licensed for lawn and ornamental applications in Texas?
- Can they provide proof of insurance?
- Product transparency & safety
- Do they explain what they’re applying and why?
- Is it safe for kids and pets after it dries?
- Communication
- Do they send before‑service notifications and after‑service summaries?
- Do techs leave door hangers with what was done and what to expect?
Century Outdoor Services checks all of these boxes with scheduled notifications, clear door hangers, and a defined program for your lawn, shrubs, trees, and fire ants.
What a Year‑Round Program Looks Like with Century Outdoor Services
Here’s how a typical Austin lawn is cared for with us:
Lawn Fertilization & Weed Control: 9 Rounds in 8 Visits
- Targeted pre‑emergents in early spring and fall
- Balanced fertilizers and micronutrients throughout the growing season
- Humic acids and soil enhancers to improve soil health
- Built‑in preventative grub & army worm treatment during peak season
- Ongoing disease monitoring and spot treatments as needed
This is an all‑inclusive program: the visits work together. Skipping rounds creates gaps in protection, so we do not “opt out” individual pieces.
Shrub & Tree Care: 6 Rounds
- Winter dormant oil
- Spring fertilization + pest and disease prevention
- Summer insect and disease control
- Fall nutrition and soil conditioners
No watering‑in is required from the homeowner for this program.
Fire Ant Control: 3 Applications Per Year
- Broadcast granular bait across turf and beds
- Season‑long colony control
- No watering‑in required
FAQs for Austin Homeowners
Do you offer mowing?
No. We focus exclusively on fertilization, weed control, plant health, and fire ant control. Many of our customers keep their existing mowing service while we handle everything “under the hood.”
Is this safe for kids and pets?
Yes. We use premium, modern products and follow label directions. Once products have dried, treated areas are safe for re‑entry.
How often will you come out?
Most lawns receive a visit about every 6 weeks, depending on the program.
How much does it cost?
Pricing is based on your irrigated turf and/or bed square footage. We measure the property, round to the nearest hundred square feet, and quote a clear per‑round price before we begin.
