Lawn Care in Hillsborough, NC

Life, Uninterrupted. Property, Protected.

Hillsborough’s sloped terrain and dense, rocky clay soil make it difficult for grass roots to grow deep and for water to drain properly. Combined with the area’s humid summers, these conditions create an environment where weeds and turf diseases like brown patch can spread quickly through thinning grass.

Triangle Lawn Care customizes each program to fit Hillsborough’s unique soil and climate. Our team combines aeration, lime applications, and balanced fertilization to improve nutrient absorption and strengthen roots. With routine, seasonally timed visits, we help reduce disease risk and keep Hillsborough lawns healthy, balanced, and vibrant throughout the year.

Travion B. is professional and courteous! He texted before arriving. He responded to my texted question about treating the lawn while raining with a friendly phone call. He took his time and did a very thorough application on my lawn, despite working in the rain! I would like for him to continue to care for my lawn moving forward! Great work!

He was great. He took the time to explain what was happening with the lawn and also noted that another treatment would have to happen sooner than later. He said he was going to put in a request for the warranty second treatment. He was very very polite and professional.

Seasonal Lawn Care Tips

SPRING

March - May

The Wake-Up Call & Pre-Emergent Battle

Spring is all about setting the stage for a strong growing season. This is the key time to apply pre-emergent weed control, targeting summer weeds like crabgrass before they can take root. Both Fescue and Bermuda lawns benefit from this early protection. We pair that with a nutrient-rich feeding to jumpstart Bermuda’s early growth and support healthy Fescue recovery from winter stress. Consistent care and balanced fertilization this time of year set the foundation for a thick, healthy lawn all summer long.

SUMMER

June - August

Survival Mode and Fungal Defense

Summer is prime growth time for Warm-Season Bermuda in the Triangle! Maintain a low mowing height (2-3 inches) and consistent moisture to support its aggressive growth. We provide the specific summer-blend fertilization required to maximize its thickness and color. For Cool-Season Fescue, summer is about survival: keep the mowing height high (4 inches) and prioritize early morning watering to manage moisture and prevent humidity-driven fungal diseases like Brown Patch.

WINTER

December - February

Protection and Next Season Prep

While growth slows, the Fescue root systems remain active. The primary task is cleanup: remove all fallen leaves and heavy debris immediately to prevent the grass from smothering and breeding disease. Avoid walking on the lawn when it is frozen or covered in heavy frost, as this instantly damages the blades. A final, light nitrogen feeding in late February helps stimulate early root development, setting the stage for a thick, vibrant green start to the next spring.

FALL

September - November

The Renovation Season and Root Building

Fall is the single most vital time for your lawn. We recommend the "Big Three" steps: core aeration to break up compacted clay soil, immediate overseeding to fill in patches, and the heaviest fertilizer application of the year. This aggressive feeding allows the grass to recover from summer stress and build robust roots to survive the coming winter. We also apply broadleaf herbicides to eliminate any persistent cool-season weeds.

Hillsborough, NC Growing Conditions
& Climate Characteristics

Hillsborough lies in USDA Zone 8a, with winter lows between 10°F and 15°F. Its rocky clay soil and shaded lawns limit drainage and sunlight, encouraging fungus and weak turf. Regular aeration, lime treatments, and customized fertilization keep Fescue and Bermuda lawns healthy and strong.

REGIONAL LOCATION:  Central Piedmont (Rolling, Partially Shaded Terrain)

AVERAGE TEMPERATURE RANGE:  33°F (winter lows) to 88°F (summer highs)

PRIMARY STRESS PERIOD: Late summer to early fall (August–October) from heat, humidity, and occasional drought

ANNUAL PRECIPITATION:  ~47 inches, fairly evenly distributed throughout the year.

OVERALL CLIMATE TYPE: Humid subtropical with warm, humid summers, mild winters, and variable rainfall

Most Common Lawn Issues
in Hillsborough, NC

Spoiler alert: It usually involves that heavy North Carolina clay.

 

COMPACTED SOIL
Hillsborough’s clay and rocky terrain make it difficult for roots to grow deep and access water. Core or liquid aeration helps relieve compaction and improve soil structure.

 

LAWN DISEASE

Warm, humid summers invite fungal issues like brown patch and dollar spot. Preventive fungicide treatments and smart watering keep turf protected.

 

SUMMER WEEDS

Crabgrass, spurge, and clover thrive in thin, sun-exposed areas. Pre- and post-emergent weed control keeps lawns looking clean and balanced through the growing season.

 

MY LAWN DOESN’T QUITE MATCH THE REST OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD
