Scheduled feeding and weed programs for a thick, green, weed-free lawn.
San Marcos sits where spring-fed river valleys meet thin upland soils, and that mixed terrain means your lawn needs a fertilization and weed control program built for exactly what's under your grass, not a cookie-cutter schedule. Whether you own a rental near Texas State, a river property along the Blanco, or an active-adult home in Kissing Tree or Willow Creek, your soil pH, nutrient profile, and weed pressure are different from your neighbor's-and we treat them that way.
Our crews know the San Marcos growing season: hot summers, unpredictable spring rains, and those thin soils that drain fast and don't hold nutrients like heavier clay does. We'll start with an on-site soil read and a honest look at what weeds are already there, then build a seasonal feeding and weed control schedule that keeps your lawn thick and green without wasting time or money on what your yard doesn't need.
Corral Bros is licensed and insured, and we work residential and commercial properties throughout San Marcos. Call us at (737) 404-9343 for a free, no-obligation estimate-we usually get on-site within 48 hours.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your San Marcos property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and fertilization & weed control that holds up to Hays County conditions. Available as a one-time project or part of an ongoing plan.
Most Central Texas lawns benefit from fertilization about 3 to 4 times a year, timed to the growing season, paired with pre- and post-emergent weed control. A consistent program keeps turf thick, green and naturally crowds out weeds.
Apply pre-emergent in early spring (around February) to stop summer weeds, and again in early fall to stop cool-season weeds, before they germinate. Timing is everything, which is why a scheduled program works far better than spot-treating weeds after they appear.
San Marcos has both spring-fed loamy soils along the river and lean, sandy upland soils away from it. River soils hold moisture and nutrients; upland soils drain quickly and leach nutrients fast. We test your specific soil to know whether you need heavy feeding, light feeding, sulfur, or micronutrient additions. That's the only way to avoid over-applying and wasting money.
Pre-emergent goes down in late winter (late January through early February) to stop spring weeds before they sprout. Post-emergent treatments work best on actively growing weeds in spring and fall when weather is mild. Summer heat and dormancy complicate control. We'll time your program to San Marcos' actual growing season, not a national calendar.
Cost depends on your lawn size, soil condition, weed pressure, and how intensive a program you want. We offer free on-site estimates within 48 hours where we can give you honest pricing for your specific property. No guesses, no inflated quotes. Call (737) 404-9343 to schedule yours.
We monitor for grubs and common turf pests as part of our regular lawn visits, and we'll flag damage early so you can decide on treatment. Most San Marcos properties don't need aggressive pest spraying, but we'll tell you if yours does and explain your options upfront.
Yes. River properties need special weed care-closer to water means fewer chemical options and more hand work sometimes. Rentals want predictable, documented service that protects tenants. We work both regularly in San Marcos and tailor our approach to each property type.
Fertilizer feeds existing grass within two to three weeks, so you'll see a color boost and new growth pretty quickly. Weed control takes longer-pre-emergent stops new weeds, but existing ones need two to four weeks to show decline. We'll explain what to expect on every visit.
