The Service
Trad’s provides a very user-friendly program for its customers. The Lawn Care Program covers the four major turf destroying insects: chinch bugs, mole crickets, sod web worms, and fall army worms; in addition to weed control, disease control, and fertilization.

Trad’s customers receive six applications of specially formulated turf fertilizations per growing season. Because the applications are spread over the course of the growing season, the treatment interval is usually 50 to 60 days, weather dependent. To these applications, additives such as broad leaf weed control products (Spring and Fall only), insect control products, potassium and other elements are included when appropriate. Included in the cost of the program are unlimited service calls and any treatments necessary as a result of the service calls. Service calls are the customer’s responsibility to make.

As a convenience to the customer, Trad’s takes the entire cost of the program and pro-rates the amount over the course of the yearly agreement. Trad’s customers make smaller, monthly payments for the service instead of being asked to keep track of services on a pay as you go program. We fully realize that many of our customers have hired us because they either do not want to be bothered with fertilizing their lawns or do not know enough about the process to take it on themselves. We therefore take the guesswork out of treatments for our customers. We schedule the six applications in the office and send out your sprayer for you. If the customer notices a problem, a simple call to the office results in a service call by a trained lawn inspector. The lawn inspector will diagnose the problem and making any necessary treatments.

Every time Trad’s makes a visit to a customer’s lawn, a note will be left with any information the customer needs. Also, a sign will be left in the yard any time a treatment is made.

Trad’s realizes that circumstances can change for our customers: relocation, moves, retirement, etc. Therefore a customer may cancel their agreement at any time by simply giving Trad’s a thirty day written notice and paying for the services provided through the date of cancellation. Because Trad’s customers pay a monthly pro-rated amount for the six applications over the course of twelve months, partial year cost is formulated at the rate of two (2) payments per one (1) application.
