Top Dressing

Top Dressing

Professional top dressing improves soil quality and promotes a smoother, healthier lawn by enhancing nutrient levels and supporting stronger turf growth.

Top Dressing: Fescue (Cool Season Turf)

This is to add crucial organic nutrients and seeds to an existing turf to improve turf health and thickness. This improves the quality of the soil for the turf and allows for water and fertilizer to reach the root zone more effectively. Crucial things to consider are the type of material used, timing, and application process.

Our Process

  • Fall: generally, right before aeration and over-seed or right after aeration and over- seed.

Material

  • We use certified organic compost from a local source. (80%)
  • We blend the organic material with a screened topsoil. (10%)
  • We use certified PGA bunker sand. (10%)
  • Blue tag certified Fescue seed is mixed at a rate of 25lb per half yard of material.
      • These materials are blended by us for each top dress application we complete

Or: We can use a certified organic compost from a local source.

Process of Applying

  • We use an Earth and Turf top dress machine so we can control the thickness of the product applied to the turf.

  • We also use hand rakes and leveling rakes to work the product into the turf.

Our pricing for this service is based on the square footage of Fescue Turf the customer has and can be tailored to the customer’s needs.

My husband and I started using Lawn Impressions about one year ago! We moved into a relatively new property and the quality of the grass seed was not optimal. Lawn impressions takes care of our fescue as well as Bermuda. Our yard looks amazing and when we have friends and family come over, they often comment on how great the grass looks. We have been very impressed with the high quality service they provide! They are always so quick to respond to any questions that I have and truly care about the work and service they provide! This is a wonderful company and I highly recommend!

At the beginning of the pandemic, I relocated to Concord from out of state. After several unsatisfactory experiences with temp services (e.g., Angie's list bookings) I found Lawn Impressions and started using their weekly lawn care plan. A year or so later, I contacted the owner, Elise, about doing some hardscaping in the backyard. What a great decision! She and Josh took my ideas and created a design that has exceeded my expectations as far as form and functionality. They started work on schedule and didn't stop until the projects were complete. The following spring they relandscaped my front beds (builder installed). They have a great team of employees all of whom I've come to know by name. Recently I upgraded to their "premium" lawn care service, a bundle that includes lawn care and maintenance as well as weeding all areas. Highly recommended.

I replaced a "national brand" lawn service with Lawn Impressions and I could not be happier. They have turned a mediocre yard into a truly beautiful lawn. Thank you!

Josh and his crew did an outstanding job with my landscaping needs!! I had a moderately sized mulch job that he took care of for me, and being under a time crunch, he was able to help us out, even though his schedule was pretty tight. Kudos to the high quality work!! I will definitely use this company for future landscape needs!! Outstanding work!!
