Since 1992, Town and Country Lawn Care is a family owned company servicing in Southern Chester County. We are a local company that gives back to the community where we live. Our kids go to local schools, we shop in the local stores, and coach our children in the community. In the earlier years, it became apparent that there was a customer service void in the landscape industry that we knew we could fill. Just doing mediocre work, with below average customer attention, and communication, seemed to be the norm. Our goal was to provide superior customer service with quality workmanship. We are very proud to have achieved an unprecedented annual customer retention rate of 98% and get most of our business as referrals from satisfied customers. As a further commitment to the utmost in professionalism, our crews are always dressed in Town and Country Lawn Care, uniforms, and a supervisor is always on site. We welcome your questions and thank you for your interest.
"The team did such a beautiful on removing piles of debris and finishing our pre-fall cleanup. They went above and beyond and were very affordable. We are looking forward to more projects with Town and Country and already have the next job in mind!"

Seeding is less expensive up front compared to sod installation. However, sod provides an instant lawn with minimal maintenance, while seeded lawns require extended care and can take up to two years to fully establish.
“To determine how much sod you need, first calculate your yard’s total area by sketching your layout and multiplying each section’s length by its width. Standard sod pieces measure 2 feet by 1½ feet, and one pallet covers 450 square feet. Divide your total square footage by this pallet coverage figure and consult your sod provider for precise estimates to ensure you purchase the correct amount.”
“New sod develops a strong root system within 10 to 14 days, so it is not ready for heavy use until this period is complete. Do not walk on or disturb the sod during this critical phase, as premature activity delays healthy rooting. Allow the grass to settle firmly to secure long-term lawn durability.”
“You can begin limited, careful use of your lawn two weeks after installation to allow initial rooting. However, refrain from heavy traffic or frequent mowing until six weeks have passed and the roots have fully anchored the sod. Consistent watering during this period is essential to promote robust development and long-term stability.”
“After installation, monitor your sod closely for balanced color and uniform moisture. Watch for brown patches or uneven growth, as these indicate dehydration or nutrient deficiencies. Maintaining a steady watering schedule and ensuring the sod remains undisturbed during its early stages are essential steps to guarantee robust root development and a healthy, attractive lawn.”
“The best time to install sod is during spring or fall. These seasons offer optimal temperatures and moisture levels that ensure rapid rooting and strong establishment. Avoid installing sod in winter when the ground is frozen or in summer when extreme heat can dehydrate the grass, as proper conditions are critical for a durable lawn.”
