Veteran Owned & Locally Operated Co.,  Joe Taylor is a first-generation immigrant from Subic Bay, Philippines.  I have been visiting & living in Charleston SC on/off since 1982.  I finally called Charleston & the Low Country home after serving in the military in 1995.  Left in 2000 to Jacksonville, FL and came back to Charleston in 2011.  I appreciate the amazing opportunity to be a resident & homeowner here, in Berkeley County, one of the Tri-Counties. 

The reason Palmetto Lawn Service opened is because I was having soil compaction issues with my lawn.   After a recent purchase of a new, home in an HOA subdivision in 2019, my sod started to die after a year.   I decided to research and found out that minerals from the soil were removed from the scraping, machine compaction, & leveling of the new, built home lot. 

In order to keep the Lawn thick and healthy in Charleston, it needs Soil pH Test + Core Aeration + Top Dressing + Fertilizing and Weed & Insecticide control in addition to other maintenance regimen.  The turf needs a long-term plan to improve its overall health and appearance, using horticultural standards & best practices. 

The compaction in our sandy/clay soil caused by machines on new build homes and hi traffic, requires Soil Amendments such as Core Aeration (at least once a year) to allow water, air and nutrients to penetrate the grass roots.  The soil will also benefit from adding/incorporating Organic Compost Top Dressings multiple times throughout the year.   Cutting the grass at the correct height regularly with a sharpen blade, & deep watering infrequently will also assist in helping the lawn look lush, healthy & green.  Follow your grass type's Lawn Maintenance Calendar.  

Palmetto Lawn Service was born to offer Mowing - Core Aeration - Top Dressing - Overseeding - Dethatching - Fertilizing - Soil pH Testing - & Other Lawn Care Maintenance Services to homeowners & local community.   Our services lessen the burden of renting, picking up & returning the equipment/machines (if available for rental), in addition to the labor to complete your lawn project.  We initialize your large, labor-intensive lawn project & give you reign and knowledge to get your lawn turf back to lush, healthy & green.

Palmetto Delivery Service also offer our clients who do not own a truck and/or trailer to pick up & deliver bulky Lawn Supplies, Lawn Rental Equipment, Golf Carts, ATVs, or anything larger than you can haul.

My goal is to spread Soil Amendment Awareness as an essential part of keeping your Lawn Healthy & Beautiful in the Charleston & Tri-County.   Check out your grass type's Lawn Maintenance Calendar on this website to assist you with your lawn journey. 

This website was built " to help YOU create your lush, healthy & green grass."
