It’s Not Just About Installation - How The GreenKeepers Helps You Protect Your Landscape for the Long Haul
At The GreenKeepers of Athens, we believe your outdoor landscaping project is something worth investing in and we’re with you every step of the way. Just as our customers take the time to plan out and save for landscaping projects, our team invests their time and energy into ensuring your project is completed to a high-standard from start to finish. We begin with careful preparation and planning before installation. Our expert team communicates solutions, explains options, and walks you through your project’s timeline. After your project is completed we work to ensure our customers receive proper follow-up guidance and maintenance tips for their new landscaping installation. Our mission is to set you up for success long after the job is done.
Whether it’s fresh sod, mulch, plantings, or turf, we want all of our neighbors, not just our customers, to have the tools to protect their landscapes during Georgia’s heat, heavy rain, and beyond.
There are many things to consider when it comes to post-care for freshly planted flowers and greenery. Watering schedules, trimming, pruning, fertilizing, and more are all things we like for our customers to be educated on so they can keep their landscape investment thriving long after installation.
Before Installation: We Set the Stage for Success
✔ We carefully assess your property’s conditions, including sunlight, drainage, and soil health.
✔ We guide you in selecting the best sod, plants, or mulch for your space and lifestyle.
✔ We prepare the site so that everything we install has the best chance to thrive.

During Installation: Attention to Detail Matters

After Installation: Your Success Is Our Priority
We don’t leave you guessing! Our Post-Installation Guide includes practical, easy-to-follow steps, like:
Water smart: Daily watering for the first 2 weeks, then gradually reduce while ensuring deep root growth.
Mow right: Wait 3-4 weeks for the first mow and don’t cut more than 1/3 of the blade.
Avoid heavy traffic: Let the sod establish before foot traffic.
Delay herbicides: Give sod time to establish before chemical treatments.
