It all started with a seed

about

With the success of Prairie Environmental Services, we wanted to establish a sibling company that would provide the same high level of professional customer service and quality lawn care to our residential clients - with a bit of added personality to go along with it.

And with that, Dandy Lawns was born.

Whereas Prairie is the big sister of the duo, demure and tied to professionalism, Mr. Dandy carries forth a sense of joy, childlike wonder, and just the right amount of irreverence - all while continuing to uphold the family’s fine reputation. (In fact, he has told us in confidence that he thinks his sister is rather uptight, but that’s just between us!) In short, Dandy gets the job done right - with a bit of extra fun along the way.

Dandy’s owners represent the most merrymaking, happy-go-lucky, and hard-working citizens you will ever have the chance to meet; true locals with strong roots and rich history of volunteering within our community. It’s this deep connection, and a desire to share that sense of community pride that inspired them to launch Dandy Lawns.

Mr. Dandy believes homeowners should be proud of their yards and that they should have the opportunity to enjoy lush, green grass without stress. His strong dedication to customer service and treating his neighbours like gold is at the very heart of Mr. Dandy’s identity.

We hope you love our dynamic, dapper, dear ‘Dandy’ as much as we do!

FAQ's

What should I expect from Mr. Dandy's Lawn Care PROGRAMS?

Depending on what programs you have signed up for, your first application will be a fertilizer application either late April or early May. Herbicide applications will then follow in May and occur once every 4 to 6 weeks.

Granular fertilization application will be applied in the same visit, building stronger plants, and strengthening the lawn against those pesky weeds. During the fall, an application of winter fertilizer is also applied, ensuring your lawn stays healthy through the winter.

When Will the application start to work?

Most common broadleaf weeds such as dandelion, thistle, and clover will die within one week, however, some pesky weeds may need a second application for it to take full effect. With our awesome weed control packages, have no fear we will make sure you have a weed-free lawn the entire summer!

Is a one Time application avaliable?

No, unfortunately. Mr.Dandy wants to provide you with the best lawn possible, so your neighbours will be so jealous. He does not offer one-time service, as a beautiful lawn needs long-term, full-season care. With our DYNAMIC weed control packages and full-season fertilization, you can enjoy a green lawn all summer long.
