A lush, vibrant lawn is the foundation of a beautiful home. It provides a soft place for children to play, enhances your home’s curb appeal, and can even increase your property value. However, waiting for grass seed to grow can be a long, frustrating process filled with patchy spots and invasive weeds.
At Amherst Landscaping, we provide an immediate solution: professional sod installation. Within hours, we can transform a bare dirt lot into a mature, deep-green landscape.

With over 5 years of dedicated service in the Amherst, Kenmore, and Williamsville regions, we have built a reputation for excellence and reliability.
We aren't a national franchise. We are local professionals who live and work in the same neighbourhoods you do. We understand the specific soil compositions of Depew, the drainage issues in Cheektowaga, and the unique microclimates of Buffalo and North Tonawanda.
We invest in high-grade, professional-grade application equipment. This allows for even distribution and better penetration of our treatments, leading to faster results and a healthier lawn.
Weed control is most effective when combined with other lawn care services. We often recommend pairing weed treatments with:
OUR STEP-BY-STEP APPROACH
We do not believe in a one size fits all approach. Every lawn in Amherst is different, and our services are tailored to the unique conditions of your soil and the types of weeds present.
The best way to handle weeds is to stop them before they even break the surface. Our pre-emergent treatments create a barrier in the soil that prevents weed seeds from germinating in the spring. This is particularly effective against crabgrass, which can produce thousands of seeds per plant if left unchecked.
For weeds that have already established themselves, we utilise targeted post-emergent applications. Rather than blanket-spraying your entire yard with unnecessary chemicals, we spot-treat problematic areas. This precision helps eliminate weeds while keeping your lawn and local ecosystem safe.
At Amherst Landscaping, we prioritise the safety of your family and pets. We use eco-friendly pesticides and bio-powered treatments that are tough on weeds but gentle on the environment. Our products are designed to break down naturally, leaving your lawn safe for children and four-legged friends to enjoy shortly after application.
PROFESSIONAL WEED CONTROL
Many homeowners attempt DIY weed control with over-the-counter sprays, only to find the weeds returning weeks later, often thicker than before. Effective weed management is not just about killing what you see; it is about understanding the biology of your lawn and the specific species invading it.
Understanding your enemy is the first step to victory. The Western New York climate presents a specific set of challenges. Our team is trained to identify and treat the most common local invaders that damage lawns across Amherst and nearby areas.
We deliver targeted treatments to eliminate weeds at the root and prevent regrowth. Designed for Western New York conditions, our solutions keep your lawn clean, healthy, and weed-free all season.
These perennial pests have deep taproots that make them incredibly difficult to pull by hand.
An annual grass that thrives in the heat of July and August, quickly choking out cool-season grasses.
While some like the look, clover can quickly outpace your grass and create an uneven texture.
Known for its large, leathery leaves that flatten against the ground, smothering the grass beneath.
A stubborn, vine-like weed that spreads rapidly through shaded areas of your yard.
For the best results, weed control should be a year-round consideration. Here is how we manage your property through the seasons.
Application of pre-emergents to stop summer annuals like crabgrass before they have the chance to take over your lawn.
Targeted broadleaf control for common weeds such as dandelions and clover, helping your lawn stay clean, healthy, and even.
Monitoring and clean-up spot treatments for heat-loving weeds that appear during the hottest part of the growing season.
This is the most critical time for perennial weed control. As weeds prepare for winter, they pull nutrients and our treatments down into their root systems, helping ensure they do not return next year.
Typically, you will see broadleaf weeds begin to curl and yellow within 3 to 7 days of a post-emergent treatment. Total elimination usually occurs within 2 to 3 weeks.
Yes! We use eco-friendly products. We simply ask that you keep pets off the lawn until the treatment has completely dried (usually 1–2 hours depending on the weather).
While hand-pulling works for some annuals, many weeds (like dandelions or thistle) have deep roots. If even a small piece of the root is left behind, the weed will grow back. Our treatments ensure the entire plant is neutralized.
We proudly serve the entire Western New York region, including:
