  • Thompson County Park spans 56 acres of restored prairie and woodland

West St. Paul sits on the bluff overlooking the Mississippi River, creating a tiered geography that affects lawn care. Properties along the bluff edge enjoy river views but deal with slopes and thin soil. The interior neighborhoods on the plateau feature better soil depth and standard suburban conditions. Thompson County Park provides a significant green space and wildlife corridor. The community's older housing stock means mature landscapes with significant shade challenges, and the practical homeowners here prioritize value. We've found West St. Paul residents respond best to honest assessments and efficient programs that deliver results without unnecessary costs.

Featured West St. Paul Project

Signal Hills Complete Neighborhood Revival

A Signal Hills area homeowner inherited a lawn that had been neglected for nearly a decade. Crabgrass and creeping charlie dominated, the soil was so compacted a hammer couldn't drive a screwdriver into it, and bare patches covered 30% of the yard. We proposed a two-year revival plan rather than an expensive complete renovation, focusing on systematic weed elimination, aggressive aeration, organic matter introduction, and patient overseeding to restore the lawn incrementally.

Results

  • Two-year plan cost 60% less than full renovation while achieving comparable results
  • Weed coverage reduced from 70% to under 10%
  • Soil compaction broken through four sequential aeration treatments
  • Lawn now maintains itself with standard maintenance program
  • Practical approach resonated with the homeowner's budget-conscious mindset
