Hello, my name is David Watkins, founder of Turf Nerd Lawn Care. I am often asked, why I chose "Turf Nerd" for the name of my company? The answer is, the name chose me. Many years ago, my colleagues nicknamed me "The Turf Nerd" as an endearing way to poke fun at me for my enthusiasm regarding turf science.
Turf Nerd Lawn Care is proud to sponsor Luv4K9s Dog Rescue. We will donate $40.00 to Luv4K9s for every new client that signs up for either an annual Lawn Care Package or an annual Flea, Tick and Mosquito Package. We are lawn fertilization, weed and insect control experts. We specialize in people, pet and earth friendly lawn care services.

I’m endorsing David, my father, knows what he is talking about. He has lived and breathed lawn care my whole life. He’s also spent many weekends driving his kids around to look at his clients lawns and all I can say is they stood out in the neighborhood as Turf Nerd’s work.

David knows his stuff. As a lawn care professional, I can attest to the quality of the turf he cares for. Nice to have other true professionals in the area!

David & his team at Turf Nerd are the best lawn care professionals we've ever used. They've managed to turn our yard (which would have been a "2" into an almost "10") because of the challenging soil, slope to our yard, shade with all our trees, etc. They are AMAZING! David's knowledge of understanding your lawn is above & beyond. I would jokingly say it's not rocket science, but it is science, and they're GREAT at it! Treating our lawn organically was a huge plus. The customer service is stellar, and we wouldn't trust anyone else. Turf Nerd is the way to go!

David started working with me in 2013 when my yard started out in very bad shape; I live near the Little Miami river and so my soil is pretty much composed completely of clay and rocks. David has used his organic turf tea to help transform my soil into a much better substrate, and since using him my neighbor has even said that my yard looked like the Augusta Golf Course! Highly recommended.

Awesome service I have been a very happy customer for 3 years. Would not go with anyone else in my area. Love the organic side of it. Great that it also makes my neighbors, very happy as their 2 Boxer dogs enjoy it too! My lawn looks great all year long.
Cheers

As far as I am concerned there's nobody more knowledgeable than David Watkins about lawn care! He has been at it a long time and knows his 'stuff'. He has been doing lawn care off and on for me since 1997 and I have always been very satisfied with his service. They stay up to date with some of the latest organic technology doing their part in making the planet a little (no, a LOT!) greener!

I’m in year three with David, and I’d rate him greater than 5/5 if I could. When my wife and I started investigating lawn care, organic treatment was top priority. David delivered. When we spoke, he said all the things I had in my mind that needed checked. From there it’s been a great service for our lawn. David takes time to care about your lawn and whatever concerns or questions you have. He’s stopped by my house to answer specific questions I have had. He’s spoke with me on the phone for over an hour on my questions or concerns I’ve had. He cares about your lawn, plain and simple
