Calgary's Premium Vegetation Control Services
When weeds and other unwanted plants are growing outside of your lawn, our Vegetation Control is for you!
The weed control in our programs is designed to kill weeds within your lawn. If you have the same weeds growing outside your lawn like patio stones, driveway, rock beds or back alley area then Vegetation Control is a great option. We use the exact same spray in our lawn weeds control but the technician will also spray any areas that are needed. Please note that this vegetation control will not kill any grass or grassy weeds growing inside your lawn. This spray is only meant to control weeds outside your lawn.
Vegetation control happens when weeds spread from your lawn to hardscaped surfaces like your patio stones, sidewalks, driveways, rock gardens and back alleys. Once the weeds start to germinate, they can become tough to manage just like the weeds within your lawn.
This service utilizes the same spray and chemicals, except the technicians will spray any hardscapes areas that have weeds growing within them. This service will not kill any grass or grassy weeds since it's the same product used on your lawn. Once the area has been treated with vegetation control, the weeds will start to brown and twist within 3-7 days. After that has happened the weeds are dying and you can start to pull them away if you wish. If you are interested in booking a vegetation control package, please contact our sales team below or fill out the form.

Commonly Asked Questions
You Ask, We Answer
If the unwanted vegetation was covered and undisturbed for 2 hours after the application, rain shouldn’t cause the application to become ineffective.
There are several factors that may come into play if the application doesn’t yield the results you’re hoping for. If the vegetation doesn’t cease growing and begin to wither after two weeks, please let us know and we will further diagnose the issue. If needed, we will reapply product at no additional charge.
For maximum effectiveness and to avoid skin irritation we recommend pets and children stay off and out of the treated areas until the plant is dry which is typically between 6 to 12 hours.
Nope, we utilize the same chemicals in lawn weed control for this service. So it will only kill any unwanted weeds growing through.
Most likely not, if the weeds and vegetation is over 1 foot tall. We recommend you look into landscaping your area with commercial grade landscape fabric. That landscaping fabric will stop weeds, grass and other vegetation from growing through. This service works best for weeds under 1 foot tall.
