  • Through regular weed control, we help prevent weeds from spreading their seeds and regrowing season after season. Your lawn will look better and be healthier when you manage your weeds before they grow out of control.

  • We offer various weed removal service options, including initial weeding, weekly weeding, and pre-emergent applications. All our work is backed by the Neighbourly Done Right Promise®, which guarantees your satisfaction.

  • Sucker control
  • Controlling volunteer tree seedlings
  • Maintenance weeding
  • Initial weeding

Weekly Chemical and Hand-Pulling Service

Our weekly chemical and hand-pulling weed control service provides incredible results to maintain your home landscape's curb appeal. Our trained professionals use chemical control techniques and hand pulling to cut off suckers and unwanted saplings at the base of plants.

Bed Pre-Emergent

When other weed control methods can't keep up with constant weed growth, we use bed pre-emergent applications. We can apply these to flower and groundcover gardens and other parts of your home's landscape. Making these applications during specific times of the growing season allows for the most significant control of weeds.

Traditional Chemical Weeding and Organic Applications

The Grounds Guys offers traditional and organic weed control applications based on your local and provincial regulations. We will only treat the area where weeds are located.

Hand Weeding

Hand weeding is a great option when you prefer not to use chemical treatments on your lawn. If you've ever pulled weeds by hand, you know how tedious and challenging it can be. We offer weed hand-pulling services that save you considerable time and effort.

Sucker Control

We use specific control materials to inhibit the growth of sucker sprouts and keep aggressive sucker sprouts from occurring. We cut sucker sprouts off at the base of plants.

Volunteer Tree Seedlings

Sometimes, tree seedlings sprout inside landscape plants. Our professionals can cut these seedlings off at the base. If needed, we can treat them with a chemical to prevent seedlings from regrowing.

Maintenance Weeding

If you love the idea of simply sitting back and never worrying about weeds again, our maintenance weeding package is right for you. As the name suggests, we will put your weeding program on autopilot, with our team coming by at regular intervals to perform your preferred weeding services.

Initial Weeding

Our first visit usually requires more time and effort as we get on top of the situation and set you up for success moving forward. Most of our customers decide to move into a maintenance plan after the initial removal of weeds.

    The team from Grounds Guys did an amazing job. They were courteous and cleaned up everything after they finished. They even came back the nex morning to seed around the posts and any area that the lawn got damaged. I will definitely recommend and use them for any future projects.

  • White speech bubble with a star in the middle against a green background.

    Great service from The Grounds Guys Barrie. The crew was at our home for four days cleaning beds, edging, moving perennials, reshaping our gardens and finally laying a ton of mulch. Jaclyn and Hailey did most of the work the first couple of days with great care and attention to detail, they worked so diligently to get everything completed to our liking. Very pleasant and knowledgeable, I loved their energy!! The rest of the crew came in the last couple of days for the remainder of cleaning and mulching, I can’t say enough about how pleasant and hard working everyone was. Thank you, you have been the best gardeners we have hired and I am very happy with the end results.
