Chorbie serves lawns across seven additional cities beyond our dedicated service pages for Frisco, Plano, McKinney, Celina, Prosper, Aubrey, Anna, Allen, and Lewisville. Several of these communities are long-established Dallas County suburbs with 30-50 year old lawns; others are newer Collin County growth cities. Different housing ages, different challenges — same four services, calibrated to each.
We’ve laid out what you need to know for each city below. Click into your city for details, or request a free quote and we’ll route you to the right technician for your area.
Little Elm sits on Lake Lewisville — a setting that creates a distinct microclimate. Lake-adjacent humidity raises fungal disease pressure (brown patch, take-all root rot) beyond what most DFW cities see, and water availability has shaped how residents think about irrigation. Master-planned communities like Union Park, Sunset Pointe, and Paloma Creek are the area’s most recognizable.
What Little Elm lawns typically need: Disease prevention is more important here than in most DFW cities. Fertilization timing matters more when humidity is a factor — overfeeding in summer humidity accelerates brown patch. Our program calibrates for lakeside conditions.
Melissa sits at the northern edge of Collin County, between McKinney and Anna. Liberty, Meadow Run, and the Melissa portion of Trinity Falls are the largest communities. Melissa’s housing mix is heavily new-build, similar to Anna and Prosper.
What Melissa lawns typically need: New-build profile — aggressive early aeration, pre-emergent from year one, fertilization calibrated for young Bermuda. The lawns that start treatment in year 1 build strong roots; the lawns that wait until year 5 often need rescue work.
The Colony is nicknamed ‘City by the Lake’ — 23 miles of Lewisville Lake shoreline form its western and northern borders. The city spans everything from 1970s-80s original subdivisions to The Tribute, a 1,600-acre lakeside master-planned community with two Tripp Davis-designed golf courses and homes built in the 2010s and later. Austin Ranch, Legends, and the neighborhoods near Grandscape round out the mix.
What The Colony lawns typically need: Two very different treatment profiles depending on where you live. Older Colony lawns from the 1970s-80s need aggressive annual aeration to undo decades of compaction and careful herbicide selection for shaded St. Augustine. Newer Tribute lawns need the early pre-emergent and fertilization we’d recommend for any new-build community. Lake Lewisville proximity adds humidity-driven disease pressure to both profiles.
Carrollton is one of DFW’s oldest inner-ring suburbs — a Dallas County city with ~110,000 residents where most growth happened in the 1970s, 80s, and 90s. That means most Carrollton lawns are 30-50 years old with mature tree canopy, compacting clay soil, and a heavy mix of shaded St. Augustine and mature Bermuda.
What Carrollton lawns typically need: The established-suburb treatment profile. Aeration every year to break up 30+ years of compaction. Grass-type-specific fertilization — Carrollton has as much St. Augustine under tree canopy as any city in DFW, and St. Augustine is a sensitive grass that won’t tolerate the same herbicides as Bermuda. A generic program will damage Carrollton’s St. Augustine lawns. Ours is calibrated to avoid that.
Richardson is the oldest city on this page — another inner-ring Dallas County suburb, ~118,000 residents, where most neighborhoods were built between the 1960s and 1980s. Mature tree canopy dominates most yards; 40-year-old St. Augustine lawns are common. Richardson shares this mature-suburb profile with Plano, Allen, and Carrollton.
What Richardson lawns typically need: Aggressive annual aeration to undo decades of compaction, carefully calibrated fertilization (Richardson’s mix of mature Bermuda and shaded St. Augustine both have different nitrogen needs), and targeted weed control that avoids damaging St. Augustine. Chinch bug, brown patch, and take-all root rot are all common on Richardson’s shaded St. Augustine — we identify these issues before they destroy a lawn.
Wylie sits at the eastern edge of Collin County, and its housing stock is one of the more varied in the rollup — original Wylie neighborhoods from the 1980s-90s mixed with newer master-planned developments built in the past 15 years. Lavon Lake borders Wylie to the east, adding some of the same lake-humidity dynamic we see in Little Elm and The Colony, though less pronounced.
What Wylie lawns typically need: Depends on your neighborhood and lawn age. Older Wylie lawns need mature-lawn treatment — aeration, St. Augustine-safe herbicides, 25+ year compaction recovery. Newer Wylie master-planned lawns need the new-build profile — early pre-emergent and fertilization from year one. Our technicians identify which approach fits your lawn at visit one.
Murphy is a small, mostly built-out city between Plano and Wylie — roughly 20,500 residents and planned buildout at ~22,000. Most Murphy neighborhoods were built in the 1990s and 2000s, which means most Murphy lawns are now 20-30 years old with established tree canopy and the compaction challenges typical of mature DFW suburbs. Murphy is served by Plano ISD schools, and many Murphy residents have lawn care expectations closer to Plano’s than to the newer North DFW growth cities.
What Murphy lawns typically need: Mature-suburb treatment — annual aeration, grass-type-specific fertilization, careful herbicide selection for shaded St. Augustine. Similar profile to Plano’s older neighborhoods and to Allen’s established communities.
8-application annual program. Targets crabgrass, dallisgrass, nutsedge, clover, and broadleaf weeds. Grass-type-specific fertilization.
Liquid aeration for North Texas clay soil. Essential for both mature suburbs (Carrollton, Richardson, Murphy) and newer communities (The Colony Tribute, Melissa).
Cuts watering needs by up to 50% — valuable especially for lake-adjacent properties in Little Elm, The Colony, and Wylie during July-August.

If your lawn isn't responding, we come back and re-treat at no charge.
Yes. We can start service the week your sod is established. Early aeration, pre-emergent, and fertilization build the root system that makes years 3-5 dramatically better — especially important in cities like Melissa and the newer sections of The Colony and Wylie where most lawns are 1-5 years old.
Yes, and mature lawns are often more rewarding work. Most struggling mature lawns have a combination of compaction (needs aeration), nutrient depletion (needs consistent fertilization), and gradual weed colonization that got worse without treatment. One-to-two growing seasons of consistent program work usually brings them back. Carrollton, Richardson, and Murphy all fit this profile.
No minimum — all seven cities above are within our regular service routes. If you’re in a neighboring community not listed (Sachse, Parker, Rowlett, Coppell, Addison), call (972) 697-5221 or request a quote — we’ll tell you straight whether we service your address.
Pricing depends on lot size and selected services. Established Dallas County cities (Richardson, Carrollton) often have larger traditional lots; newer master-planned communities (Melissa, The Tribute) have more standardized sizes. Typical programs start around [$X per application — Cynthia to confirm]. First application is ½ off for new customers.
Yes. The Tribute, Union Park, Sunset Pointe, Paloma Creek, Liberty, and other master-planned communities across these cities have HOA landscape standards. Our program keeps your lawn healthy enough to meet any standard. Let us know your specific HOA’s documentation requirements when you request your quote.
Yes. Licensed applicators, commercial-grade products rated for residential use. Keep pets and kids off the lawn for 2-4 hours after application, until products dry.
