Small jobs welcome

"My yard was overgrown. Simon and his team came in and did a great job of cleaning it up. He came out with his assistant and gave me a quote. Not the cheapest, but also nowhere near the most expensive either. The job included removal of overgrown grass and weeds, trimming of bushes and light tree trimming and removal of some small trees. We came to an agreement and his crew arrived on time on the day of the work. We did another walk around the yard before they started just to make sure everyone knew what was expected. I also marked some trees and bushes with tape so that these would be left alone or just trimmed. His crew was very efficient and got the job done in about 7 hours, including their lunch break. Other gardeners had told me it would take at least two days and hauling the debris off was extra. Simon's price included disposal. Excellent job all around! Highly recommended!"

"Mr. Perez, went above and beyond to figure out the problem with my sprinkler system, and the lack of water in parts of my garden. He finally found a broken pipe. He then dug a trench to add a new pipe and to also to equalize the water pressure. He was like a “water whisperer” solving a problem that stumped other folks."

"Jesus was very professional. He diagnosed and repaired the problem. Additionally, he adjusted the other sprinklers so they are now watering only the lawn and not the driveway & sidewalk as well. I would highly recommend. Thank you."

"The Green Life crew did an amazing job with my landscape. We had hedges installed and they even added drip lines. I love their attention to detail and plant recommendations because I’m a little picky. They also keep my lawn looking green and healthy."

"They did a beautiful job. They even had to cut around a number of decorative rocks. When we were restricted to watering twice a week outdoors my backyard lawn died within two weeks—-it gets full sun. I was nervous about artificial turf because I didn’t know anyone who had it, but the guarantee on the high quality material is very good. There is a lot of labor required to get the ground ready for the artificial turf. Hye Turf Designs has great people. Ask for Hutch——he is the co-ownerof the company."

"Yosi was very helpful in the design of our project to take out our grass and put in low water plants and mulch with pathways throughout our yards. We had an idea of what we wanted and he made our ideas happen. He was on time with every step of the process, and came in on budget. He stood by his guarantee to replace any plants that died and also re-smoothed the decomposed granite pathways to my liking."

"Motti was very personable and honest about what he thought would work for our front yard. He seemed to immediately understand our vision, and was able to create the look we wanted. He was also able to easily incorporate the fountain and leftover flagstone that we had already purchased. The work was done well and efficiently, including cleaning deep roots and removal of 2 large trees. The team was helpful within a couple days of the job completion after we realized that the sprinkler system was not working properly. My fear that the plants would die within weeks was unfounded -- only 2 plants died in the middle of the summer heat!"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

While there’s no exact science to how often you should rake your leaves, a good rule of thumb to follow is to rake leaves every three to four days. However, you can rake more often or less often, depending on how quickly leaves are accumulating on your lawn.

The average cost to mow a lawn is about $125 per visit, with prices typically ranging from $50 to $205. The final cost depends on several factors, including your location, yard size, lawn shape, accessibility, grass type and length, and the frequency of service. Lawns with obstacles, steep slopes, or hard-to-reach areas may cost more. If a company charges by size, you can expect to pay between $0.01 and $0.06 per square foot, or $150 to $200 per acre.

A general breakdown of costs by lawn size is as follows:

• 3,500 square feet: $35–$210

• 5,000 square feet: $50–$300

• 10,000 square feet: $100–$600

• 1 Acre: $150–$200

• 2 Acres: $300–$400

• 3 Acres: $450–$600

• 4 Acres: $600–$800

• 5 Acres: $750–$1,000

• 10 Acres: $1,500–$2,000

• 15 Acres: $2,250–$3,000

Keep in mind that these prices generally cover routine maintenance like mowing and edging. Additional services such as raking leaves, weeding, trimming, or applying pesticides can add $400 or more to your total cost.

Both zoysia grass and bermuda grass are somewhat similar to St. Augustine because they’re all warm-season grasses. Beyond that, most grass types have unique properties that set them apart. Zoysia grass costs twice the price of St. Augustine grass on average and it has thinner blades and a deeper green appearance. Bermuda grass, compared to St. Augustine, has much thinner blades, is softer to the touch, and has a higher tolerance for colder weather.

Many experts say anytime before 10 a.m. is a good time to water grass, but this does depend a bit on the climate conditions where you live. For example, if you live in South Florida and it’s already 95 degrees by 7:30 a.m., it may simply be too hot to effectively water your lawn, regardless of what the time is.

When spring arrives, it’s best to hold off on mowing until temperatures have consistently reached a temperature of at least 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Attempting to mow grass that hasn't fully thawed from its winter dormancy can harm the delicate blades. Ensure your grass is dry before mowing and aim to mow when the grass is about three to four inches tall, trimming no more than one-third of the grass blade's height at a time. This timing encourages healthy growth and prevents shock to the grass, preparing your lawn for a happy, healthy growing season.
