"I hired Falcon Landscape for roof cleaning and weed removal. To their credit, the actual work was done carefully and the results looked good. The roof cleaning was thorough, and the yard was cleared effectively. The estimate for the work itself also seemed fair and reasonable. However, the experience was impacted by how cleanup and disposal were handled. After removing a large volume of weeds, they did not take the debris with them and instead asked me to dispose of it in my own trash bins. This resulted in over 15 bags of yard waste, which did not fully fit, and when they ran out of bags, they left the remaining weeds piled in the middle of my backyard. When I questioned this, I was told disposal was not included in the contract and would cost an additional $200. While I understand contract terms, weed removal in my experience includes disposal. This lack of upfront clarity felt misleading.Overall, decent work quality, but disappointing handling of cleanup and communication"

"Velasco Landscaping did an amazing job installing pavement at my property! From start to finish, the team was professional, efficient, and detail-oriented. The quality of the work exceeded my expectations, and the finished pavement looks fantastic—clean lines, solid craftsmanship, and it’s built to last. They were respectful of the space, cleaned up thoroughly after the job, and completed everything on time. I highly recommend Velasco Landscaping for anyone looking for top-notch paving work and reliable service. Definitely a 5-star experience!"

"I had an amazing experience with Nextera Landscape Solutions. I spoke to Noe and requested a quote and received a quote within minutes. I asked how quickly they could start and a worker was able to come out within hours. My sprinkler system was a mess and multiple sprinkler heads were broken and many parts of my lawn wasn’t being watered at all. As a result, much of my lawn had died. Miguel assessed my entire system and found remedies to ensure my entire lawn was watered. I’m getting ready to seed the lawn, so I am over the moon happy with the work Miguel did and Noe was extremely easy to work with as well. I would definitely work with them again."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Yellow patches, poor growth, or widespread weeds indicate a need for treatment. Soil testing can confirm nutritional deficiencies that require intervention.

Despite being moderately high-maintenance, St. Augustine grass is popular for several reasons. The biggest properties that make this grass a winner for southeastern lawns include its salt, heat, humidity, and shade tolerance. This grass species is excellent for coastal regions with high humidity, mild winters, and salty skies. It’s also easy to establish in yards.

Mowing at least once a week during the growing season is a good general rule. However, every lawn is different, and factors like frequent rain and fertilizer use can cause grass to grow faster, potentially requiring mowing as often as every four days. When you mow, always follow the 'one-third rule': never cut more than one-third of the grass blade's height at once, as this can weaken it and prevent it from taking in proper nutrients. For most grass types, the ideal height is around 2 to 3 inches, though some warm-weather grasses do better when kept shorter at about 1.5 to 2 inches.

In general, cool-season grasses such as fescue grass, ryegrass, and Kentucky bluegrass are best for creating a striped lawn. Warm-season grasses like bermuda and zoysia grass don't curl as much, so grass stripes aren't as easy to see. If you live in a climate that’s better suited for warm-season grass, zoysia grass will typically be your best option.

You should mow your lawn first and water it afterward, in most cases. You should not mow when your lawn it’s wet as it could clog the blades. If you haven't been watering your lawn for an extended time or your area is experiencing a drought, water your grass first. Mowing thin, wispy grass can be difficult, so allow it to become fuller and thicker before mowing. Once it looks more lush and dry, go ahead and mow.
