"The work including the in-person estimate was completed within a 10 day period. Originally, I hired New Earth to change out the backyard control box for sprinkler. At the time I received a quote for setting up a drip sprinkler system for the front yard, which I pursued. All was completed within 10 days period. Experienced fast communication and good work. Would definitely recommend New Earth for sprinkler installation."

"I hired Adolfo to work on my mother's yard. He did an amazing job taking my design and adding his own touches to create what she calls her "oasis"! He went over and beyond to get everything detail right. The final design was much better than I dreamed. He is so patient and hard working. I'd recommend him to anyone looking for someone who can take their yard to another level."

"We hired Daniel Soto to thatch, aerate and fertilize our front and back yards (approximately 3,250 square feet). Soto and his crew arrived in the early morning and went to work and stayed until sun down in order to complete the job. It was a pleasure to work with Daniel and I highly recommend him for any lawn projects."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

In the fall, you should aerate the soil, overseed the bare spots, kill weeds, mow the lawn low, and rake your leaves. By boosting your lawn’s health in the fall, your grass will be stronger throughout the winter and come back healthier in the spring. You should also trim your perennials so that they withstand the winter and are ready for new growth in the spring. 

To prepare your lawn for core aeration, water it the day before you aerate. (Alternatively, you can wait until it rains and aerate the following day.) Aerating after watering or a rainy day will make the process easier since you can penetrate moist soil better than dry soil. You should also flag your sprinklers so that you don’t accidentally hit them while aerating. If you have a lot of thatch buildup in your yard, you might need to dethatch your lawn before aerating as well.

Some things you can do to prepare for yard work services are aerate the soil, fertilize your grass, keep weeds under control, regularly mow your lawn, and water your grass.

The cost to remove all bushes around a house can vary widely based on the size and number of bushes, their location, and the complexity of the removal process. Smaller properties with fewer or smaller bushes may cost less, while larger properties with numerous or larger bushes will cost more. Additionally, if any bushes are located in hard-to-reach areas, you’ll likely pay additional labor costs. To get an accurate cost estimate, it’s always a good idea to obtain quotes from local landscaping or tree removal services based on the specific needs of your property.

If possible, you should prioritize pulling weeds up by hand. However, be sure not to use your bare hands, as many weeds are sharp or otherwise irritating when they come in contact with skin. Always don thick, protective gardening gloves to protect your hands when you pull up weeds.
