"Arturo and his wonderful team have been incredible with our landscaping projects and grounds maintenance. For us they specialized in restoration of native plants and sustainable, organic gardening, which is hard to find! They have also helped with rock and mulch, sprinklers, pergola and tree trimming. They are reliable, reasonably priced, always professional and super courteous. Our neighbors now use them too based on what they've seen with our yard. I highly recommend this team!"

"Patrick contacted me for an appointment. He showed up when promised and was very friendly. He explained his business and what type of work his company does. He is very professional and found our problem within an hour. We needed a new controller for our irrigation system and he said he could get one and install it the next day. Appointment at 4 P.M. he showed up at 3:30. Replaced the old controller with and explained how to program and set everything. if I ever need a Landscape Contractor I need not look any further, I will just call Central Cal Landscaping. Great company and Patrick is a true professional, he is highly recommended by us."

"The work was not to be performed in the area where the contractors serviced. They should not be charged for the referral as the work was 200 miles from my home. The work was near Redding not Pebble Beach. I did not make any request for work in PB"

"Justin landscaped my entire property: front, back, and side yards after my home was destroyed in the CARR fire. He installed pavers in the front driveway and porch area as well as throughout the backyard (patio and walkways) These have LED lights to light up the walkways. He installed a most beautiful large pond with fountain. Put in sprinkler system, fence, and planter boxes. The yard is exactly what I asked for. Beautiful trees, flowers, shrubs, grass, retaining walls. It is my own little piece of paradise. I could not have asked for a better result. He is kind and professional, with a good work ethic. I highly recommend Justin."

"????? I can?t recommend Jimmy highly enough! He has helped me with numerous projects at my seaside home, from a major cleanup to building a greenhouse, and everything in between. His work has consistently been excellent, and he?s proven himself to be incredibly hardworking, efficient, dependable, and trustworthy. One of the things I appreciate most about Jimmy is the peace of mind that comes with knowing I can trust him to get things done right, even when I?m not there to oversee the work. He takes initiative, follows through, and genuinely cares about doing a great job. Beyond his work ethic and abilities, Jimmy is simply a great guy?friendly, honest, and a pleasure to work with. Finding someone with his combination of skills, integrity, and reliability is rare. I?m grateful to have found him and would enthusiastically recommend him to anyone looking for someone they can truly count on!"

Lawn Care FAQs, answered by experts

Stick to your watering schedule. As long as new grass is getting plenty of water from irrigation, it shouldn’t need watering right after you cut it. Watch for signs like yellowing grass that shows a new lawn isn’t getting enough water and needs more regular irrigation. If you want to water after mowing, wait until the afternoon. Hot, direct sunlight can scorch grass more easily when it’s wet, so it’s better to wait until the day has cooled off.

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.

The process to winterize your landscaping depends on the plants you have, but generally speaking, you should rake your lawn to avoid leaves from smothering your grass and leading to mold and fungi growth, wrap young trees to protect from fluctuating temperatures, and fertilize your lawn to provide some nutrients for the grass through the colder temperatures. You can also consider marking off small trees and shrubs to avoid accidentally damaging them with snow removal tools.

Starting a mowing business can be profitable if you manage your business wisely, calculate costs accurately, and invest in time-efficient, high-quality equipment. With good customer service, you can lock in loyal customers who invest in weekly lawn care services that turn your business into a successful one. 

Lawn care businesses can earn anywhere from $40,000 to over $100,000 per year depending on how you operate, but you’ll need to factor in the cost of equipment to determine your actual profit margins.

The first step is killing any current nutgrass plants, either through application of herbicides or sugar, by digging up the plants and rhizomes, or by using soil solarization. To discourage new nutgrass plants from forming, ensure proper landscape drainage and bring shade into areas of the lawn that are consistently damp.
