"Fantastic! My lawns are beautiful because of the way they cut the grass plus sweep up the bits of grass on the sidewalks. Many times they will cut the top of a huge Bush that is nicely cleaned then. Also, he is on time each week!"

"I couldn’t be happier with the service I received from John Wilson Landscaping and Gardening. From the very first consultation, John was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about transforming outdoor spaces. He listened carefully to my ideas and offered creative suggestions that truly elevated the final design. The team was punctual, respectful, and worked efficiently throughout the entire project. Every detail—from the lawn to the flower beds and stone pathways—was executed with precision and care. The end result completely exceeded my expectations. My garden looks absolutely stunning now, and I’ve received so many compliments from friends and neighbors. If you’re looking for someone reliable, skilled, and truly dedicated to their craft, I highly recommend John Wilson Landscaping and Gardening. You won’t be disappointed!"

"I had really lit my side yard and backyard go. There was a lot of junk including old moldy carpeting, two old broken down recliners, patio furniture, tree trimmings, rotten apples, and sidewalks so overgrown with shrubbery you couldn’t walk through there. All the flower beds were covered with dead grass and weeds. I just want it all the junk removed but Kevin Sanchez said his crew could do that but they could also straighten up my gardens and make it look pretty again. I was skeptical, but I liked his vibe so I hired them. I couldn’t have been more shocked when I saw that not only was all the junk gone trees were trimmed and the flowerbeds had been restored and rejuvenated with freshly turned over topsoil. and it was a great value. Kevin brought his team and they attacked my backyard with fervor and it was obvious they were there to get the job done with the least hassle possible. They even checked with me on a couple of items to make sure I really wanted to get rid of it.I appreciate"

Customers say: True professional

"Cornejo Landscaping installed turf and border stones in our backyard. The installation was detailed with curves and bends for natural look using border stones and DG for a beautiful finish. We were very impressed with Christian Cornejo and his team as it was evident that they were skilled professionals. We were, in fact, so impressed with Cornejo Landscaping that we then hired them to replace our ugly old broken concrete driveway with beautiful tumbled stone pavers surrounded by DG and California Gold. We collaborated with Christian on the driveway layout and he provided excellent guidance on the design and presented cost saving options to work with our budget. The driveway demo and installation was exact and professional. We are 100% satisfied with the results and many of our neighbors have stopped by to comment on how beautiful the driveway looks. We highly recommend Cornejo Landscaping for any general construction and landscape needs. We would not hesitate to hire them in the future."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Cut your lawn a bit shorter before the winter, typically between 2 and 2½ inches, depending on the variety of grass. On average, the best height to cut grass typically falls between 2 and 3 inches throughout the year. Aim for the shorter side of this range when you mow for the last time of the year to avoid common winter lawn diseases and moisture issues.

Yes, it's perfectly safe and environmentally sound to mulch leaves with a lawn mower, provided that the layer of leaves isn't too thick and the leaves are dry and crispy. Too many wet leaves get sticky and will clog the mower. Thick layers of leaves can suffocate the lawn after the leaves have been mulched, so the layer should be no more than six inches thick.

Many gardeners charge an hourly rate for their services, and your total cost will depend on the amount of services and the experience of the gardener. Gardeners with basic experience charge between $20 and $30 per hour, while a more experienced gardener can charge as much as $60 to $88 per hour.

The cost of lawn mowing is about $125, which you might need on a weekly or biweekly basis. However, the cost of soil testing averages about $1,450, which should only be done every three to five years. 

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.

Lawns can be high maintenance, and therefore require regular spending if you’re not up for doing certain lawn care tasks yourself. But you can save time and money on lawn maintenance by mulching, composting, and planting species native to your area, so they keep alive with less ongoing TLC from you.
