"Marcie and the team at Jones Lawn are true professionals. Friendly, affordable, on time, and they do great work. Iâ d recommend them to anybody. Thereâ s no better feeling than NOT having to worry about anything, and the yard always looking perfect. They started out taking care of my older mothers yard, and they now do 3 of my properties, I think that says it all!!"

"Amador and Green Touch Lawn Care did a wonderful job on my front yard. It was filled with patches of weeds that were going to turn into foxtails and prickly spikes. They de-weeded/uprooted everything and then carefully tilled my entire front yard and surrounding areas. It is now ready to plant a new lawn and further landscaping. They don’t know this yet but I’m going to see if they can fit me in for another job (tree removal) because they did such a great one the first time. Highly recommend."

Lawn Care FAQs, answered by experts

As a beginner, start by mowing your lawn in symmetrical rows by turning the mower at the end of each row and overlapping with the previous row. Use an edging tool or weedwacker to make your lawn look sharp and crisp around the edges, and then sweep the debris back into the yard. Take it slow, and know that you can adjust your approach or pattern the next time your grass needs a clip.

No, it isn’t illegal, but many cities and towns have noise ordinances that it could violate. Either way, it can still cause problems if it bothers your neighbors. For motor-powered lawnmowers, the general consensus for common courtesy is to wait until after 8 a.m. to mow your lawn. However, if you have a push mower, you should be safe to mow at any time of day, provided you don’t make excessive noise in other ways.

Yes, it's common for lawns to look bare after dethatching. Dethatching brings soil to the surface to create a "bald" look on your lawn. While you may choose to patch or reseed your lawn if bare patches seem excessive, it's normal for a lawn to look bare after dethatching. With the layer of debris that was blocking water, nutrients, and air from reaching your grass now gone, your lawn is likely to grow better than ever.

If your grass is stressed from being over-trimmed, try watering it heavily and then allowing it to recover for at least two weeks before mowing again. If you notice brown patches where the grass has died off because it’s too short, you should remove the dead grass and overseed the area. Leaving dead patches can invite weeds and other problems, so if you want a totally green lawn, getting rid of dead patches should include removing the dead sections before reseeding the area.

Professional lawn care can increase your home’s value, as it beautifies your exterior and improves curb appeal. Potential buyers who pull up to a house that looks neat and clean will get a great first impression, and savvy buyers will know that a well-maintained exterior is probably indicative of proper care for other things, like electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems. Ultimately, a lawn that’s professionally cared for can boost your home’s appearance and lead buyers to offer more for your house.
