"My extensive project entailed new sod, irrigation, plantings and rock in the front yard. In the back yard, demo of a small patio, and pouring of a huge decorative concrete surface, plus new sod and irrigation. I plan to hire Alex next year to revamp the flower beds in the back as that piece had to wait. Alex and his team were absolutely outstanding. Attention to detail, such as the drainage system, and overall expertise resulted in a complete transformation. Pricing was competitive. Alex was very pleasant to work with. He listens and offers professional guidance. I highly recommend Hermanos Flores Gardening."

"Jose is a fast worker and very friendly. He has a little problem with English but his wife Martha is well versed in the English landguage and told him exactly what had to be done. We like the work he is doing so much that we requested he be our guardener on a regular basis. We called them for a Saturday appointment and they were a little late becuase of another comitment. But all worked out well. We agreed to them doing the job and they arrived on time on Tuesday morning. We didn't wait a week or two to get on their calendar. Within two hours the front yard looked as it it was almost done. Trees were trimmed, bushes removed and he was cleaning up and getting ready to go on with the rest of the job. We looked all over but many places didn't want to do small jobs like gardening or cleanup. Many Landscapers want the really big jobs.The entire cleanup cost was reasonable. We hired Jose to do our monthly garden for $80.00 a month . I think that is a reasonable amount considering some could cost alot more and do much less than what he is willing to do.

"Very polite and willing. Showed up on time. Did a good job cleaning the yard in minimum time time and performed a couple of extras for no cost. Included a large trailer for hauling yard waste away. I have hired them to mow on a regular basis and will employ them for extra improvements in the yard as money permits. They have my recommendation !"

"We hired Sam Singh through Angie’s List to take care of our sprinkler system, and we couldn’t be happier with the work. He was punctual, thoughtful, friendly, and really took the time to listen to what we needed. He replaced broken pipes and seals, removed sprinkler pathways that were no longer relevant, and made a number of repairs and adjustments that have our gardening sprinkler system working exactly the way we wanted. He clearly knows his work and was careful to make sure everything was functioning properly rather than just doing a quick fix. We also appreciated that he made thoughtful suggestions about a few other things we might want to consider, even though they weren’t services he personally provided. That really gave us confidence that he was looking out for what was best for our system rather than simply trying to sell us more work. We would absolutely recommend him. Professional, knowledgeable, personable, and genuinely helpful—a great experience from start to finish."

Lawn Care FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

DIY home gardening can be relaxing, joyful, and cost-effective. From mowing your lawn to planting your own flower beds, there is a wide variety of gardening tasks that you can do yourself to make your yard look beautiful. If you’d rather spend your time not in the dirt, or if you’d like someone to take care of your plants for you, calling a professional gardening service is best. They can give you a workup of what services you’ll need and how often to schedule them.

Yes! Fescue grass is a perennial that naturally regrows every spring. That’s why we recommend planting this grass variety in the spring to jump into the ideal growing and regrowing schedule. Keep in mind that fescue grasses thrive in cooler and transitional areas, so some species do best in moderate climates below 90 and above 50 degrees Fahrenheit.

A standard home lawn mower with sharp blades can handle a thin layer of leaves without issue. You may need to make a couple of passes within several days to mulch leaves down, but your mower shouldn’t struggle. If your mower comes with a mulching kit, like an attachment to blow leaves out the side, that’s a good sign it’s ready for fall leaves. Set your mower to the highest or near-highest height for this project so it focuses on the leaves rather than the grass below.
