"Recently bought a beautiful old house with a neglected yard. It might once have been okay, but time had taken its toll. Jesse and his team helped me re-sculpt the lawn terrace, add and level the soil, and lay sod. Despite the scale of the work, we were watering the new law that evening."

"I want to personally let everyone know who might be looking for a repair or troubleshooting expert, Michael is the perfect fit for the job. We received estimates from three total companies, he was the most professional and straight to the point expert. His estimate was exactly the amount we paid and we were very pleased with that price. The level of professionalism from Michael and his crew (Roger/Mike/Chase) was amazing. They came at the requested time of our choice, no back and forth, straight to the point kind of business. Iâ m letting everyone on here know that they will be requesting the Robbins Landscaping company with confidence! Their work is exceptional, our grass is already showing signs of new life after they repaired the entire system for us. Please, I urge you to at the very least get an estimate from them. You and your family will NOT be disappointed. Amazing work, hard working crew, great attitude, exceptional pricing! Thank you for saving our lawn again, Michael!"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

You should not water your lawn every day, even in hot weather. For most lawns, watering one to three times per week is sufficient. It is best to water during a drought or when temperatures are high, but avoid watering in the middle of the day or if the temperature exceeds 95 degrees Fahrenheit. The extreme heat will cause the water to evaporate before the soil can fully absorb it. The best time to water is in the early morning at dawn or in the early evening (between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m.) when the temperature is cooler.

Water regularly, avoid heavy foot traffic, and clear debris promptly to support lawn health.

Start your search for a good lawn care company by finding some landscapers in your area; it might be a good idea to research companies that already work on your block, as they’re more likely to be able to fit you into their schedules, given your proximity. Next, conduct a search online to see if they have positive customer reviews, and try to avoid companies that have poor scores or a history of complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Finally, make sure to ask each company about pricing, contracts, scheduling, and any add-on services.

Costs depend on property size, service frequency, and additional tasks like aeration or overseeding.

While there’s no exact science to how often you should rake your leaves, a good rule of thumb to follow is to rake leaves every three to four days. However, you can rake more often or less often, depending on how quickly leaves are accumulating on your lawn.
