"On Saturday, June 9, 2018, I hired A&A Lawn Care to do a HUGE job of cleaning-up an ENORMOUS amount of ivy that had overgrown and overtaken most of the tall trees and bushes in my VERY LARGE backyard!!! Not only did the guys remove ALL the overgrown ivy in my immediate yard, but they climbed up into the trees and onto VERY tall ladders and removed the ivy that was NOT only in MY trees, but they removed ALL the ivy from the trees in the yards adjacent to my yard so that the ivy wouldn't become overgrown again!!! Needless to say, I was ELATED and so were ALL my surrounding neighbors!!! I've worked BOTH construction AND landscaping when I was younger and I can tell you, these guys worked their behinds off!!! Not only did they do SUCH a BEAUTIFUL job, but they THOROUGHLY cleaned-up after they were finished!!! Also, these guys were a GREAT PLEASURE to work with!!! I was SO IMPRESSED by their work and work ethic that, I hired them to do the FINAL landscaping on BOTH my front and backyards!!! Thank-you A&A Lawn Care for doing SUCH an AMAZING job!!! God Bless You, Julie Mc-T., Salida, Ca."

"I have hired a couple of other handymen through the years that might fix one or two sprinklers for a fee. This company fixed or added additional sprinklers to make sure all flowerbeds and grass are covered with water. They also fixed a broken pipe, replaced two irrigation valves and much more. Iâ m extremely happy with their work."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

To remove old grass effectively, you typically need to dig to one to two inches. This depth typically allows you to reach the root system of the grass, ensuring thorough removal. However, if the grass is a particularly dense or deep-rooted variety (such as Bermuda grass), or if you're planning to replace it with a different landscaping feature, you may need to dig deeper to loosen the soil and remove any underlying roots.

In the fall, you should aerate the soil, overseed the bare spots, kill weeds, mow the lawn low, and rake your leaves. By boosting your lawn’s health in the fall, your grass will be stronger throughout the winter and come back healthier in the spring. You should also trim your perennials so that they withstand the winter and are ready for new growth in the spring. 

Pruning bushes will encourage new growth and flowering and keep them hardy. Removing dead and diseased branches is vital to your bush's health. It can also deter pests from infesting your bushes. Not only is it beneficial to the bushes, trimming and shaping them will make your lawn look lush and polished.

Yes, especially for properties focusing on curb appeal. A well-maintained landscape supports visual and environmental attractiveness, potentially increasing desirability.

There are tools known as “sprinkler donuts” that are specially designed to aid in cutting the grass around your sprinkler heads by protecting them from your mower or weed whacker. You can also use a pair of hand shears to do the job manually if you’re willing to get a little dirty.
