"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!"

"Tyler from TMD Irrigation Service was prompt, polite and professional. He accurately diagnosed an electrical issue with our sprinkler valves, repaired two leaking valves and got our system working perfectly in less than an hour. He also walked the property looking for any other sprinkler issues and made a couple of helpful suggestions on how to get the most out of our aging sprinkler system. He is intelligent, honest, efficient and affordable. I've worked with a number good of Irrigation/Lawn Sprinkler professionals over the years. Tyler is one of the best."

"Bajascapes gave a fair price and finished the work as contracted. They worked with our design, listened to input on the materials, made recommendations and crafted a beautiful backyard space. We hired them again to rebuild a front garden bed and replace wood siding that was damaged from dry rot. Would absolutely work with them again."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

The frequency of gardening service visits depends on two significant factors—the service and your budget. If you’re a gardening DIYer and only need someone to check on your plant's health quality, you might not need many visits throughout the year. However, if you love the idea of a garden but don't have the time or patience to plant, water, and maintain your garden, you might need weekly visits (or more, depending on the weather).

The first step is killing any current nutgrass plants, either through application of herbicides or sugar, by digging up the plants and rhizomes, or by using soil solarization. To discourage new nutgrass plants from forming, ensure proper landscape drainage and bring shade into areas of the lawn that are consistently damp.

You can fertilize right after mowing as long as you've collected the clippings. If you leave grass clipping, they can form a mat that prevents the fertilizer from reaching the soil. Plus, grass clippings are rich in nitrogen, so if you leave them and then apply fertilizer, you can end up with too much nitrogen in the soil.

Periodic checks for erosion and proper drainage function ensure lasting results.

If maintained correctly, natural grass should last between five and 15 years, or up to several decades, depending on your home’s climate conditions. You can extend your grass’ lifespan by treating it well, including regular mowing, weeding, watering, and preventative pest control. Consider hiring a local lawn care service to provide everything your grass needs to live a long, healthy life.
