"Victor was the most professional company that came to give me a bid. He was the only one who gave me a detailed written estimate. He took the time to completely ck my sprinklers made sure of what exactly needed to be repaired or replaced. Planted new flowers, plants & transplanted for me. All new soil where needed. The price was good. I would have been disappointed with any other company. He's charged me a good price for my monthly service. I will only hire him to do the back 1/2 acre. I highly recommend his service."

"Darvin and his crew did a fantastic job of land clearing of my property for a reasonable price. His crew were out working and got the job done quickly. They cleaned everything up around my property and treated it as if it was their own. I will definitely call on him again."

"I needed my irrigation system updated before the hot weather sets in. I met with Stephen from Scott's Landscaping on Wednesday, May 21st, and discussed what I needed done. Stephen started work on Thursday, the 22nd. He did a phenomenal job, and left the job site very clean. I am very happy with all aspects of the irrigation overhaul. I would definitely recommend Scott's Landscaping and would hire them again in the future."

"Quetzal Landscapes is honestly one of the best companies I’ve had the pleasure of working with. They built a fantastic looking and incredibly strong retaining wall in my backyard. I had a host of companies come out and bid and I’m so happy I ended up going with Quetzal. They were by far the best choice. Every person involved truly cared about the project and it shows in their end product. I will absolutely be calling Kris and Quetzal again the next project I want to do!"

"I received a phone call within minutes of requesting a quote. Mr. Ruiz came out the same day (Sunday). Showed him the problem on the surface. (Which was an irrigation problem) .He had to dig up some dirt and found the issue. After getting the parts to fix the problem, he showed up the next morning and not only did he complete the requested job. He fixed some wires someone else had cut doing another job. I was manually turning on the sprinklers and using the hose to water the grass. He looked at all my sprinkler heads. He set up the timer on the sprinkler system to ensure my system was working perfectly. The PRICE was RIGHT!! I was holding my breath on how much this would cost. After I paid for the services, I went inside and did a happy dance. I have funds left over to order take out for dinner. I also found out that he provides other lawn services like installing artificial turf and retaining walls. I will definitely hire again. I also appreciated that Mr. Ruiz wore a mask during this uneasy time. (Covid-19)"

"What a pleasure to work with a professional. Various conversations about types of sod, decorating, costs and time estimates. Suggested things I would have not thought of, I was going to buy a plant for the corner of the lawn, he said he would pick one up, was perfect. Color and type to do all I wanted. He was on time every morning. Was respectful and friendly with my dogs. I joked with Wes and said that when I came home I walked out front to check the address because the backyard was so BEAUTIFUL. Thank you Wes and Boney's Landscape for an incredible job. You are highly recommended."

"Jacob returned my call the same day. His bid was reasonable compared to the last time I had my eucalyptus tree cut but stump not removed. This time I had my grown ficus tree along with a small guava. The ficus roots has become unwieldy and threatening the new fence so it had to go, including the stump and roots! Sotelo Tree Service has a complete set of machines to do a complete tree removal - mulcher truck and a stump shredder tractor. Overall, I am satisfied 100%"

Lawn Irrigation questions, answered by experts

Fescue grass is a relatively low-maintenance grass type, meaning it doesn’t require much more attention than regular watering, dethatching, and mowing. Some fescues even grow slowly enough for hard-to-reach areas, particularly those inaccessible by the mower. Following a seasonal maintenance schedule will help your fescue lawn stay green, healthy, and durable for years to come.

This depends on the type of grass seed, as some types do better in different environmental conditions. Cool-season grasses go dormant during the summer months when the soil temperature exceeds 65 degrees Fahrenheit. Once exposed to regular doses of heat, the germination rates decline, with seedling death not far behind. 

As for warm-season seeds, they come from tropical parts of the world and thrive in heat. They actively grow in warm air temperatures between 70 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, and they prefer soil temperatures between 65 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Once temperatures dip and frost rolls in, if you don’t store them properly, warm-season grass seeds will die quickly.

In most municipalities, lawn care and mowing companies require at least a business license to operate legally. However, requirements can vary by location, and some areas mandate that landscaping companies be licensed, insured, and bonded, or even hold a general contractor license. Before hiring any lawn service, confirm they are fully insured. This protects you from liability for injuries on your property and also protects the company's employees. You can use Angi's state license lookup tool to verify a company's licensing status in your area.

Hiring a professional lawn care service is generally worth the cost, especially if you have limited free time. Lawn care professionals can ensure your lawn receives the vital nutrients it needs to grow and thrive, guaranteeing a healthy, beautiful, and well-maintained yard with professional-looking results. While some homeowners enjoy doing the work themselves, hiring a company frees up your schedule. The decision also depends on your budget and whether you already own the necessary lawn equipment, as doing the maintenance yourself can reduce monthly costs. Additionally, many lawn care companies offer other services like snow and leaf removal to keep your property in top shape year-round.

Shade-tolerant grass seed still needs between four and six hours of sun to germinate, and many types require a little extra care to thrive. However, it is possible to plant new grass seed in shaded areas when you choose the right variety.
