"Miguel Medina, his father, and his uncle are first rate at their craft. We purchased a 40 acre ranch that had not been maintained for an extended period of time. M&M came to the house, evaluated the property, prioritized projects, and executed their recommended maintenance improvements with energy, professionalism, integrity, and care. If I could give ten stars, that would not be enough. Thank you M&M!!"

"We had artificial turf installed in our back patio. Cristian was responsive, has a great attitude, and he was flexible scheduling our project. He and his team were professional, detailed, respectful, clean, and did an awesome job! It was an absolute pleasure to work with Cristian. He takes pride in his work and he implemented our vision for the project perfectly and had great suggestions along the way. We would highly recommend Cornejo Landscaping! Project scope involved removing pavers and existing turf and installing artificial turf and flagstone path."

"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."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

The average cost to mow a lawn is about $125 per visit, with prices typically ranging from $50 to $205. The final cost depends on several factors, including your location, yard size, lawn shape, accessibility, grass type and length, and the frequency of service. Lawns with obstacles, steep slopes, or hard-to-reach areas may cost more. If a company charges by size, you can expect to pay between $0.01 and $0.06 per square foot, or $150 to $200 per acre.

A general breakdown of costs by lawn size is as follows:

• 3,500 square feet: $35–$210

• 5,000 square feet: $50–$300

• 10,000 square feet: $100–$600

• 1 Acre: $150–$200

• 2 Acres: $300–$400

• 3 Acres: $450–$600

• 4 Acres: $600–$800

• 5 Acres: $750–$1,000

• 10 Acres: $1,500–$2,000

• 15 Acres: $2,250–$3,000

Keep in mind that these prices generally cover routine maintenance like mowing and edging. Additional services such as raking leaves, weeding, trimming, or applying pesticides can add $400 or more to your total cost.

It is not recommended to mow wet grass, including grass with morning dew. Mowing when wet can damage your lawn, your mower, and potentially cause injury. Wet grass blades are more likely to be torn rather than cut cleanly, which can lead to brown tips and increase the risk of fungal diseases. Additionally, wet clippings can clump together, smothering the grass underneath, and can clog your mower. For best results, wait until the grass is dry to the touch, which is often about two hours after morning dew has evaporated. Regular lawn mower maintenance is also important for a clean cut.

Planting grass from seed requires time to grow before it can handle even light foot traffic. Most varieties require a minimum of three months before you can walk on them regularly. You can expect to wait at least one year before your lawn can hold up to heavy use. Because sod is already established, it can be walked on more quickly than grass planted from seed.

St. Augustine is a hardy grass that’s relatively easy to grow, but it requires regular lawn maintenance to stay healthy. It’s best to keep up with a regular fertilization schedule during the growing season, plus a yearly dethatching to help it properly absorb air and moisture. Watering is also important, so be sure to water it enough to keep the soil moist.

Some things you can do to prepare for yard work services are aerate the soil, fertilize your grass, keep weeds under control, regularly mow your lawn, and water your grass.
