"I highly recommend Mike and his team! The services we requested were leaf removal, dead/fallen branch removal, bush trimming, garden bed trimming, edging, and final lawn cutting of the season. They were mindful of the yard toys we couldn’t put away, price was very reasonable, and our lawn looks AMAZING. Definitely give them a call for any lawn service."

"I can't say enough good things about Brian, who took care of this work for me. He returned my call promptly, listened carefully to what I needed, and was able to go out to my house within a few days to look at the space available for the two needed light fixtures. He then gave me excellent advice on the type of fixtures that would fit, and the exact sizees I needed to order, as well as what locations would work best for connecting them to the existing wiring. Using his advice, I was able to order the fixtures, which he then came out again to install. He obviously has good skills, but he was also prompt, efficient, honest, and very professional. I will not hesitate to contact him again when I need any further work done -- thanks Brian!"

"They were able to quickly diagnose the problem I was having with my lawn (chinch bugs), assessed the condition of the soil and explained the work that would need to be done to restore my lawn. They then returned three days earlier than anticipated to prepare and reseed my entire back lawn, leaving me with clear and detailed instructions for follow up care. The results have been amazing. My lawn has never looked so good. They are a bit pricy, but the results speak for themselves."

"I think they treated the wrong lawn. The note they sent me via text message referenced trees and shrubs in my yard, I have none. They also did not leave a yard marker showing they had been there. Otherwise, this would have been a 5 star review."

"Tradewinds is one of the best companies I have worked with. The show up on time and they did a wonderful job putting in a irrigation system in my backyard (they already had put one in my front yard years ago). Their installation pros are wonderful. They take their time explaining everything to you about the system, how to program it and Umberto even programmed mine for me. Thanks Umberto! GREAT COMPANY TO DO BUSINESS WITH!"

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Yes, but it depends on what you have planted in yours and the extent of the damage. Hardier shrubs and plants with droopy leaves have a better chance of bouncing back, but do go ahead and cut back any broken branches or damaged portions. Fertilizer can help, but wait until you spot new growth before you feed any plants. 

It typically takes six to 12 months for leaves to decompose entirely. The process involves the mulch composting into your lawn to deliver nutrients that facilitate grass growth. The recommended process is to spread a thick layer of leaf mulch over your garden and let it marinate for a few seasons for best long-term results.

If you have a lot of trees around your home, mulching all those leaves can smother the lawn. Air and light won't reach the grass and soil if too many leaves have been mulched. Turf grass and other lawn problems can arise if the weather is too wet and excessive leaves have been mulched.

The best way to landscape your front yard on a budget is to invest in hiring a professional for hardscaping—things like upgrading walkways, redoing driveways, and installing partitions around garden beds. You can often do the softscaping yourself—think laying down mulch, caring for your lawn, removing weeds, and planting flowers and shrubs. It’s also almost always worthwhile to pay a professional for routine yard maintenance, as this dramatically improves curb appeal and delivers above 100% ROI in most cases.

Unless it’s rubber or you need to prune suckers and remove weeds, you shouldn’t need to get rid of the old mulch around your tree. Simply push old mulch a few inches away from the trunk of your tree and then top it off with enough fresh mulch to reach 3 to 4 inches in height.
