"Tony provided lawn services during the the summer which included mowing, weed whacking, leaf blowing, and grass removal. He did a phenomenal job and takes pride in what he does, and it shows. He also provided fall cleanup and leave removal for us as well, and again did a fantastic job with the clean up. Last year, he provided landscaping services which included installing plants in beds, and shoveling stone and mulch around them. Very efficient, reliable service at a reasonable price. We will definitely hire him again! Very satisfied with his work and how nice our lawn looks. 😀"

"We have used TLM for years to mow our lawn bi-weekly and bring leaves to the street for pickup by the town each autumn. The crew is uniformly punctual, polite, skilled and professional in every way. This is why hiring local businesses is the way to go. Thank you Total Lawn Management for great service."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Buffalo grass does not turn green as early in the spring as some other grasses. If you have a heavily shaded yard, buffalo grass may not receive enough sunlight to thrive. It’s not as dense as some other grass varieties, so it may not feel as comfortable on bare feet.

It’s not legal to intentionally damage a neighbor’s tree. Even if the roots of a tree encroach into your yard, if you damage or kill a tree that belongs to your neighbor, you can be held liable for the damage in most cases. Since herbicides can spread through the tree, causing damage to the whole tree and not just the roots that are on your side of the property line, you shouldn’t poison your neighbor’s tree. The other downside to this method is that if the tree dies, it can fall onto your property and cause more damage, so herbicides are best avoided in this circumstance.

Lawns with steep slopes can benefit from having quack grass. Quack grass's long roots and runners can help to prevent soil erosion on hillsides. Additionally, bird lovers may enjoy the fact that quack grass seeds are an attractive food choice for their avian friends.

Several tools exist that can help remove unwanted grass. The one you choose depends greatly on how much you need to remove and how hard you'd like to work. A sod or turf cutter is the fastest method while using a shovel is labor-intensive and much slower. You may also need a garden rake, tiller, and wheelbarrow. 

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.
