An estimate was provided the next day, and the price seemed more than fair. I agreed to it and Mike's crew were there the next morning taking care of everything with little disruption. Leaves were piled neatly for the city to vacuum (which they did that afternoon), beds were de-weeded, and the lawn provided with winterizing fertilizer. Mike came to check in afterwards and ensured the work was done. I assumed I would be mowing our property after the winter, but after the work that was done this week I'll definitely considering contracting Pontonio's Lawn Service to take care of it for us so we can focus on the gardening and just enjoy the lawn and landscaping.

I just usually send him an e-mail with questions or work I need and he will get back to me with an estimate. He met me in person earlier in the year to walk the property with me and let me know what services he could provide. My lawn was not in the greatest shape so his guys have now started putting down lawn treatment and cut it every week. I think its great that they don't just cut the grass really short and butcher it; they cut it at a very healthy looking level and nicely edge everything. Grass is growing in much better looking than in the past. I am so grateful to have found an honest lawn company. Prices very reasonable and work gets done when you need it.

FAQs for lawn care projects in Elsmere, DE
Depending on the areas that a lawn care company specializes in, most companies offer a core set of services that usually include:
Check with local lawn care companies to confirm that they offer the services you’re looking for.
The average cost to mow a lawn is about $125, ranging between $50 and $200 per cutting, depending on yard size. Other cost factors include the shape of your lawn, accessibility, lawn health, type of grass, length of grass, and frequency of the mowing schedule. The cost to cut your grass will also vary depending on where you live. If your landscaper has to maneuver around obstacles or deal with hard to reach areas and steep slopes, this will likely increase your total mowing costs.
Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.
When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
Landscaping costs around $3,500 but varies widely from $200 to $14,000. Factors that play a part in your final landscaping price tag include:
Location
Yard size
Project size
Materials
Land preparation
Type of landscaping
Considering so many factors, it’s not surprising that the overall costs can differ. A typical landscaping project is flower bed installation, which averages between $800 and $3,000. However, landscape lighting installation is a higher-end project, with a price tag of $2,000 to $6,000.
