"Alan and his crew did everything that I asked in a professional manner. I watched videos from YouTube that showed how professionals built retaining walls and installed patios and Limitless Landscape used the exact same techniques, performing the work carefully to assure high quality. However, I would advise anyone that has retaining wall work done using Highland blocks, or any blocks that are squared in the corners rather than rounded, to have the wall ends squared rather than rounded because of the way the blocks are shaped. Also, we had Unlimited install a wooden Pergola. They did an excellent job constructing it and it looks fantastic. At the end of the job, Alan and his crew erectedthe fencing that had been removed and replaced the damaged turf promptly. Alan is very conscientious and cares about pleasing the customer."

Lawn Care 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.

Mowing is very good for your grass. It encourages the grass to grow back thicker and healthier. Keeping a lawn thick and healthy will also block out weeds that could stop grass from growing. Cutting your grass on a regular schedule will ensure your lawn continues to grow healthier with each season.

Many experts say anytime before 10 a.m. is a good time to water grass, but this does depend a bit on the climate conditions where you live. For example, if you live in South Florida and it’s already 95 degrees by 7:30 a.m., it may simply be too hot to effectively water your lawn, regardless of what the time is.

You can mow a lawn the wrong way by cutting off more than ⅓ of the grass's height, causing stress to the lawn and weak roots. If you don't cut your grass often enough, you’ll get weeds and cause damage to your mower and grass. But if you regularly mow your lawn and create straight lines in alternating directions, you’ll see great results.

The best way to clean an overgrown yard is to create a multi-stage game plan, from clearing out the debris to cleaning up the edges around hardscaping and landscape curbing. Get rid of yard debris like worn furniture and broken tools first, then start trimming and raking what’s left. Mow the grass, trim the hedges, and rake leaves away. Once that’s complete, move on to more detailed work, like pulling weeds and replanting gardens.
