Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

The average professional lawn mowing cost is $120 per visit, but the cost can range from $50 to $200, depending on factors like lawn size, frequency of service, and grass height. If your lawn mowing company charges by square foot, you can expect to pay $0.01 to $0.06 per square foot or $150 to $200 per acre. Keep in mind that these prices only include routine lawn maintenance, including mowing and edging. You could pay $400 or more for additional services, like raking leaves, weeding garden beds, trimming trees, and applying pesticides or weedkillers.

If the grass is dead, you cannot bring it back to life. However, you can grow new grass in its place or try the methods mentioned above to revive the grass if it isn’t entirely dead. You can expect St. Augustine grass to come back after moderate droughts, but it will suffer significant nutrient loss after an extended period of drought.

Always mow the lawn on a short setting when overseeding. The thinner coverage offers more space for the grass seed to take root in the soil. When reseeding a lawn, however, you may need to remove your old turf altogether.

Signs of overwatering in your lawn can include waterlogged or soggy soil, a perpetually damp surface, the presence of mushrooms or fungi, and grass that appears yellow or wilted. Overwatered grass often feels mushy underfoot, and you may notice an increase in pests like grubs. To avoid overwatering, ensure proper drainage with periodic lawn aeration and adjust your watering schedule to match your lawn's actual needs.

Yes, many pros leave clippings, as they break down quickly, enhancing your lawn’s nutrient profile without extra effort from you.
