"Turf care did a great job of repairing/revitalizing my damaged lawn. I have 2 big dogs, so I appreciated the fact that they use milder/less harmful products. So, while it did take a number of trips before I began to see positive results, I'm quite happy with the way my yard looked at the end of the season, I have renewed the contract for 2020"

"Great company and service. Hired them last year to care for our lawn after a previous bad relationship and service from another lawn company. ExperGreen fixed the previous problems and now our lawn looks healthy, strong and GREEN! They come as expected and consistently provides us with great service."

"In March of â 21, my husband and I finally decided that we reached our limit to looking at our front yard which had become quite unattractive and overgrown from hedge rows planted 19 years ago. Without shape, form and absent of any color, we knew we needed to start over. We called several landscape companies including D&D Landscaping. Dean came out a week later and right away, Rich and I knew that he was the person we wanted to work with. He was straight-forward, extremely fun, very personable, and highly knowledgeable about the business of landscaping. He surveyed the lawn and came up with a plan that at first blush, seemed a bit overcrowded with plantings for the size of the lot. I will add that I know next to nothing about flowers, plants, bushes and the like and my artistic vision does not extend to landscaping. Dean asked us to trust him, and boy, are we glad we did! He had a vision of what our space would look like and he delivered a gorgeous reality, with flowering bushes and two trees in a beautiful design that is perfect for the size of our front yard and will provide ever changing color throughout the year. The work was done in two days. He and his amazing, friendly crew removed the old grass and overgrown bushes in one morning and did all the planting including new sod, accent lighting and underground watering system on day two in under five hours. We are absolutely thrilled! We highly recommend D&D Landscaping! We will be using Dean again for further projects down the road, as we continue to get the pleasure of looking out our window admiring our lawn and enjoying passersby doing the same."

"R.R.V. Landscaping is a very professional and superior landscaping company. Their overall customer service and pricing is exceptional from the moment of first contact to completing the job. They completed spring cleanup, mulching, laid down a low brick border wall around our vegetable garden just as we asked, and the end result was beautiful. They also trimmed our bushes and mowed our lawn. Raul was very timely in texting me back whenever I had a question and is easy to work with. We look forward to continuing our business with them in the future, which will include weekly mowing/trimming, all season cleanup and lawn treatments. My husband and I highly recommend this landscaping company."

"We had two large, unruly trees that were blocking the sun, dropping maple helicopters everywhere, and giving raccoons access to the roof. Gabe and his coworker came out with their lift-truck and woodchipper, and took care of them in just a few hours. The yard was cleaned up afterwards - a job well done. We'll definitely hire him again!"

"Katlyn and her Auto-Rain team were nothing but wonderful to deal with! I wish all contractors work like her and her company! I initially wanted to complete the irrigation system on my entire lawn but due to other circumstances I had to decrease my budget. Mind you, Auto-Rain's estimate was the best price of all my estimates! Katlyn worked with me and I decided that my budget could only afford the front lawn area. I also referred my neighbor to Auto-Rain so we ended up doing our installations together. Next year, I will definitely have Auto-Rain back to finish up the rest of my lawn! Thank you Katlyn and entire Auto-Rain team!"

Customers say: Super punctual

"We recently hired Green City Gardens for a landscaping project and we couldn't be happier with the results! JD's knowledge about plants and design is so impressive. He took the time to listen to our vision and made excellent recommendations based on our layout, local climate, and soil conditions. JD and his team's attention to detail was also impeccable. They were incredibly thorough in every aspect of the project, from preparing the soil to ensuring proper drainage. They worked efficiently but took the time needed to get everything just right. I especially appreciated how they kept the workspace clean and organized throughout. In addition to their technical skills, their customer service was outstanding. They communicated clearly, kept us informed about progress, and were always open to our input. I felt like they truly cared about making sure we were happy with the final product—and we absolutely are! If you're looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and skilled landscaper that is in a class of their own, I highly recommend JD at Green City Gardens. He transformed our outdoor space into something beautiful, and we couldn't be happier!"

Lawn Care FAQs, answered by experts

No, carpetgrass and St. Augustine grass are two different species. However this is a very common misconception and you may even find St. Augustine grass is mislabeled as carpetgrass. Carpetgrass does not have as much shade tolerance as St. Augustine grass, and has narrower blades with an alternating pattern (while St. Augustine grass has an opposite pattern). St. Augustine grass doesn’t have the weedy, high seedheads that carpetgrass produces.

Lawn mower blades should be sharp enough that you can feel the sharpened edge, but not sharp enough to cut you when you touch them. Over-sharpening blades to a fine, razor-edge poses a safety risk and decreases the blade's life because it causes extra wear; the thinner edge is sharper but weaker and will require more frequent sharpening.

Depending on the method you choose to remove grass, it may or may not matter whether the grass is wet or dry when you perform the task. A dryer lawn will be easier to negotiate with a sod cutter, especially if you're not planning to reuse the turf. However, using a shovel by hand might be a little easier if the ground is slightly damp but not so much that it sticks to the tool.  

DIY home gardening can be relaxing, joyful, and cost-effective. From mowing your lawn to planting your own flower beds, there is a wide variety of gardening tasks that you can do yourself to make your yard look beautiful. If you’d rather spend your time not in the dirt, or if you’d like someone to take care of your plants for you, calling a professional gardening service is best. They can give you a workup of what services you’ll need and how often to schedule them.

They handle labor-intensive tasks efficiently, equipping your lawn for seasonal changes without physically demanding work on your part.
