"We have been using JBC for mowing and maintenance for several years and have been pleased with the results. Last fall we had Jeff redesign/refresh our landscaping. He did a spectular job. This spring we are enjoying watch as our backyard becomes more spectacular as the season progresses. The colors, textures and variety of plants/shrubs that were used gives the yard a whole new and dynamic look. This spring we redid the front of the house landscaping. Looking forward to watching this area develop as well. Jeff knows what works in this area and by season. He is a landscape architect as well as providing a great lawn/maintenance service."

"I was very pleased at how promptly they responded to my request. They came out to access my job and reseeded my lawn with a protective layer of peat moss and I’m already seeing nice growth! I got an email for the quote which detailed the work and they also give you a guarantee of their work. Highly recommend!’"

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Dandelions, while hard to control and widespread across the country, are not typically categorized as noxious. Yellow starthistle, however, looks very similar to a dandelion and is highly damaging to local plants and invasive across the country.

Pulling weeds once per month is typically often enough to keep most weeds at bay. But in general, it's best to pull weeds as soon as you spot them to prevent deep root growth and slow their spread. To make it easier, plan your weed pulling after rain or after the sprinklers run so the soil will be nice and wet and the weeds will be easier to pull. If you notice moss accompanying weeds, make a plan to remove the moss immediately to prevent damage.

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.

It usually takes between two weeks and a month for weeds to fully die off after you spray them with herbicide, but they will start to wilt within the first week. Different weed sprays produce different results, with some working more quickly and effectively than others. Similarly, some weeds are killed more easily than others. Consult your weed removal pro for an exact timeline based on their weed removal method.

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.
