"Originally they responded right away.  He was very nice and explained what he would do.  We agreed on a price and about a week later they showed up to install the system.  They hit the phone cable so I was without phone/TV/Internet for a while but they accepted responsibility and AT&T came out the next day and made repairs so it wasn't that big of a deal.  The sprinkler system worked great.  The weed killer attracted more weeds than killing them so I just put down my own and that took care of them.  They stated they would come back out in or around November to winterize the system.  The end of October I called both the cell phone and office phone along with a text and no response. I tried again in November, still no response.   I ended up having to call another company to come out and winterize the system.  I was happy in the beginning but in the end, I had to go with someone else.

"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!"

"Louis and his team were exceptional ! I needed brush removed along a fence line across our backyard. Everything they did was perfect. They showed up on time, they did the work efficiently and with care. They finished the job quickly, cleaned up very well and left our yard looking so improved, all within a reasonable budget. The team was professional and worked with a kind and friendly attitude. I will certainly hire them again for future projects!"

Hector and his crew are talented and will work within your needs. Hector is a business man who truly cares about his customers and will offer professional advice but not force things on you.

"Alan did an amazing job retooling our entire yard including all the new lighting and front retaining wall and new plants and shrubs. I created something I wanted using AI and told Alan to make it match as much as possible. Alan is incredibly professional and responsive. He takes pride in his work and lives up to everything he promised in terms of customer service. I wanted to also support Alan as a law enforcement professional as well. You will see from the photos it was a major overhaul and Alan did an amazing job. We will hire Alan again for routine work season after season. Such a nice guy with great customer service skills."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

To reduce landscaping costs, you can implement several strategies at every stage. Consider doing the work yourself (DIY) to save on professional labor fees. You can also repurpose existing features and materials from other home projects. When purchasing new items, choose more inexpensive materials and opt for softscaping over hardscaping where possible. Another effective method is to buy young plants or plant from seed, which is more cost-effective than purchasing mature plants.

You should mow your lawn first and water it afterward, in most cases. You should not mow when your lawn it’s wet as it could clog the blades. If you haven't been watering your lawn for an extended time or your area is experiencing a drought, water your grass first. Mowing thin, wispy grass can be difficult, so allow it to become fuller and thicker before mowing. Once it looks more lush and dry, go ahead and mow.

As a beginner, start by mowing your lawn in symmetrical rows by turning the mower at the end of each row and overlapping with the previous row. Use an edging tool or weedwacker to make your lawn look sharp and crisp around the edges, and then sweep the debris back into the yard. Take it slow, and know that you can adjust your approach or pattern the next time your grass needs a clip.

Mow before aeration. After you've aerated the lawn, you can fertilize, water, and overseed. But wait at least two weeks after aeration before you mow.

In general, cool-season grasses such as fescue grass, ryegrass, and Kentucky bluegrass are best for creating a striped lawn. Warm-season grasses like bermuda and zoysia grass don't curl as much, so grass stripes aren't as easy to see. If you live in a climate that’s better suited for warm-season grass, zoysia grass will typically be your best option.
