"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."

"The installation of our new home’s sprinkler system in 1990 was flawless. After the installation American National Sprinkler turned our system on in the spring, drained & shut down in the fall, and serviced our system for 30 years. Pricing was always fair. I never felt like they were trying to overcharge. Their service employees were always professional, courteous, and prompt. Customer service was the same and helpful. Our lawn always looked GREAT. Friends, and family always asked why - my response was fertilizing but mostly due to my AMERICAN NATIONAL sprinkler system."

"Almanza is the best in the area, I've learned the hard way. Had them as regulars for landscaping a few years back. They were great for the most part - Raul was excellent at doing extra jobs (paving, tree-cutting) fast and prompt at very reasonable prices. The yard looked great. However, when fall cleanup came, the crew left a lot of debris behind. During the summer, they also trimmed stuff I asked them not to trim and didn't trim what I wanted them to. I chalked it up to the crew though. Raul has always been great and I complained to him about it, noting I couldn't renew the contract with the same weekly crew. Not hearing from him about a different crew, I too hastily terminated the contract. BIG mistake. Subsequent lawn care and landscape specialists have been totally abysmal compared. I've learned that the weekly crews of any company are not as honest, hardworking, scrupulous, etc. as the owners but you have to put up with that stuff. It's just part of the game apparently. Looking back, aul's crew wasn't perfect, but they were a lot better than any others I've had. If you have him as a landscaper, keep him. A good dude. I've regretted my action more every year."

"I bought a house that had been neglected for sometime. As a gardener, it needed lots of work. I now have perennial beds, which are edged and mulched. They buried my gutter drains and it didn’t even looked disturbed. Their lawn maintenance is prompt and well done. They are professional and very responsive. They do all sorts of outside work related to landscaping."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

The average cost to mow a lawn is about $125 per visit, with prices typically ranging from $50 to $205. The final cost depends on several factors, including your location, yard size, lawn shape, accessibility, grass type and length, and the frequency of service. Lawns with obstacles, steep slopes, or hard-to-reach areas may cost more. If a company charges by size, you can expect to pay between $0.01 and $0.06 per square foot, or $150 to $200 per acre.

A general breakdown of costs by lawn size is as follows:

• 3,500 square feet: $35–$210

• 5,000 square feet: $50–$300

• 10,000 square feet: $100–$600

• 1 Acre: $150–$200

• 2 Acres: $300–$400

• 3 Acres: $450–$600

• 4 Acres: $600–$800

• 5 Acres: $750–$1,000

• 10 Acres: $1,500–$2,000

• 15 Acres: $2,250–$3,000

Keep in mind that these prices generally cover routine maintenance like mowing and edging. Additional services such as raking leaves, weeding, trimming, or applying pesticides can add $400 or more to your total cost.

Cut your lawn a bit shorter before the winter, typically between 2 and 2½ inches, depending on the variety of grass. On average, the best height to cut grass typically falls between 2 and 3 inches throughout the year. Aim for the shorter side of this range when you mow for the last time of the year to avoid common winter lawn diseases and moisture issues.

Bermuda grass may be drought-resistant, but it still needs to be watered once or twice a week. The suggested amount of water Bermuda grass needs varies from season to season. Bermuda grass needs about 1 inch of water a week in summer, fall, and winter; it needs up to ¾ inch in spring.

Avoid watering your plants once temperatures regularly reach freezing temperatures or lower. Water won’t make it down to the roots at that point—it’ll just freeze to the topsoil level.

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.
