"Great company, very friendly, if you have questions their on it. Have had this company for 2yrs and my lawn looks GREAT, I was a self fertilizer type person and used what I thought was a high quality product but the lawn just did not respond to my expectations so I called Lawn Doctor after seeing my wifes friends lawn which they service. The cost is a little higher then doing it yourself but well worth it. I've gotten compliments from neighbors and people walking their dogs, so its not just me."

"Barry’s Seasonal Services did an excellent job taking care of our yard. Barry and his crew were responsive from the start, easy to communicate with, and very professional throughout the process. They not only handled the grass cutting and yard cleanup efficiently, but also took the extra step of sending photos to keep us informed and offering helpful recommendations for next steps. The quality of the work was strong, and everything was completed in a timely manner. On top of that, the pricing was very reasonable for the level of service provided. Overall, a reliable and courteous team that we would confidently recommend."

"I think they treated the wrong lawn. The note they sent me via text message referenced trees and shrubs in my yard, I have none. They also did not leave a yard marker showing they had been there. Otherwise, this would have been a 5 star review."

Lawns FAQs, answered by experts

There are several ways to decompose yard waste quickly. The first step is to move all debris into a compost bin or pile. From there, microorganisms, bacteria, and insects will break down the yard waste into compost. To speed things up, shred the waste into smaller pieces, add live worms to the pile, or introduce nitrogen-rich compost accelerators like grass clippings, coffee grounds, and manure. Turn the compost over every few days. This process, called aerating, allows oxygen to get in and accelerate decomposition.

Yes, it's perfectly safe and environmentally sound to mulch leaves with a lawn mower, provided that the layer of leaves isn't too thick and the leaves are dry and crispy. Too many wet leaves get sticky and will clog the mower. Thick layers of leaves can suffocate the lawn after the leaves have been mulched, so the layer should be no more than six inches thick.

Some states have bans on disposing of yard waste in plastic bags in landfills. Yard waste takes up space in landfills and releases methane gas when disposed of improperly. It's best to repurpose it naturally to benefit your garden and the environment.

Yes, many companies recycle concrete, metal, and other materials to minimize landfill waste.

In most cases, it’s better to remove rocks before adding mulch. Layering the two will restrict drainage and plant health, and can create an unpleasant texture underfoot.
