"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

Tipping is not mandatory, but is a nice gesture if you are satisfied with the service your lawn professional provided. The amount you should tip depends on your area, service, and time of year. Typically, most people tip between $10 and $100 per crew member. For minor services, people tend to tip less than large jobs.

Clearing land can be incredibly challenging, depending on various factors like the size of the area, the density of vegetation, and the presence of obstacles, such as rocks or stumps. Handling smaller vegetation and brush might be manageable with the right tools and preparation. However, tasks like removing larger trees or dealing with extensive overgrowth may require specialized equipment, expertise, and safety precautions.

Always begin by removing large debris, leaves, and branches from your lawn to make room for the rest of your lawn maintenance checklist. Move on to mowing, weeding, and edging in the spaces between your lawn and garden. Lastly, clean off all hardscapes, porches, and patios for a fresh and tidy appearance.

It’s unlikely your leaves are a hazard, especially if you get to them while they’re dry. However, a couple of rare risks exist. University studies suggest that decaying leaves can produce organochlorines, toxic pollutants similar to man-made PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls), so avoid keeping them in an enclosed area.

Also, leaves and compost may cause the growth of fungi that can cause diseases like histoplasmosis and aspergillosis, as well as mold spores that are unhealthy for human lungs. Again, severe issues are rare, but those with compromised immune systems or allergies to mold should wear face masks when directly handling leaves.

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.
