"Very professional and very neat. There was very minor lawn damage, but there was some in the areas where they did the stump grinding. I was somewhat disappointed that lawn repairs were not part of the bid. Iâ ll still give them 5 stars and certainly use them again!"

"Royal arrived on time. I had not yet put out flags to mark sprinkler heads and they took over the job while I activated each zone. Aeration was done competently and completely with out tearing up lawn. Driveway was blown clean before they left. Highly recommend this company. Larry Chappel Brewster MA"

"The crew is friendly and hard-working. Job, the manager, listens and takes care of all the details we discussed. They got the job done in less time than expected and left the yard cleaner than when they started. I was so impressed with the quality of their work, I requested a quote for mulching and lawn mowing. Lais is the new office manager. She's friendly, professional, customer focused and thorough. She has an accounting background so she is great at dotting the I's and crossing the T's. I would highly recommend them."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

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.

Lawns can be high maintenance, and therefore require regular spending if you’re not up for doing certain lawn care tasks yourself. But you can save time and money on lawn maintenance by mulching, composting, and planting species native to your area, so they keep alive with less ongoing TLC from you.

Buffalo grass spreads through both underground roots and above-ground stolons. The widespread root and stolon system makes up for this grass’s overall lack of density. It’s a hearty grass, so it spreads on its own slowly, especially considering that most of the male (no staminate) varieties of grass are sterile. You may think about over-maintaining your lawn to encourage growth, but this would have the opposite effect.

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.

Ultimately, pulling weeds vs. spraying them depends on what’s happening in your yard and your personal preferences. Manual weed removal doesn’t introduce any chemicals into your landscape, targets specific problematic plants, produces immediate results, can be free if you go the DIY route, and is inexpensive with a weed service if you only have a handful of weeds. On the other hand, spraying is often preferable for severe weed infestations and situations involving difficult-to-pull weeds because it treats multiple weeds at once, is usually more effective long-term, is less time-consuming, and costs less when done by a pro.
