"Pedro promptly met with me last Fall during the busy season of sprinkler winterization for existing customers. We reviewed my older irrigation system then discussed maintenance and upgrade options. He quickly grasped my needs, provided an affordable quote, and recommended that work best performed in the Spring. I also received two other quotes. I had Juarez Sprinkler perform the work in early May. Though material costs went up, Pedro honored the quoted price. He and assistant worked quickly and neatly, weaving through mature lawn and garden beds on a hilly landscape. They were able to accommodate the additional work I requested on-site, even making a quick trip to a parts supplier to fit with my older system. He told me to wait on replacing my controller to get more features - prices were high and my existing unit worked well enough."

"In August as usual, Ronaldo's pruning crew did an excellent job of pruning. They do not just cut the top off the bushes but actually shape them. They also do a great job of edging and they make sure there is not too much mulch piled up around the trees. They are experts in weeding as thee do not just weed wack the weeds but actually pull them out one by one. When they were finished, there was not one weed left in the yard. This year they also got rid of some poison ivy."

"Jorge and his 3-man crew worked hard for 9 solid hours tackling my mother’s extremely overgrown yard that she wouldn’t let us touch for a decade. They weeded over ten huge gardens and even planted some flowers in them before mulching. The bushes were so overgrown that her yard looked like a rainforest! We were all amazed at what miracles they performed. We used them to surprise my mother for her 85th birthday and she couldn’t believe how they were able to get the yard to look close to what it was years ago. She thanked them throughout the day for their hard work and professionalism. Jorge was right on time and gave me a quote the day I called him. I am going to use his company monthly to upkeep his beautiful work!!"

"Jose was responsive, courteous, and efficient. We originally hired him for a yard cleanup but the job expanded to cleaning out a large bed of poison ivy and replacing 2 shrubs. Jose and crew not only did a great job but they cleaned up their work and took away some rocks and other debris. Jose also gave us referrals for other service providers, much appreciated. We will certainly hire him again."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Very carefully. You should be cautious when using any of the above methods, as any one of them could lead to you accidentally killing desired grasses and plants. However, there are selective herbicides that can target certain plants over others. Look for a product that only affects the type of weeds you want to eliminate and spares the plants you want to keep.

The best time to hire a weed service company is in the early spring. This allows them to apply a pre-emergent weed killer that stops weeds from taking root, making maintenance for the rest of the season much easier. Following the initial spring application, a monthly service through the summer and early fall is a good idea for ongoing weed control. These regular treatments, combined with manual removal or spot treatment, should be sufficient to maintain a weed-free yard. Alternatively, you can hire a professional in the fall for the following year, as some companies may offer better rates on contracts signed before the busy spring season.

The main problem with crabgrass is that it produces thousands of seeds that can remain dormant until the following season. To get rid of it, you have to remove existing plants before they have a chance to spread seeds and stop old seeds from germinating.

Mowing your grass regularly, especially if you’re mowing close to the ground, can help kill Johnsongrass. Frequent mowing helps limit the spread of Johnsongrass and can even deplete carbohydrate reserves in rhizomes over time. The more time you leave in between mowing, the more likely Johnsongrass is to regrow and take over your lawn. 

Herbicide application, manual removal, and landscape fabric are common approaches.
