Customers say: True professional

"Schedule your lawn care with Lawn Therapy, LLC IMMEDIATELY! I reached out to Lawn Therapy, LLC. last minute, to assist me with mowing and edging my yard after another company was a no call/ no show. During my call, Herman was very professional, courteous, and accommodating. He was able to get me scheduled right away for my lawn services and provided me ETAs for the crew. The crew arrived on time, did a wonderful job on my lawn, and cleaned up nicely before they left. They even provided recommendations on additional services that my lawn could benefit from in the future. Top notch service!"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

How often you should maintain your yard depends on your climate and what season it is. A general rule of thumb is to maintain a lawn height of three inches.

The time you should wait before walking on new grass depends on whether you used seed or sod. If you laid new grass seed, it's best to wait about eight weeks before stepping on it, as new grass is fragile. For sod, it typically establishes itself in the ground in about two weeks. For heavy traffic, like driving a car across a new grass driveway, you might need to wait an entire season.

No, it isn’t illegal, but many cities and towns have noise ordinances that it could violate. Either way, it can still cause problems if it bothers your neighbors. For motor-powered lawnmowers, the general consensus for common courtesy is to wait until after 8 a.m. to mow your lawn. However, if you have a push mower, you should be safe to mow at any time of day, provided you don’t make excessive noise in other ways.

Carpetgrass is distinguishable by its pale green to yellowish color and coarse appearance that grows well under shady conditions in poor and compact soils. If it grows uncontrolled, it tends to develop a hairy seedhead, giving patches of grass a messy appearance. If carpetgrass is regularly cut, it looks very similar to centipedegrass and St. Augustine grass, and people may confuse them. Carpetgrass blades are flat and rounded at the tip. Note that the grass only typically grows as a weed in Southern states.

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