"Kuhlman's cared for our lawn for the entire time we owned our house (3 years). They not only did a consistently amazing job mowing, but handled other more difficult jobs like finding and fixing buried pipes, taking down damaged trees, and aeration/over seeding. I highly recommend them!"

"It all started with the 2025 snowcrete. We got married and moved into a house with a garage that opens to a back alley. We didn't know Arlington County wouldn't shovel snow in the alley; our cars were locked in the garage for 3 weeks. We decided to build a driveway in front of the house to be safe for the following years. After a lot of research, we chose Xtra Care Landscaping because their price was reasonable, they seemed knowledgeable, they presented a design that wouldn't damage the appearance of the house (actually, it ended up enhancing it), and they had many Brazilians on their team (a bonus!). Our choice of Xtra Care Landscaping proved to be the right choice! Cleber, Xtra Care’s owner, proposed several additions to enhance the landscaping. We ended up with an almost 6-month project, involving many contractors all managed by Xtra Care: • Manufactured a new porch railing that matched the house porch • Applied for and tracked through to approval for the Arlington County per"

"My gardens were overgrown and beyond my ability to deal with them. Sean responded quickly to my request for an estimate, and work was done two weeks later. The work crew led by Victor was amazing. They worked for a full 7 hours, and at the end of the day my gardens were weed-free, mulched and beautiful. I plan to hire 21st Century Lawn and Landscape for all of my lawn and garden needs."

"Reviews are tough because they are subjective. In this case, it's pretty clear. ATD was very responsive initially- Charlotte did our site walk/quote and Tina managed the rest. Our spring clean up crew was AMAZING! With the exception of cutting an irrigation/sprinkler line, they were meticulous and worked hard in getting everything cleaned up & ready for the year. In our experience, where ATD dropped the ball was with the weekly mowing crew. They were not careful in cutting the grass, leaving uncut swaths at turns, clumps of cut grass all over the yard and crooked/choppy edging. We tried for weeks to show the guys what we wanted, where they missed & asked them to blow/clean up after mowing to no avail. In the end, when we decided to change to another company, I asked for them to repair the broken line they cut and was told they weren't going to send someone out to fix it. They did forgive the $70 balance in lieu of the repair, but our issue/the point was they didn't take responsibility for the damage/their errors & lack of "attention to detail". Bottom line: Clean up crew was GREAT- Weekly crew is lacking & managing them up is not an option."

"We had a fantastic experience with JK Gardening Lawn & Garden Care, from start to finish. Their pricing was very reasonable, and the quality of service exceeded our expectations. Kevin and his uncle came out to plant 20 emerald green arborvitae trees along our driveway. They dug all the holes by hand, demonstrating incredible effort and precision. They even moved the excess dirt into a neat pile exactly where we requested. Once the job was done, they thoroughly cleaned up and even blew the driveway free of debris. We couldn't be happier with their professionalism and attention to detail. Highly recommend!"

In this project, we transformed a bare dirt area by using Blue Ice stone in the corner. Along the patio border, we added Delaware River Jack to seamlessly connect the entire stone bed around the pool.

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Signs of an overwatered lawn can be visual, physical, or related to pests and weeds. Visually, the grass may appear yellow, wilted, patchy, or thin instead of green and lush. You might also notice the presence of mushrooms, other fungal growths, or an increase in weeds like crabgrass. Physically, the soil may be waterlogged, soggy, and perpetually damp. An overwatered lawn often feels mushy or makes a squishing sound underfoot, even several hours after watering. Additionally, you may see an increase in pests such as grubs. To prevent overwatering, ensure your lawn has proper drainage through periodic aeration and adjust your watering schedule to meet its actual needs.

Buffalo grass starts to turn brown when encountering drought during the normal growing season. You can water the grass when you begin to notice some browning to prevent it from going dormant. Additionally, buffalo grass turns brown after the first freeze of late autumn or early winter, and this is a natural time for the grass to go dormant.

They regularly monitor health, applying preventative fungicides and providing customized care to reduce disease risks.

The average cost to mow a lawn is about $125 per visit, with prices typically ranging from $50 to $205. The final cost depends on several factors, including your location, yard size, lawn shape, accessibility, grass type and length, and the frequency of service. Lawns with obstacles, steep slopes, or hard-to-reach areas may cost more. If a company charges by size, you can expect to pay between $0.01 and $0.06 per square foot, or $150 to $200 per acre.

A general breakdown of costs by lawn size is as follows:

• 3,500 square feet: $35–$210

• 5,000 square feet: $50–$300

• 10,000 square feet: $100–$600

• 1 Acre: $150–$200

• 2 Acres: $300–$400

• 3 Acres: $450–$600

• 4 Acres: $600–$800

• 5 Acres: $750–$1,000

• 10 Acres: $1,500–$2,000

• 15 Acres: $2,250–$3,000

Keep in mind that these prices generally cover routine maintenance like mowing and edging. Additional services such as raking leaves, weeding, trimming, or applying pesticides can add $400 or more to your total cost.

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