"Excellent! Xtracare did a great job beautifying our front yard! This was our second time for a big project with Xtracare and they delivered. For this project, we asked them to design a conservation garden using native plants that would qualify for the Montgomery County Rainscapes program rebate. We appreciated the design and careful consideration Angela made to provide us with native plants that would work well with our existing property. We really felt like she gave it her personal touch. Thank you Angela! We were also very grateful to Tim and the crew for the fine work and attention they gave to install the project. Thank you also to Mari and Raquel for their helpful communications, which made things work so smoothly. And lastly, thank you to Cleber for visiting us at the beginning and end of the project and seeing it through. We had total confidence in their company and felt we made the right decision to work with you once again. We are very proud of our new front yard and are receiving many compliments from neighbors."

"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."

"We have been using ATD for a few years now to perform a variety of lawn care services and are very satisfied. Mowing is timely and dependable from a competent and friendly crew. The company always responds promptly to email and phone inquiries or requests, and is eager to help resolve any problems. For example, when some newly planted perennials did not survive, ATD did not hesitate to offer workable alternatives. It is also nice to have one company handle all of your lawn care needs."

"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

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.

Hiring a professional lawn care service is generally worth the cost, especially if you have limited free time. Lawn care professionals can ensure your lawn receives the vital nutrients it needs to grow and thrive, guaranteeing a healthy, beautiful, and well-maintained yard with professional-looking results. While some homeowners enjoy doing the work themselves, hiring a company frees up your schedule. The decision also depends on your budget and whether you already own the necessary lawn equipment, as doing the maintenance yourself can reduce monthly costs. Additionally, many lawn care companies offer other services like snow and leaf removal to keep your property in top shape year-round.

The growth of tall fescue grass often causes clumps of grass in your lawn. Avoid pulling up the clumps, as it won’t effectively remove them. Instead, dig out clumps and their roots when you notice them early in the growing season. Herbicides can also treat grass clumps, but they can also affect other plants you might not want to kill, so use them sparingly and always follow manufacturer instructions.

Yes, it’s acceptable to water the lawn in very hot weather, but you should try to water between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m. for best results. However, watering when the temperature is above 95 degrees is ineffective. If you’re concerned about whether to water your lawn during extreme heat, consult a local lawn care professional who can recommend a watering schedule based on your grass type and climate.

Lawn mower blades should be sharp enough that you can feel the sharpened edge, but not sharp enough to cut you when you touch them. Over-sharpening blades to a fine, razor-edge poses a safety risk and decreases the blade's life because it causes extra wear; the thinner edge is sharper but weaker and will require more frequent sharpening.
