"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"

"This summer's weather proved challenging to get our back yard re-landscaped. Rainy weather caused several delays but once things finally cleared, Baumann's crew came in force and did a beautiful landscaping of our back yard, including installing a sprinkler to keep things growing while we were away, installing a downspout drain, and adding pavers and a small stone patio. They also did a massive clean up of our yard, clearing out weeds, thinning out bushes, and replacing the mulch. We don't look like we live in the jungle anymore. For general yard clean-up and maintenance, these guys are great and punctual."

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.

"MC Landscaping did a fantastic job with our lawn! We were dealing with a lot of water erosion, and they suggested ideas to fix the issues while creating a beautiful space that blended with other landscaping. The owner was super responsive to our questions, visited the site multiple times to check in on the work, and made sure our needs were met. They offered top quality services at reasonable prices. We were so pleased with the work that we had them come back for additional work and recommended them to our neighbors. If you’re looking for someone to provide creative solutions for your landscaping, I’d highly recommend MC Landscaping!"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Yes, Bahia grass spreads on its own thanks to its short stolon system. However, it might not seem like your Bahia grass spreads well due to its slow growth. Bahia grass takes around 3 to 4 weeks to germinate and an additional two weeks to grow thicker. 

During this time, fast-growing, competitive weeds may pop up, so weed your lawn to give your Bahia grass a chance to grow. This grass can take up to two years to become established. Once established, Bahia grass typically does well in suitable climates.

During normal temperatures, you should mow about once per week. However, if your grass is distressed by extreme heat, you should avoid mowing it altogether. Wait until after an irrigation session or rainfall. That way, your grass will be good and hydrated before you mow. Remember, you should not mow the grass when it’s wet. Wait until it dries first.

St. Augustine grass grows fast thanks to its dense mat-like structure and vigorous root system. If you've laid St. Augustine sod, it'll put down roots, get itself established, and start to spread in 14 days.

First, make sure you’re watering your grass early in the morning (and keep in mind you don’t have to water every day). Doing this helps ensure the water is able to soak in before the hot temps evaporate all of the water. Also, when you mow, don’t mow your grass as short as you would in non-drought conditions. Taller grass can help slow down the rate at which soil dries out. Finally, take your leftover lawn clippings and spread them out across the lawn to give it a little extra shade and nutrients.

Yes, watering after you level a lawn is essential. Water helps settle the soil, eliminating air pockets and encouraging the newly-applied topdressing to bond with the existing surface. Adequate watering aids in achieving a smoother and more even lawn surface. However, be sure to avoid overwatering, which could lead to soil erosion or compaction issues.
