"They did a great job creating a gravel pad for our camper! He was able to complete the job just a few days after my first conversation with him. He was very easy to work with, very patient with my many texts, happy to troubleshoot some different ideas with us and offered professional and knowledgeable advice. I would gladly hire him again and would highly recommend him to others."

"I m an out of town owner and prefer to hire local as much as possible. Labonte s Lawn Care has been easy to work with. I ve checked on the property regularly and talked to neighbors. I hired this business for regular mowing and overall maintenance (weeding shrub trimming etc) I ve been completely satisfied with the work and the price was more than fair. Highly recommend."

"Mike did an excellent job for us. We had him take care of a large yard that had been neglected and was overgrown. He jumped right in and had things looking good. He gets right on a job and gets it done, easy to get a hold of and always responds quickly."

"A professional experience throughout the project. Chase is very experienced and knowledgeable and communicated the costs, options, and timelines very clearly and effectively. The crew was managed well and were very respectful of the property, doing their best to minimize effects to the yard by heavy equipment. I added an extra slab for a shed in the back yard at the last minute and they handled it no problem."

Lawn Care FAQs, answered by experts

There are several best practices you can do to keep your lawn looking healthy. Knowing when to water grass is among the most important. Having your sprinkler timer set to early morning is best because it gives your grass and plants enough time to absorb water before the sun and wind can evaporate it. To maximize a sprinkler’s impact, aerate your lawn once or twice per year. Doing this achieves better absorption and stronger root systems for your grass.

Some things you can do to prepare for yard work services are aerate the soil, fertilize your grass, keep weeds under control, regularly mow your lawn, and water your grass.

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. 

St. Augustine is a hardy grass that’s relatively easy to grow, but it requires regular lawn maintenance to stay healthy. It’s best to keep up with a regular fertilization schedule during the growing season, plus a yearly dethatching to help it properly absorb air and moisture. Watering is also important, so be sure to water it enough to keep the soil moist.

The decision of whether or not to let moss grow in your yard depends on your preference. Moss is a lower-maintenance alternative to grass that looks green and lush but doesn’t require irrigation, fertilization, or mowing. Unlike grass, moss doesn’t attract pests, so it can keep your yard free from bugs as well. However, moss won’t stand up to heavy foot traffic as well as turfgrass.
