Here are some questions you should ask lawn mowing companies before hiring one to service your lawn:

• How long have you been in business?

• Are you licensed and fully insured?

• Do you collect and haul away cut grass or mulch it and leave it behind?

• Do you provide add-on services other than lawn mowing?

• Do you plan to use herbicides and pesticides?

• If I run into an issue with service, what does the resolution process look like?

Yes! Fescue grass is a perennial that naturally regrows every spring. That’s why we recommend planting this grass variety in the spring to jump into the ideal growing and regrowing schedule. Keep in mind that fescue grasses thrive in cooler and transitional areas, so some species do best in moderate climates below 90 and above 50 degrees Fahrenheit.

If your grass is stressed from being over-trimmed, try watering it heavily and then allowing it to recover for at least two weeks before mowing again. If you notice brown patches where the grass has died off because it’s too short, you should remove the dead grass and overseed the area. Leaving dead patches can invite weeds and other problems, so if you want a totally green lawn, getting rid of dead patches should include removing the dead sections before reseeding the area.

Costs depend on property size, service frequency, and additional tasks like aeration or overseeding.
