"Gary's Lawn Service has been maintaining my lawn care needs since the beginning of the season and has done an outstanding job. Highly competitive rate, always can be counted on to show up when expected, extremely personable and professional, and the best part is that my lawn looks amazing. Not the slap dash work I have seen in the past from other providers. I no longer have to worry about clumps of grass left behind, ruts or huge divots left by mowers, or garden mulch blown all over the lawn. I highly recommend Gary's Lawn service!"

"Took four of us 20 minutes to clear away some junk which would have taken all weekend by myself. Then they graded away weeds and organic garden debris and leaves. Then they leveled out fresh top soil and provided proper grading for drainage. Then they laid and watered fresh dormant fescue sod, and gave me instructions for care. Worth every penny, took thier 4 man crew 6 hours to do a job which would have taken me a lifetime"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

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.

Fescue grass is a relatively low-maintenance grass type, meaning it doesn’t require much more attention than regular watering, dethatching, and mowing. Some fescues even grow slowly enough for hard-to-reach areas, particularly those inaccessible by the mower. Following a seasonal maintenance schedule will help your fescue lawn stay green, healthy, and durable for years to come.

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.

Avoid watering your plants once temperatures regularly reach freezing temperatures or lower. Water won’t make it down to the roots at that point—it’ll just freeze to the topsoil level.

The best way to clean an overgrown yard is to create a multi-stage game plan, from clearing out the debris to cleaning up the edges around hardscaping and landscape curbing. Get rid of yard debris like worn furniture and broken tools first, then start trimming and raking what’s left. Mow the grass, trim the hedges, and rake leaves away. Once that’s complete, move on to more detailed work, like pulling weeds and replanting gardens.
