"Chris came out to my home, walked the property, and presented his quote for the services requested. It was fair and comparable to others I had received. I chose to hire Chris because of his enthusiasm, obvious knowledge of the business, and insightful observations and suggestions. I inspected the work once completed and was very pleased. He went the extra distance and left things looking awesome. What?s more, I retained Chris for the upcoming season for regular lawn maintenance."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

DIY is possible for small properties. Professional services ensure consistent quality and proper maintenance for large areas.

Mowing at least once a week during the growing season is a good general rule. However, every lawn is different, and factors like frequent rain and fertilizer use can cause grass to grow faster, potentially requiring mowing as often as every four days. When you mow, always follow the 'one-third rule': never cut more than one-third of the grass blade's height at once, as this can weaken it and prevent it from taking in proper nutrients. For most grass types, the ideal height is around 2 to 3 inches, though some warm-weather grasses do better when kept shorter at about 1.5 to 2 inches.

They regularly monitor health, applying preventative fungicides and providing customized care to reduce disease risks.

Water daily, avoid heavy foot traffic, and mow when the grass reaches 3-4 inches.

It is not recommended to mow wet grass, including grass with morning dew. Mowing when wet can damage your lawn, your mower, and potentially cause injury. Wet grass blades are more likely to be torn rather than cut cleanly, which can lead to brown tips and increase the risk of fungal diseases. Additionally, wet clippings can clump together, smothering the grass underneath, and can clog your mower. For best results, wait until the grass is dry to the touch, which is often about two hours after morning dew has evaporated. Regular lawn mower maintenance is also important for a clean cut.
