"Joe and crew stopped by to give me an estimate and asked if he could at least tidy up the lawn for me right then (we were in the process of moving in and the lawn was in bad shape). They not only mowed but also cleaned up the flowerbeds and him on a full schedule! Yes I highly recommend this company!"

"I can’t say enough about how awesome Dustin James is. I had a townhouse to sell that needed work. The tasks ranged from fixing a threshold to installing blinds and a ceiling fan. In addition, when the installers of the new countertops did not connect the plumbing, Dustin did that too. He accomplished all the tasks efficiently and effectively, and at a very reasonable cost. His extensive knowledge of construction was invaluable and meant the work didn’t drag on and was done flawlessly. Dustin also communicated extensively throughout the engagement. In fact, his work was done so well that our property went under contract the first day it was on the market. I cannot recommend Dustin enough. He is the best."

"I think they treated the wrong lawn. The note they sent me via text message referenced trees and shrubs in my yard, I have none. They also did not leave a yard marker showing they had been there. Otherwise, this would have been a 5 star review."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

It typically takes six to 12 months for leaves to decompose entirely. The process involves the mulch composting into your lawn to deliver nutrients that facilitate grass growth. The recommended process is to spread a thick layer of leaf mulch over your garden and let it marinate for a few seasons for best long-term results.

There are several ways to decompose yard waste quickly. The first step is to move all debris into a compost bin or pile. From there, microorganisms, bacteria, and insects will break down the yard waste into compost. To speed things up, shred the waste into smaller pieces, add live worms to the pile, or introduce nitrogen-rich compost accelerators like grass clippings, coffee grounds, and manure. Turn the compost over every few days. This process, called aerating, allows oxygen to get in and accelerate decomposition.

If you are xeriscaping a lawn from scratch, your best bet for preparing the lawn is to work with a xeriscaping specialist in your area. The most common first step to making the transformation, however, will be to remove the turfgrass from your lawn. The subsequent steps will often include amending the soil to support new plants and installing low-drip or drip irrigation systems.

Unless you plan to use a dump trailer for business purposes, it will be hard to justify the cost of buying one. Even a small, used 6-by-10-foot model could set you back as much as $5,000, and larger, high-quality models can cost up to $15,000 to buy brand-new.

No. Unfortunately, leaf removal is your responsibility, no matter what tree the leaves come from. It would be pretty hard to regulate leaves since they can be moved by the wind or water. Imagine the detective skills it would take to determine which tree each leaf came from and who was then liable for removing it. Instead, plan to remove any leaves on your property.
