MV Lawn & General Service
MV Lawn & General Service
MV Lawn & General Service is a locally owned and operated company. We are experts in lawn care, gutter cleaning, power wash services, snow removal and much more. We get the job done right the first time and will work around your schedule.
"I used this company twice for spring cleanup which was ok (although his prices fluctuated ALOT and seemed to be thought of on the spot). However it was when I hired them to do routine lawn maintenance through the summer it went downhill. During the first service they mowed over my rose bush. During the third service they mowed over the second rose bush. I asked for weed killer during one of the Maintinence visits and they said they applied it but the weeds were back 3 days later. The day I fired them was when I asked them to trim two small shrubs in the front of my house (because they don?t do this during regular maintenance) and they wanted to charge me double what I already paying for lawn Maintinence do trim the bushes. It was wildly overpriced and again it seemed like he just made up a number to see if I?d pay because I?m usually open but I?m not open to being taken advantage of. In the end I ended up with more weeds than I started with, two dead rose bushes. it was not worth it."

Depending on the areas that a lawn care company specializes in, most companies offer a core set of services that usually include:
Mowing
Mulch
Tree trimming and pruning
Pest control
Landscaping
Leaf removal
Spring and fall cleanup
Shrub trimming and pruning
Check with local lawn care companies to confirm that they offer the services you’re looking for.
The average cost to mow a lawn is about $125, ranging between $50 and $200 per cutting, depending on yard size. Other cost factors include the shape of your lawn, accessibility, lawn health, type of grass, length of grass, and frequency of the mowing schedule. The cost to cut your grass will also vary depending on where you live. If your landscaper has to maneuver around obstacles or deal with hard to reach areas and steep slopes, this will likely increase your total mowing costs.
The recommended frequency to fertilize your lawn depends on the health of your lawn. If the grass is healthy and you have good soil, you may only need to apply fertilizer once yearly. However, if your lawn has shallow roots or poor, sandy soil that lacks the nutrients that grass needs to thrive, you may need to fertilize the lawn every six weeks.
On average, the cost to hydroseed ranges between $500 and $4,000. The cost depends on the size of the area you’re hydroseeding, the type of grass seed, slope of your yard, and other factors. Hydroseed is a mixture of grass seed, fertilizer, water, and mulch that you spray on the lawn using a pressurized sprayer. While the process is more expensive than seeding, grass will grow more quickly, and is often healthier.
Yes, it can be cheaper to fertilize your own lawn. DIY lawn fertilization saves the cost of hiring a lawn care company or a company that specializes in lawn fertilization. It’s important to handle fertilizer carefully to avoid the potential dangers of getting fertilizing chemicals on your skin. Also, using the wrong type of fertilizer or misapplying it can permanently damage your lawn. On average, the cost to fertilize your lawn using a professional lawn care service is about $250 and may be worth checking into as professionals tend to have the equipment and knowledge to apply the most effective blend of fertilizer to your lawn for the best results.
