"Elite think they know more about what the homeowner wants than the homeowner themselves. They are rigid and inflexible. Even with 40 days of no rain, they want to show up and mow the lawn. They do an excellent job with cutting the lawn but they want to do everything their way. The billing is problematic. They send it to a very busy inbox that sees a lot of junk mail. It is difficult to sort out. I would prefer being notified by text message. After they did their fall clean-up, my koi pond was full of leaves that I had to dredge out. I am just going to trade in my old lawn tractor in the spring rather than having to deal with lawn services."

Small jobs welcome

"We needed the bushes pruned. They did it. We needed the undergrowth under the bushes weeded. They did it. And we needed mulch put down and they did that too. They came when they said they would come. They got done when they said they would get done. They were easy to communicate with and also pleasant and nice. Our house looks so much better. And they were reasonable and honest. All these attributes are hard to find these days. Five Stars and would recommend to others. 👍🏻"

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Ultimately, pulling weeds vs. spraying them depends on what’s happening in your yard and your personal preferences. Manual weed removal doesn’t introduce any chemicals into your landscape, targets specific problematic plants, produces immediate results, can be free if you go the DIY route, and is inexpensive with a weed service if you only have a handful of weeds. On the other hand, spraying is often preferable for severe weed infestations and situations involving difficult-to-pull weeds because it treats multiple weeds at once, is usually more effective long-term, is less time-consuming, and costs less when done by a pro.

Weeds may grow back when pulled out if the root is not completely removed. Invasive weeds can regrow from just a small portion of remaining root, so using a weed-pulling tool can help ensure you remove the entire root. Weeds may grow back faster if roots aren’t fully removed, and incomplete removal could cause them to spread as well.

Technically, dandelions aren’t bad for your lawn, and they don’t directly kill grass. In fact, they appear in areas that are nutrient-deprived, and their long taproots can loosen the soil and bring nutrients closer to the surface. 

However, dandelions do spread quickly, and they can take over your lawn, eventually crowding out grass. This is why a healthy lawn is the best defense against dandelions.

Mowing a lawn will, unfortunately, not get rid of clover, and it may even encourage it to flourish. Let your lawn grow to a healthy height of over 3 inches and then set your mower blades no lower than this level. Higher grass will cut out the light that clover loves and discourage it from spreading.

There are a few things you should ask a weed service company before hiring to ensure you’re choosing the best professional for the job:

  • How often will you apply herbicides?

  • Do you include any spot treatments or manual weed removal in your pricing?

  • Do you offer pet-safe and kid-safe herbicides?

  • What other lawn services can you provide?

  • Do you offer any kind of guarantee for the work performed?

  • Are you properly licensed and fully insured?

  • Do you have any customer references I could speak with?
