"I was extremely reluctant to install a drainage system to solve our backyard flooding issue but Ed convinced me. He was extremely knowledgeable and made me feel like our problem could finally get solved. A few months later we have a nice lawn for the first time since we bought the house!"

"The business owner met with me at my request to review what needed to be done for my lawn and property maintenance. I was not home on the day his crew did the initial mowing and trimming, but the results look great - very neat and professional. I have been told that the clean-up and maintenance of my property will be done on a schedule over a period of time, in order to keep my monthly expenses as reasonable as possible. I was very pleased and grateful to find someone who was respectful of my financial situation and willing to work with me. I would be happy to recommend Choppers Landscaping to anyone."

"All went extremely well. The Heartland crew, led by Harvie, arrived on time and went right to work. They worked through the day and did everything that was expected. I have some other work to be done, and I would definitely hire Heartland again to do that work."

"Very timely response. I met with their arborist the same day I entered the request. They provided sound advice (which was confirmed by others). They also provided a little extra trimming on the property for no charge and made sure that the work produced minimal damage to surrounding plantings. Only complaint was they left some gear behind on the job and I had to call them back to retrieve, which they did the next day. Would call them again for future work."

Lawns FAQs, answered by experts

It may not be worth it to rake every leaf in your yard, but it’s necessary to remove the majority of leaves to prevent them from smothering grass growth on your lawn. However, raking leaves isn’t your only option for leaf removal. You can remove leaves easily with a leaf blower or compost or mulch them with your lawn mower to repurpose them to help grow your garden or yard.

Foxtail grass is not native to the United States, so it is considered an invasive plant. Giant foxtail originated in eastern Asia, Green foxtail is native to Europe, and Yellow foxtail is native to Eurasia. This grass variety is one of many common invasive plant species that you should keep out of your yard and garden beds as much as possible.

A thorn bush isn’t likely to do serious damage, but it’ll definitely hurt if you get a thorn or two in your hand or arm. When removing thorn bushes, always wear thick gloves, long sleeves, and safety goggles to protect against thorns and dirt. If dealing with larger bushes or unfamiliar terrain, consider enlisting a helper for assistance.

The best way to clean artificial turf is to use a stiff-bristled broom or rake to loosen up any large debris once a week. The process will also redistribute the infill material that keeps your turf blades standing up straight and evenly. For artificial turf maintenance, do not vacuum your turf or apply cleaning solutions. If you need to rinse the blades, spritz them with a light hose. 

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.
