"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!"

"Don and his entire crew at D&S are amazing! I would rate them 10 stars if I could. Don and Isaac came up with a beautiful design for our new front porch, walkway and landscaping and delivered on everything they said they would. Everyone on the crew worked so hard and we couldn’t believe how quickly they got the job done. It turned out even more amazing then we ever imagined. My husband and I could not be happier. D&S also takes care of our regular lawn maintenance and they do a fabulous job every week with that as well."

"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."

"I hired them for tree removal. Mike (the head arborist) was wonderful. They were courteous, on time, and their prices were fair and market based. Really appreciate them and I’m considering using them for routine lawn care services."

"They installed the irrigation system. The equipment they used chewed up my lawn!! I had to spend the balance of the fall attempting to recover from the chewed up lawn. Installation is average. I had to call them back to fix poor quality work. They did come back and do right by me."

"Well, in a word, wonderfully. Charlie is professional, knowledgeable and friendly, as are his staff. They took great care to ensure that they left our property as close as possible to the condition in which they found it. They worked around existing plants, replaced a section of wood fence that had to be removed to access the area in which they built the patio and even planted grass seed where they tracks from the bobcat tore up the lawn. The finished patio looks fantastic and the pergola is mounted securely. We couldn't be happier. This company approaches each job as if it is the most important job to them. They do not change how they work according to the price of the job. They want the customer satisfied and all of the employees go to great lengths to do so. My only regret is that I didn't find Charlie when we were getting estimates for our paver pool deck that we had installed two years ago. We will definitely be calling Charlie for any future landscaping work at our house and recommending him to friends and family in the area."

"Had these guys install sod on my front lawn. They were awesome! Friendly, professional, respectful. They did a meticulous installation and cleanup and the cost was extremely reasonable. I highly recommend Angel and his team. They also do a variety of other outdoor projects that I will definitely look into."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Depending on your lawn mower type, you can mow anywhere from 2.5 to 13 miles per hour (mph). A simple push lawn mower will take the longest to mow at 2.5 mph, which is just under the average walking pace. Riding mowers can go significantly faster. Rear engines come in at around 5 mph, tractors come in at just shy of 8 mph, and zero-turn mowers come in at the fastest speed of 13 mph.

Bermuda grass is one of the fastest-growing warm-season grasses because of its system of aboveground stems (stolons) and below-ground stems (rhizomes). Adequate water and sunlight in a warmer climate will nurture the spread of Bermuda grass. This rapid growth rate makes Bermuda grass resilient and effective at choking weeds. However, this aggressive advancement can also make the grass difficult to contain and control.

The best hardiness zones for St. Augustine grass are USDA growing zones 8, 9, and 10. However, with a bit of extra attention, it'll also grow well in zones 7, 11, and 12.

One of the best ways to save money on lawn care is to sign up for an annual contract for ongoing service rather than paying for one-off or as-needed services. If you guarantee a landscaping company ongoing work, they’re more likely to give you a break on the cost. Plus, ongoing services will keep your property in tip-top shape and help avoid the high cost of playing catch up on an overgrown lawn. You can also save money by sticking to the basics and foregoing add-on services like weeding and pest treatments.

Depending on the method you choose to remove grass, it may or may not matter whether the grass is wet or dry when you perform the task. A dryer lawn will be easier to negotiate with a sod cutter, especially if you're not planning to reuse the turf. However, using a shovel by hand might be a little easier if the ground is slightly damp but not so much that it sticks to the tool.
