"Yard clean up. Something was lost in communication. Owner and I (and his worker on the day of work) discussed a FEW times areas of my yard not to be clean or touched. Either the owner and his worker did not listen or care cuz the worker not only cleaned the areas I did not want touched, he pulled out flowers and a rose plant i was trying to regrow in areas I specifically asked to avoid. Owner left the job twice for long period of time so I had to keep an eye on his worker and stop him (too late) from cutting plants I did not want cut. The yard looks clean despite some left over weeds. If you have specific requirements, you may have to keep on an eye on the job."

"Wonderful! It was a rather small repair, but JM Maintenance treated my job professionally, with care and were fair on the pricing. Good communication. Eduardo was on site, and represents this company well. I will be happy to work with them again."

"We recently moved to NM and the yard at our home was neglected for a few years. The backyard needed to be cleaned up (including removing a few bushes and an old clothesline), a new irrigation system installed, and beds prepared for a variety of plants I want to install. Eric and his crew from Summersweet were excellent! I interviewed several landscapers and only Eric listened to what I wanted, offered his expert advice (his knowledge was gained thru both formal education and practical experience), and delivered what we agreed to have done! The Summersweet crew was hardworking and professional - it helped that I speak some Spanish. Carmela pleasantly and professionally handles all the behind the scenes logistics. Everything was done professionally and on time."

"Our experience with Milligan Scapes was great! We got estimates and while Milligan wasn't the cheapest, we felt very comfortable with Gary and the planned system. They came on a Tuesday and were finished on that Thursday. Both Tim and Franklin were exceptional workers and everything turned out great. I definitely recommend them for any type of work. We are going to have Milligan replace our driveway. So glad to have found a responsible company."

"Juan Carlos was a pleasure to work with. He cleared out and pruned our land and set up a drip system targeting the specific plants and trees that needed the help. He also planted new trees with great care. He is incredibly thorough and thought of things that needed to be done that we didnâ t even know we needed and we are glad he did. When one of our trees got sick suddenly he came over and was able to diagnose what happened. We will work with him again."

"I hired AZR To repair the fountain wall and replace the pump and liner. The wall had numerous cracks and loose stones as seen in the first two pictures, AZR came out day 1 and demoed the fountain as seen in the 3rd picture. Where did all of the material and debris go? Not on the lawn, but about 20 yards away in a paved work area I have picture 3. They finished day 2 (Pics 4 & 5). Job was done Great. All water funnels to the catch basin. Outstanding job!"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Water regularly, avoid heavy foot traffic, and clear debris promptly to support lawn health.

A standard home lawn mower with sharp blades can handle a thin layer of leaves without issue. You may need to make a couple of passes within several days to mulch leaves down, but your mower shouldn’t struggle. If your mower comes with a mulching kit, like an attachment to blow leaves out the side, that’s a good sign it’s ready for fall leaves. Set your mower to the highest or near-highest height for this project so it focuses on the leaves rather than the grass below.

The best times to mow your lawn are mid-morning or early evening. Mowing in the mid-morning, around 10 a.m., allows any dew to evaporate so the grass is dry. Cutting dry grass is easier on both the lawn and the mower, and this timing gives the grass blades time to recover in the sunlight before the peak afternoon heat. Alternatively, you can mow in the late afternoon or early evening once the heat of the day has passed. Avoid mowing too early in the morning when the grass is still wet with dew, and try not to mow during the hottest part of the day, as high temperatures and harsh sunlight can put extra stress on the grass.

When spring arrives, it’s best to hold off on mowing until temperatures have consistently reached a temperature of at least 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Attempting to mow grass that hasn't fully thawed from its winter dormancy can harm the delicate blades. Ensure your grass is dry before mowing and aim to mow when the grass is about three to four inches tall, trimming no more than one-third of the grass blade's height at a time. This timing encourages healthy growth and prevents shock to the grass, preparing your lawn for a happy, healthy growing season.

There are several best practices you can do to keep your lawn looking healthy. Knowing when to water grass is among the most important. Having your sprinkler timer set to early morning is best because it gives your grass and plants enough time to absorb water before the sun and wind can evaporate it. To maximize a sprinkler’s impact, aerate your lawn once or twice per year. Doing this achieves better absorption and stronger root systems for your grass.
