"Backyard Services did an amazing job of taking care of the completely overgrown weeds in my backyard, as well as removing several dead bushes, and pruning one of my trees in the backyard. They came out the same day to do an estimate and began work the very next morning. They hauled two loads to the dump, including a few patio items I no longer wanted or that were broken. They were courteous, thorough, and communicated their plans and ideas throughout the entire process. I would definitely recommend these guys to anyone! As a matter of fact, a friend was so amazed at the transformation of my very messy yard, that she begged for their number! Seriously, look no further for a yard cleanup service. They will do wonders for your yard."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Post-seeding care involves regular watering, mowing when appropriate, and occasional re-seeding to cover sparse areas.

While it's a good idea to water your grass during a drought or when temperatures are high, you should not water your lawn every day. For most lawns, watering one to three times per week is sufficient. Avoid watering in the middle of the day or when the temperature is above 95 degrees Fahrenheit, as the extreme heat will cause the water to evaporate before the soil can fully absorb it. The best time to water your lawn in the summer is in the early morning at dawn or in the early evening, such as between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m., when it's cooler.

First, make sure you’re watering your grass early in the morning (and keep in mind you don’t have to water every day). Doing this helps ensure the water is able to soak in before the hot temps evaporate all of the water. Also, when you mow, don’t mow your grass as short as you would in non-drought conditions. Taller grass can help slow down the rate at which soil dries out. Finally, take your leftover lawn clippings and spread them out across the lawn to give it a little extra shade and nutrients.

It’s possible to over-mulch leaves. If the leaf mulch is thick enough that it’s blocking and smothering the grass, that’s a problem. Ideally, you should still be able to see the grass when you’re done mulching to ensure its ability to continue growing. The solution is to make another pass at the top layer of leaf mulch to collect some of the top layer.

Starting a mowing business can be profitable if you manage your business wisely, calculate costs accurately, and invest in time-efficient, high-quality equipment. With good customer service, you can lock in loyal customers who invest in weekly lawn care services that turn your business into a successful one. 

Lawn care businesses can earn anywhere from $40,000 to over $100,000 per year depending on how you operate, but you’ll need to factor in the cost of equipment to determine your actual profit margins.
