"Honest, fast, efficient service. We had Off the Court Property Maintenance clean get our yard getting it ready for spring. They responded almost immediately to my request for service. They made time to meet me during my lunch hour and they had the job finished by supper time. They mowed, edged, cleaned out years of leaves from under and around our hedges, moved dirt and filled in holes in the yard. The price was excellent. I will be telling my friends and calling them again."

"It could not have gone any better. They did exactly what they had promised and at a fair price. This was a hard job being over my dad's house and they were amazing with how they were able to complete this job. They were very safety minded and did an excellent job of clean up after the job was completed. I have no reservations recommending Mike and Gail Mason and Quality Tree Care. Not only do they do excellent work, they are just nice people."

"We needed someone to install tile around the bathtub at an apartment unit we own. Joey at 2 Daughters Handyman came to the rescue. He quoted us a fair price based on what we could see. However, once he started the work other complications were discovered such as mold behind the existing wall. Joey and his crew were able to take care of each issue and charged us a fair amount for the extra work performed. We were very impressed with his willingness to get the job done in a timely manner. He even went to two or three places on his own to find the tile we wanted. We will definitely use 2 Daughters again and would recommend them to anyone needing his services.

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

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.

Carpetgrass is a low-maintenance grass requiring little fertilization that thrives in subprime growing conditions. However, regular mowing is necessary to avoid the growth of unsightly seed stalks, and you may have to water it frequently to prevent drying out the soil. That includes watering the grass over dry winters to help keep it healthy, and it may start dying out in particularly cold climates where it grows poorly. Carpetgrass can also be vulnerable to some types of turf fungus, so it’s important not to overthatch. 

Yes, you can overwater your lawn. While water is essential for growth, too much can be damaging. Overwatering keeps the soil saturated, which can suffocate roots, kill beneficial bacteria, and starve the grass of nutrients and oxygen, leading to root rot. This can occur due to a leaky irrigation system, a rainy season, or using a sprinkler too often. In addition to harming your lawn's health and longevity, overwatering can also increase your water bill.

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.

Because it’s native to the central United States and Canada and is drought-tolerant, it typically is not difficult to grow. It requires very little maintenance and minimal watering beyond rainfall. Its hardy nature and unique look make it a favorite choice among people living in the western United States and other dry regions of the country.
