"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."

Customers say: Terrific value

"I recently moved into a house in Albuquerque, and because of neglect while the property was vacant, the yard was an absolute disaster. Matt and his crew came out and removed all of the offending weeds, including, among other things, several large chamisas, a number of large elm saplings, some other large shrubs that prevented me from even accessing part of the yard, and a large area of what must have once been a lawn. We saved a few small lavenders, a nice looking privet, a small garden of cacti and succulents, and about a half dozen rose bushes, all of which were almost lost in the mess. After that was done, they put down weed barrier, covered the front and back yard with decorative gravel, and re-set the irrigation to the roses. After they left on the last day, about a half-dozen of my neighbors came over to tell me how great the yard looked. It took three solid days of hard work to finish the job, one day less than the original estimate of four. Every day they got started early and stayed late. We'll have them back out in a few months when the weather cools to do some new plantings, but for now I've got a neat, tidy, low-maintenance yard, which is exactly what I wanted."

"My repair team arrived 30 minutes after I called to say there was an immediate need for repair because my irrigation system was leaking and I had an urgent problem. The 2-man team analyzed and diagnosed the problem within minutes of arrival, showed me what needed to be done, got my approval (and my gratitude!), left to get needed parts, returned to complete the repair (it was a major valve problem), showed me the repair and put back the disturbed landscape and garden plantings as if it had never been touched! An amazing day with these two repairmen! I m going to continue to use them for all my sprinkler team."

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

You should mow your lawn first and water it afterward, in most cases. You should not mow when your lawn it’s wet as it could clog the blades. If you haven't been watering your lawn for an extended time or your area is experiencing a drought, water your grass first. Mowing thin, wispy grass can be difficult, so allow it to become fuller and thicker before mowing. Once it looks more lush and dry, go ahead and mow.

Professional lawn care can increase your home’s value, as it beautifies your exterior and improves curb appeal. Potential buyers who pull up to a house that looks neat and clean will get a great first impression, and savvy buyers will know that a well-maintained exterior is probably indicative of proper care for other things, like electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems. Ultimately, a lawn that’s professionally cared for can boost your home’s appearance and lead buyers to offer more for your house.

The frequency of gardening service visits depends on two significant factors—the service and your budget. If you’re a gardening DIYer and only need someone to check on your plant's health quality, you might not need many visits throughout the year. However, if you love the idea of a garden but don't have the time or patience to plant, water, and maintain your garden, you might need weekly visits (or more, depending on the weather).

Both zoysia grass and bermuda grass are somewhat similar to St. Augustine because they’re all warm-season grasses. Beyond that, most grass types have unique properties that set them apart. Zoysia grass costs twice the price of St. Augustine grass on average and it has thinner blades and a deeper green appearance. Bermuda grass, compared to St. Augustine, has much thinner blades, is softer to the touch, and has a higher tolerance for colder weather.

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.
