"Joe at Baker Landworx did a phenomenal job cleaning up our new home’s yard, garden beds, and shrubbery. Joe had excellent communication with us throughout the process and his team was extremely thorough in not only getting done what we had requested but in leaving our property looking meticulously cared for. For all the work that we had completed, they were affordably priced and we will definitely be utilizing their services in the future!"

"I'm very satisfied with the work Sunshine Landscapes HV does. They're fast, efficient, and thoughtful about how they cut and trim our property (large front yard, narrow side yard, big backyard area and steep hill). But aside from cutting grass and doing monthly weed killing (such a huge help), it's the other parts of their service that has them truly shine for me. On the day you're scheduled in the routine calendar, they will show up. You get emailed an invoice and can easily pay on your phone. As needed, and especially during the start-up as a new customer, they are careful to call and ensure everything is going alright with service, even driving over to discuss a matter face to face if there's a misunderstanding. When the weather is going to be bad or if it hasn't rained for a while and the grass didn't grow much, they'll come back at a more reasonable time to not waste your money (or ruin your lawn, driving on wet soil). They have a reliable crew so when I plan to have company over on the weekend, I can be sure my lawn will be tailored on my scheduled day. Most other companies and workers can cut grass, too... but this company brings the value I was looking for, and, surprisingly, a bit more. I'm glad to trust Sunshine Landscapes HV. I was tired of feeling embarrassed about how unsightly the lawn was, but you allowed us to enjoy hosting backyard gatherings for three seasons. Thank you for the commitment to quality service."

Weed Services FAQs, answered by experts

There are many options to eradicate weeds right down to the roots. Vinegar works, but it takes a week or so to do its thing, and the same goes for many commercially available herbicides. Boiled water is a quick way to kill off roots, or you can pull up weeds at the root.

Several tools exist that can help remove unwanted grass. The one you choose depends greatly on how much you need to remove and how hard you'd like to work. A sod or turf cutter is the fastest method while using a shovel is labor-intensive and much slower. You may also need a garden rake, tiller, and wheelbarrow. 

If possible, you should prioritize pulling weeds up by hand. However, be sure not to use your bare hands, as many weeds are sharp or otherwise irritating when they come in contact with skin. Always don thick, protective gardening gloves to protect your hands when you pull up weeds.

The fastest ways to kill weeds and unwanted grass include burning them, pouring boiling water on them, or pulling them out by hand, as these methods work almost instantaneously. For a quick-acting solution that works within a few hours, you can use a commercial-grade herbicide like glyphosate or a DIY vinegar, salt, and dish soap mixture. While effective, be aware that commercial herbicides introduce chemicals into your lawn. The slowest method for killing weeds is to starve them of sunlight and nutrients using mulch or fabric covers.

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.
