"We hired Chris at Elegant Estates in 2024 for a job involving house washing and paver restoration. I was amazed by his dedication, energy, and professionalism. I have not received such excellent service from any other home improvement contractor. Planning the job weeks ahead of time was effortless. Chris has an efficient online system for communicating about estimates. He arrived at the appointed time with one assistant, and they worked meticulously all day. At the end he gave an honest explanation of the factors involved and his decisions. Every aspect of the job was done to the highest standard. He is a rare contractor that I would trust to do a job when I wasn’t present."

"They did the French drain. They started leveling and Rick removal, the rock hounder broke. They needed me to remove my pool so I drained it and it took longer then expected. So the company moved in to the next job and said would come back. They never came back. So I called and the owner was full of excuses and super rude. A month later I called over and over and left messages at least 6 times with no response. Finally we decided to contact our credit card company to get money back since the job was not completed. I needed to go to the company to get a contract and I told the office ladies I'd like to speak to the owner and that he never returned my calls. He finally called me a few days later and said he was not coming back. Claimed that the last time we spoke I hung up on him. Which never happened. Why would I hang up on someone who is supposed to be doing work on my yard? Doesn't make sense. They were informed that I was having a deck built, they dug out a spot for my in ground trampoline where my deck was supposed to go. And the owner threatened to charge me more for their waisted time. Even though I informed them a deck would be put there. He was terrible to me. I hope others don't get treated the way I did. I asked if he would finish and he said no. He doesn't want me to treat his workers poorly so he wouldn't let them come back. But it wasn't the workers who were bad to me. Just the owner. I would not be rude to them for coming and finishing a job. My yard is now a mess. The grass I had is tore up and there are drains drug through the yard that aren't supposed to be there. We went all summer with no pool because they made us take it down. Such a terrible company ????"

Lawn Fertilization and Treatment questions, answered by experts

The decision of whether or not to let moss grow in your yard depends on your preference. Moss is a lower-maintenance alternative to grass that looks green and lush but doesn’t require irrigation, fertilization, or mowing. Unlike grass, moss doesn’t attract pests, so it can keep your yard free from bugs as well. However, moss won’t stand up to heavy foot traffic as well as turfgrass. 

Yes, you can use compost on your lawn alongside or even instead of standard fertilizer. Compost is rich in nutrients and organic matter and restores the balance and health of your soil. It also replenishes depleted soil, adding volume as well as nutrients. It's a great alternative to synthetic slow-release fertilizer. And if you compost at home, you can save money by applying your own compost. 

Start your search for a good lawn care company by finding some landscapers in your area; it might be a good idea to research companies that already work on your block, as they’re more likely to be able to fit you into their schedules, given your proximity. Next, conduct a search online to see if they have positive customer reviews, and try to avoid companies that have poor scores or a history of complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Finally, make sure to ask each company about pricing, contracts, scheduling, and any add-on services.

Whether organic or synthetic fertilizers are better for your lawn depends on your goals, budget, and plans for other lawn treatments. Organic fertilizer costs more but is likely to benefit your lawn more in the long run by improving the soil as well as feeding your grass. Synthetic fertilizers get faster results but don’t enrich the soil and may contaminate nearby bodies of water if you live on a shoreline. A hybrid fertilizer may be an option to give you the benefits found in both organic and synthetic fertilizers.

If you notice your grass is growing quickly and it’s hard to keep up, cut down on how much you water and fertilize it. Another helpful method is to mow the grass at the highest setting your mower will allow. Mowing at a higher setting slows grass growth since the blades won’t need to repair themselves as quickly if they’re kept at a longer length.
