"We have been using Scott's Lawn Care and Landscaping for weekly service for many years. Scott is reliable and the lawn is always neatly mowed and edges are clean. Communication is good; if there's ever a small delay or schedule tweak, he let's us know ahead of time. Scott has also positively provided us with mulch services and old shrub removal. We like his attention to detail. We highly recommend if looking for dependable, professional weekly landscaping and other lawn services."

"Juan came right out to give us an estimate and started the job within days. He was very professional and explained every step along the way. We needed multiple jobs done - drainage installed around pool, landscaping rock put around, yard leveled, sod put down, and some reseeding. He did everything we asked of him and was willing to come back out and do a few additional things that we were not clear about. He went above and beyond to get the job done and done well. We would absolutely recommend him!"

"George did an absolutely incredible job building our patio. This was a massive project, with multiple levels, steps, and a beautiful fire pit, and the finished result exceeded our expectations. It was a big, challenging job, especially working through some incredibly hot weather, but George and team worked hard and delivered amazing results. The craftsmanship and attention to detail really show. The patio has completely transformed our backyard and honestly makes the whole house. It’s become one of our favorite parts of our home, and we couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. We absolutely love it and would highly recommend George to anyone looking for quality work on a major outdoor project!"

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Yes, it's perfectly safe and environmentally sound to mulch leaves with a lawn mower, provided that the layer of leaves isn't too thick and the leaves are dry and crispy. Too many wet leaves get sticky and will clog the mower. Thick layers of leaves can suffocate the lawn after the leaves have been mulched, so the layer should be no more than six inches thick.

Generally, it is not necessary to remove old mulch before applying a new layer. As organic mulch breaks down, it enriches the soil with nutrients. However, you should remove the old layer if it shows signs of fungus or disease, which can be common in moist areas, or if the total depth is already too thick. Avoid letting the total mulch depth exceed 3 inches, as this can harm plant roots. If you do remove old, disease-free mulch, it can be added to a compost pile.

The growth of tall fescue grass often causes clumps of grass in your lawn. Avoid pulling up the clumps, as it won’t effectively remove them. Instead, dig out clumps and their roots when you notice them early in the growing season. Herbicides can also treat grass clumps, but they can also affect other plants you might not want to kill, so use them sparingly and always follow manufacturer instructions.

If you are xeriscaping a lawn from scratch, your best bet for preparing the lawn is to work with a xeriscaping specialist in your area. The most common first step to making the transformation, however, will be to remove the turfgrass from your lawn. The subsequent steps will often include amending the soil to support new plants and installing low-drip or drip irrigation systems.

The least strenuous methods to get rid of leaves are to use a leaf blower, leaf vacuum, or a lawn mower, since these machines will do most of the work.
