"So great! The team came and did the work thoroughly and quickly. They even removed debris from my back steps, swept up grass clippings left over by a different grass cutting provider, and removed fallen tree branches that had been a nuisance in the backyard for over a year. My garden, lawn, and mulch looks refreshed and lovely for the fall!"

"both front and backyard. I had Mario's Landscaping work on my yard since I had injured both my back and hip. They did everything I asked and with professionalism and all the workers were extremely friendly. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone that asks and I have other projects for my yard that I will be having them back."

"I had my lawn treated on July 1. I have been disappointed as I have a lot of weeds and crabgrass etc throughout my yard as well as a lot of brown spots. My sprinkler runs every other day and I only cut grass every 7 days and have the mower set at ~3.5. I spoke to the technician Aaron today and he said treating lawns have been a challenge this year. With the dry weather last year and wet spring they now have changed treatment for the lawns. It would have been nice for you to acknowledge that the previous treatment was not working and you were trying to be proactive with future treatments(even though the RX that I need today based on Aaron?s assessment is not in the truck). He did offer to come back with that tx. We get a lot of phone calls trying to upscale your services and it is frustrating when the current services are not meeting my lawns needs."

Lawns FAQs, answered by experts

It’s unlikely your leaves are a hazard, especially if you get to them while they’re dry. However, a couple of rare risks exist. University studies suggest that decaying leaves can produce organochlorines, toxic pollutants similar to man-made PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls), so avoid keeping them in an enclosed area.

Also, leaves and compost may cause the growth of fungi that can cause diseases like histoplasmosis and aspergillosis, as well as mold spores that are unhealthy for human lungs. Again, severe issues are rare, but those with compromised immune systems or allergies to mold should wear face masks when directly handling leaves.

The best way to clean an overgrown yard is to create a multi-stage game plan, from clearing out the debris to cleaning up the edges around hardscaping and landscape curbing. Get rid of yard debris like worn furniture and broken tools first, then start trimming and raking what’s left. Mow the grass, trim the hedges, and rake leaves away. Once that’s complete, move on to more detailed work, like pulling weeds and replanting gardens.

If you don’t remove a bush properly, it’ll come back each year. Removing the root system entirely is the only way to ensure the plant doesn’t have a chance to grow back. You can also use natural weed killers or you can choose to suppress the area with landscaping fabric. Additionally, consider planting alternative, non-invasive vegetation to deter the return of thorn bushes.

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.

There are several ways to dispose of excess sod, including building a compost pile, taking it to a green waste disposal facility, donating the sod, or reusing it in another part of your yard. It’s a good idea to check with your local municipality to see how to get rid of yard waste, as some areas have local regulations on what can go in the green waste bin. For example, your recycling services may reject too much soil added to green waste.
