I provide a service of cutting grass, making planing bed planting flowers, planting trees trimming bushes, snow removal, making fire pits What’s going to make me stand out from all the competitors is my pricing you’ll get great work for less money. This would be my first year in business. I’ve been working landscaping for about five years for someone else. I figured it was time I’ll take a chance and do my own thing.

"Brutally honest and kind of embarrassing for me but this was my experience. I leave it as a buyer beware type of thing. Brady and brother and father did an amazing job although he was supposed to take down two accidental trees and told me the charge for that was part of why the estimate was high. He ended up cutting the trees to their stump but made some excuses as to why it wasn’t possible to take the stumps. He didn’t reduce my charge though. BUT, he was a no call no show to two appointments and late for the rest of them, a total of 5-7 times. Not only was this unprofessional but I had 2 fur babies that went poo outside in the backyard so .. I would make sure the yard was free of poo and close the doggie door making them stay inside. He either wouldn’t call and just show up a lot later then he told me or he’d call and say he’d be here soon, after being really late, which btw after I complained he told me that he worked for himself so was never late. Then I’d rush to let my dogs go to the bathroom and lock them in AGAIN. So one time I missed a fresh pile of poo, after making my senior dogs wait for hours without being able to go outside. He started working then stopped after 5 minutes texting me that he couldn’t mow because there was poo in the yard. Also, he bought my late husbands dirt bike and trailer, both pristine. The trailer was packed with a full toolbox and a pressure washer and all kinds of accessories. He knew what it was worth but I didn’t. Here’s the embarrassing part. I let him get away with buying everything for about $3000.00 less than I would have gotten from a fair person. If I were knowledgeable, not in mourning, smarter than, I would never have let him take anything much less let him come back after treating us so haphazardly."

Lawn Fertilization and Treatment questions, answered by experts

Yes, it can be cheaper to fertilize your own lawn. DIY lawn fertilization saves the cost of hiring a lawn care company or a company that specializes in lawn fertilization. It’s important to handle fertilizer carefully to avoid the potential dangers of getting fertilizing chemicals on your skin. Also, using the wrong type of fertilizer or misapplying it can permanently damage your lawn. On average, the cost to fertilize your lawn using a professional lawn care service is about $250 and may be worth checking into as professionals tend to have the equipment and knowledge to apply the most effective blend of fertilizer to your lawn for the best results. 

You should put pre-emergent herbicide and fertilizer on your lawn in the spring. Pre-emergent herbicide keeps weeds from taking root. Fertilizer helps your grass to grow lush and dense and blocks future weeds from growing. You can also add amendments, such as sulfur and lime, to enhance your soil quality. 

Hiring a lawn service company can free up your schedule for other tasks and ensure high-quality results. However, doing some of the maintenance yourself can reduce your monthly costs. Another factor to consider if it's worth it is whether you already own lawn equipment and tools you will need to keep your yard looking lush. Ultimately, it depends on your budget, schedule, and the type of tasks you need to complete.

Choosing the right grass seed and planting it at the right time are the most important factors in establishing fast-growing grass. You also need adequate water, sunshine, and nutrients. To speed up the growth process, you can implement some tips and tricks, including watering it deeply and frequently, and using an iron-rich fertilizer to boost its appearance.

Make your ryegrass thicker by boosting soil health. Add organic matter, aerate the lawn if the soil is compacted, fertilize appropriately, and see if your lawn needs dethatching. Your local lawn care service can come and look at your lawn and provide specific advice and remedies for your lawn issues.
