"The hardest working person I've ever met. I was in desperate need of lawn mowing services because the last guys just never showed up without any word. After searching Jason of JP's Lawn Service came out same day and gave me a quote that seemed to be to good to be true. Days later my yard has never looked better. I highly recommend JP's Lawn Service."
"Bruce started the work with a talk and walk through of the lawn. He explained the basic elements of caring for the lawn and put his plan to work. Within several treatments, the lawn's weed count decreased dramatically and the rich green came on strong. I have worked with Bruce for several years and his treatment has led to dramatic improvements in my lawn."
"They did an outstanding job within the agreed time frame. My yard was horrible but it’s one of the best looking one on my block. I will reach out to New Ground Services on any of my lawn maintenance and design services."
"They got here about 9 am and were through around 10 am. They were fast and cleaned up after they were through. I am very pleased with the work that was done. The crew was friendly and through."
"Danny was a pleasure with which to work. His estimate to repair the sweep and threshold on our front door was reasonable. He worked quickly and diligently to make sure the door was repaired to perfect working order. Danny cleaned up all his work and let the work site just as he found it, only better! We love the way the door works now and we will do business with him again."
"Blake did an excellent and thorough job. We had a leak that he diagnosed and fixed which ended up being a roof issue. He repaired some exterior window framing and also installed new tile floors. He is very detail oriented and his work is impeccable. I have already referred him to neighbors and will definitely use him again."
Armadillos are attracted to water, so a leaky irrigation system or an overwatered lawn can encourage them to move in. They especially like wet areas where they can burrow and loose soil where they can dig for grubs. They are also attracted to dense ground cover, where they can often find food sources.
While you don’t need to put anything down before mulch, you can apply a pre-emergent herbicide to prevent weed growth. As long as you remove weeds before you spread mulch, you should be in the clear. But a herbicide is something that you can put down before mulch as an extra layer of protection.
How often you should maintain your yard depends on your climate and what season it is. A general rule of thumb is to maintain a lawn height of three inches.
To remove old grass effectively, you typically need to dig to one to two inches. This depth typically allows you to reach the root system of the grass, ensuring thorough removal. However, if the grass is a particularly dense or deep-rooted variety (such as Bermuda grass), or if you're planning to replace it with a different landscaping feature, you may need to dig deeper to loosen the soil and remove any underlying roots.
Don’t pick up dirt after aerating. Even though it's tempting because soil cores are incredibly unsightly, these cores and the dirt they leave behind are ecologically important. This is what keeps your grass looking beautiful and growing healthily. The soil cores need two to three weeks to decompose, but you can swat them with a rake if their natural shape bothers you.
