"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."
Unless it’s rubber or you need to prune suckers and remove weeds, you shouldn’t need to get rid of the old mulch around your tree. Simply push old mulch a few inches away from the trunk of your tree and then top it off with enough fresh mulch to reach 3 to 4 inches in height.
Clearing 1 acre of land takes anywhere from two to 12 hours for a professional team, depending on what they’re removing. The amount of time needed to complete the project depends on the size of your acreage, the land’s condition, the size of the crew completing the work, and what type of equipment they’re using. Smaller projects normally take a few hours, while larger projects may require one or two full workdays.
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.
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.
A standard home lawn mower with sharp blades can handle a thin layer of leaves without issue. You may need to make a couple of passes within several days to mulch leaves down, but your mower shouldn’t struggle. If your mower comes with a mulching kit, like an attachment to blow leaves out the side, that’s a good sign it’s ready for fall leaves. Set your mower to the highest or near-highest height for this project so it focuses on the leaves rather than the grass below.
