"I highly recommend Lawn Services by a Veteran! I had requested quotes from other larger companies in the area and hadn t heard back from them over the span of a week or two. Within 5 minutes of going through home advisor Eric called me and was ready to come cut my grass the same day! We waited a week instead and even though it rained yesterday, he still got out here early today and had the whole yard cut and edged up in an hour! He will definitely be helping us out with our lawn from now and on. He s also reasonably priced and does good honest work! Make sure you tip him because he deserves it."

"Malcolm Copeland was the most reasonable & professional person in business that we have encountered. he worked tireless on the project and never faltered until the job was completed to perfection. This kept us informed of the progress every hour by mouth and phone calls. If you ever need work on pumps and sprinklers this is the company."

"They appear to be an outstanding company. Rep was courteous, knowledgeable and thorough. On-time appointment for review of lawn area in order to provide best quote solution. Timely responses and contact. Would be a great choice. Might just be a one-time deal this particular situation/time...I just couldn't pass up an offer that outbid them and other company quotes by few hundred dollars, though their quote was second best price and not quite as far off. Will definitely consider them for potential future yard/lawn work though."

"Great install and even better person. Jo is true to his word and was the most affordable out of the 4 estimates that I received. He did great work with minimal damage to the lawn. I have a huge lawn (approx 5500 sq ft) and the job took half a day the first day with a follow up next for adjustments and what not. I was surprised at how quick it took. There were a few concerns that I had but Jo was quick to resolve with no complaints. First, the pump that was placed in the crawl space didn't allow enough room for an individual to move freely to and from the crawlspace. Corrected the next day. Also, one of the sprinkler heads didn't pop back down and there was a narrow area in my backyard that wasn't getting watered. Corrected once Jo had the proper sprinkler heads. Give Jo a chance and get a free estimate. Act fast though as he stated to me that his installs are getting backed up."

"Thank you for cutting our lawn. Matchless blades did a great job and we appreciate his hard-work. We asked for our grass to be cut short and he did just that. He took his time to make sure everything was done correctly. We look forward to our next lawn cut"

Customers say: Quality work

"These guys were extremely professional and personable. Did thorough assessment of my systems health - what was working well and what needed repair, and then proceeded to fix identified problems. Extremely efficient attacking the job with absolutely no artificial down time to pad their price. Labor rate and replacement equipment pricing was quite reasonable. Now that they have â rescuedâ my irrigation system, I do not anticipate a need to call them again; but would do so in the blink of an eye if needed. If your irrigation system needs attention , these are the guys to call !!! ð ð"

Lawn Care FAQs, answered by experts

Cut your lawn a bit shorter before the winter, typically between 2 and 2½ inches, depending on the variety of grass. On average, the best height to cut grass typically falls between 2 and 3 inches throughout the year. Aim for the shorter side of this range when you mow for the last time of the year to avoid common winter lawn diseases and moisture issues.

While it's a good idea to water your grass during a drought or when temperatures are high, you should not water your lawn every day. For most lawns, watering one to three times per week is sufficient. Avoid watering in the middle of the day or when the temperature is above 95 degrees Fahrenheit, as the extreme heat will cause the water to evaporate before the soil can fully absorb it. The best time to water your lawn in the summer is in the early morning at dawn or in the early evening, such as between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m., when it's cooler.

Both zoysia grass and bermuda grass are somewhat similar to St. Augustine because they’re all warm-season grasses. Beyond that, most grass types have unique properties that set them apart. Zoysia grass costs twice the price of St. Augustine grass on average and it has thinner blades and a deeper green appearance. Bermuda grass, compared to St. Augustine, has much thinner blades, is softer to the touch, and has a higher tolerance for colder weather.

It never hurts to ask a lawn care professional if their prices are negotiable, but generally, they aren’t. However, you might be able to negotiate a deal on bundled services from the same lawn care service. Consider talking to your lawn mowing service provider about discounts on other services, like tree removal, leaf removal, snow removal, or weeding.

Many homeowners in warmer climates like this resilient, hearty grass because it can tolerate excessive heat and drought while developing into a lush lawn. Unlike other grasses, Bermuda grass grows and spreads quickly and can withstand excessive foot traffic. But whether Bermuda grass is good for lawns may depend on your geographic location, as this grass has a low tolerance for cooler temperatures, which causes it to go dormant and turn brown in the winter months.
