When you hire a lawn care contractor, you get the advantage of the best equipment that is always maintained and in top shape. For example, did you know that cutting your grass with blades that aren't sharp can damage your lawn?
Fall holds a unique charm, offering "air so crisp you could snap it with your fingers and greens in every lush shade imaginable offset by autumnal flashes of red and yellow." (Wendy Delsol, Stork)
Unfortunately, the people you rent your home to may not always have the same idea of maintaining the landscaping as you do. If you want to ensure that your landscaping doesn't fall into ruin by the time they move out, we're always available to help.
Were you aware that if your grass clippings are returned to the lawn and not bagged, a full pound of nitrogen can be recovered? This nitrogen can be used by the grass plants, reducing the need for at least one nitrogen application per year.
