Whether you live in a homeowners association where it's mandated, or you just want to take pride in a beautifully manicured lawn, someone's going to have to maintain it. Some homeowners choose to do this task on their own. They buy fertilizer and weedkiller from the home improvement store and toil away under the sun mowing their lawns every weekend. However, there's an easier way-you can simply hire a lawn care service to do it for you. Like everything else, hiring a lawn care service isn't free.
