Services
Weekly Lawn Mowing
Our weekly lawn mowing service includes cutting all turf areas, trimming inaccessible spots, edging walks/driveways, and blowing clippings. We use commercial mulching mowers to recycle nutrients and maintain a neat appearance. Prices start at $40, with no contracts required, ensuring reliable service from April through November.
Core Aeration
Core aeration removes soil plugs to reduce compaction, allowing water, nutrients, and air to reach roots. This service is recommended annually for healthy lawns. Pricing is based on 3.5 times the weekly mowing rate, ensuring improved turf density and resilience against stress and weeds.
Poop Scoop Service
Our optional poop scoop service removes and disposes of pet waste before weekly mowing. Priced at $13 for one dog, $19 for two, and $25 for three, this service maintains cleanliness and prevents lawn damage. Fees apply if homeowners dont clean up prior to service.
Mulch Installation
We install high-quality dyed hardwood mulch to enhance landscape aesthetics, retain moisture, and suppress weeds. Priced at $125 per cubic yard (plus delivery), this service includes weeding and bed cleanup at an hourly rate. Mulch improves soil health and reduces maintenance needs.
Bush Trimming
Bush trimming and pruning services are billed hourly at $90, using commercial equipment for precision. We handle overgrown lawns, brush cutting, and debris removal, ensuring optimal plant health and curb appeal. Hourly rates apply for customized maintenance beyond weekly mowing.
