Lawn Maintenance
_______________________________
Here is a detailed break-down of our service:
Lawn Mowing
We use commercial-grade lawn mowers.
For your lawn’s health, we will mow the grass at a height of 6.25 cm (2.5″). This is the shorter side of the recommended mowing height of 6.25 cm to 7.62 cm (2.5″ to 3″) which will leave your lawn looking manicured and green while insuring its health. Mowing your lawn at this height gives each grass blade the proper amount of surface area for photosynthesis to occur, which results in building deeper and healthier roots. The healthier the root system your lawn has, the more drought, disease, insect, and weed resistant it is.
The grass clipping are left on the lawn to replenish the soil, but we will ensure that there are no clumps showing before we leave your property.* The clippings decompose quickly and release a free source of organic nitrogen to fertilize your lawn which promotes steady grass growth. It is estimated that grass clippings alone can account for up to 35% of your lawn’s required nutrients. Also, microorganisms and earthworms digest the grass clipping remnants and help to maintain healthy soil.[1]
* Lawns that are overwatered, over-fertilized, or have not been mowed in over a week will probably have clumps and excess clippings laying about. We can blow these clippings into piles on your lawn so you can rake them up if desired, or we can leave them as it is, please inform us of your preference at the beginning of the season.
Line-Trimming
A line trimmer is a hand-held device that is used to cut grass in areas that a lawn mower cannot reach, or are too steep for a lawn mower to navigate safely. They are especially useful for areas next to garden beds, foundations and fences.
Blow Away Clippings
Once your lawn has been mowed and trimmed there are usually grass clippings on the hard surfaces surrounding your lawn (ie: driveway, patio and walkways). We will blow the clippings back onto the lawn to give your property a clean and finished look.
Spring Cleanup
This service includes leaf and fallen-branch removal on lawns and gardens as well as setting a new edge on all your gardens.
In most cases, the leaves will be left on your curb the week before the municipality’s scheduled removal or pickup for your area. At some properties, the leaves may be mulched into the lawn and dispersed.
Book early to ensure your spot on the list!
