Having a beautiful lawn takes more than just a green thumb; it takes a lot of physical energy and time, an understanding of the timing of seasonal watering and fertilizing, and knowledge including when to mow the grass and to what length in order to ensure it will thrive and provide the lush look you desire.
Lawn Requirements and Considerations
Different types of lawns will have different requirements throughout the year. For example, fertilizers and chemicals applied to a lawn at strategic times will boost the natural growth of the grass, while specific water levels have to be considered for both the good of the grass and preserving water resources.
To accomplish all of this, and to give your lawn the added value of professional mowing and management practices, it is best to turn to a professional lawn care service. Doing so will not only lower the overall cost and time you put into it, but will reap other benefits as well:
- Free time – a well-maintained lawn will take hours of care and work. By working with a lawn care service, you can choose to have them do some of the work or all of it, but either way limiting the amount of free time you have to spend working in the yard.
- Avoid unnecessary chemical treatments – fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides can create a risk for the environment, particularly if they are used incorrectly or at a wrong point in the growth cycle of the lawn. By using a lawn care service, you can prevent these types of issues that could negatively impact both the lawn and the environment.
- Proactive care – unless you are trained to detect early signs of insects and diseases on your grass and plants, by the time a problem is detected, it can already be too late to save any of it. With lawn care services in place that proactively inspect and manage your lawn for early signs of problems, there is less risk of any damage taking place to your yard.
Finding a lawn service you trust is important. Take the time to compare and review different companies before choosing the best one for your property.
