  • Biweekly Mowing: Budget-friendly option for slower growth periods

  • Season Window: Spring green-up through late fall, with flexible start/stop dates

Our Lawn Mowing Process

  1. Quick Estimate: Share your address and lawn photos (front/back). We confirm turf areas and gates.

  2. Set Your Plan: Pick weekly or biweekly, preferred day, and any notes (pets, gate codes, toys, etc.).

  3. First Service: Crew lead confirms scope and notes tricky spots for future visits.

  4. Ongoing Visits: Same window each service day; rain delays are communicated and rescheduled promptly.

  5. Quality Checks: Periodic supervisor pass-throughs to keep cut height and edging dialed in.

Route Days & Communication

  • We assign you a route day so your lawn is serviced on a predictable cadence.

  • Text notifications the day before and when we’re en route (optional).

  • Need to skip a visit? Text us by 5pm the day prior to avoid a call-out fee.

Cut Height & Turf Health (How We Protect Your Lawn)

  • We follow the one-third rule: never remove more than a third of the blade in a single cut.

  • Summer heat? We raise the deck to reduce stress and conserve moisture.

  • We rotate mowing patterns to limit ruts and encourage upright growth.

Rain & Weather Policy

If heavy rain makes mowing harmful (or messy), we’ll text you and move to the next viable window. Wet grass clumps and mower marks aren’t our style—we’d rather deliver a clean cut one day later than a poor cut today.


Clippings & Disposal

  • Mulch mow by default to return nutrients and reduce thatch issues.

  • Bagging available upon request for special occasions or excessive growth.

  • We always blow off hard surfaces before we go.

Cost & Factors (Straight Talk, No Surprises)

Pricing depends on:

  • Lawn size & complexity (fences, slopes, obstacles, tight turns)

  • Visit frequency (weekly vs. biweekly)

  • Edging intensity (initial edge vs. simple maintenance)

  • Bagging requests (if you prefer bagged clippings)

Property Prep Tips (Optional but Helpful)

  • Unlock gates; let us know about pets or electric/invisible fencing.

  • Pick up toys, hoses, and yard decor on mow days for a faster, cleaner result.

  • Mark irrigation heads or shallow landscape lighting near edges.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Lawn Mowing Service

  • Weekly or biweekly—what should I choose?

    Weekly delivers the cleanest look and healthiest turf during peak growth. Biweekly works in early spring/late fall or for slower-growing lawns.

  • Do you edge every time?

    We keep edges crisp. Depending on growth and soil, that can mean a hard edge every few visits and maintenance passes in between.

  • What if I forget to unlock a gate?

    We’ll attempt contact upon arrival. If we can’t reach you, we’ll service accessible areas and reschedule the remainder.

  • Can you bag clippings?

    Yes, upon request. Most clients prefer mulch mowing for lawn health; bagging is available for special events or extra-tall growth.

  • How do rain delays work?

    We text updates and shift to the next open slot—always aiming to keep you on a predictable route.

  • Do you offer other seasonal services?

    Yes. Ask about Leaf Removal in the fall and Snow Plowing in winter.
