What's included
Everything under lawn maintenance
- Mowing
- Regular cutting at the right height for the season and the grass type, plus trimming and a full blow-down of walks, drives and patios before we leave. Cutting too short is what invites weeds in — we adjust the height as the summer gets hotter.
- Edging
- Clean, defined edges around beds, trees, walkways and lawn areas. It is the single detail that separates a cared-for property from a cut one, and it holds its line for weeks.
- Aeration
- Pulling cores from compacted soil so air, water and nutrients reach the roots. Northern Virginia clay compacts hard, and aeration in early fall does more for a struggling lawn than anything else you can do to it.
- Overseeding
- New seed spread over the existing lawn to thicken it up and fill the thin and bare patches. Done straight after aeration in the fall, while the seed can settle into open holes and the soil is still warm.
- Weed Control
- Removing and controlling weeds in lawn areas, beds and around plantings, so the grass is not competing for water and light.
