WHAT IS YOUR SCHEDULING PROCESS

We typically schedule for the week after our client’s approval to move forward with the service. In the prime of our season, however, it may take up to 3 weeks to add a new client to our schedule. 

WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS ON MY DAY OF SERVICE 

We do not mow, spread mulch, or lay decorative stone in the hard rain as it can cause damage to the customers property. If it rains during your scheduled service day, we will give you a call/message and let you know when your service will be rescheduled at the soonest available time. 

HOW CAN I MAKE A PAYMENT 

We accept credit, debit, cash, and check. For weekly or bi-weekly lawn maintenance accounts we require a charge card to be kept on a private file. You will be charged the day of service. 

WHY DO WE MOW WHEN MY LAWN IS WET

As a professional lawn care service our clients expect us to keep their grass mowed on schedule. This requires us to make good judgement calls on when to delay a mow. During months of the year when your lawn is actively growing it is better for us to come out and mow the lawn wet than it is to skip the lawn and run the risk of it going multiple weeks without a cut. There are times when ruts may be created in your lawn due to the lawn being wet when mowed. These ruts are almost always temporary and self fix as the lawn dries out.

If you ever feel like your lawn is too wet to be mowed on your scheduled day please contact us right away and we will be happy to pause your service. We do our best to make the best decision for our clients but because of the subjectivity of this type of situation it can be hard to get right every time for every client’s preferences. 

HOW DO YOU DETERMINE THE HEIGHT YOU CUT OUR LAWN

We determine what height to cut your lawn by a number of factors but most commonly it is based on the time of year. When we begin mowing your lawn in the spring we will mow it lower. As the temperatures warm up your grass usually needs to be cut higher in order to combat the heat. During the hot summer months, we mow your lawn very high allowing it to be as thick and green as possible. As the weather transitions to the cooler fall months, we will slowly begin to cut the lawn a little shorter each week. If you would like your lawn cut higher or shorter at any time please contact our office and we will do our very best to cut your lawn at the height you prefer. For bi-weekly cuts this can be more challenging during certain times of the year. 

PET/YARD DEBRIS

We appreciate your letting us know if you have any pets that are kept outside so that the crews will be aware of them. Our crews will make every effort not to let your pet through the gate, but we cannot guarantee your pet will not escape from your yard. Please leave your pet inside on your scheduled service days. Please pick up all pet droppings, toys, large bones, large rocks, etc. the day before we mow. If hit by a lawn mower, objects like these in your yard are hazardous to our workers and others. Serious damage can occur to your property, our equipment, or our crews. 

DOES SOMEBODY NEED TO BE HOME WHEN YOU MOW

Nobody has to be home when your lawn is mowed. All we need is access to all areas of your property that have grass.
