Everything you need to know about our services

General Questions

How quickly can I get a quote? â–¼

Request a quote online or call us at (440) 886-7318. Our team will review your property details and follow up with custom pricing.

Do you offer one-time services or just recurring maintenance? â–¼

We offer both! Whether you need a one-time spring cleanup, regular weekly mowing, or a comprehensive year-round package, we've got you covered. You can choose from our pre-built packages or create a custom plan that fits your needs.

Are you insured? â–¼

Absolutely. We are fully licensed and insured to protect both our team and your property.

Lawn Care Services

What's included in weekly lawn maintenance? â–¼

Our weekly lawn maintenance includes:

  • Professional mowing with sharp blades
  • String trimming around edges and obstacles
  • Edging along sidewalks and driveways
  • Blowing off all hard surfaces (driveway, walkways, patio)

We leave your property looking professionally maintained every single visit.

When does lawn care season start and end? â–¼

Our lawn care season typically runs from March through November, depending on weather conditions. We'll start mowing when grass begins actively growing in spring and continue through fall until growth stops for the season.

Do I need to be home when you service my lawn? â–¼

Nope! Most of our customers aren't home during service. As long as we have access to your property and any gates are unlocked (or you've provided us with gate codes), we'll take care of everything. You'll come home to a beautifully maintained lawn.

What if I have dogs? â–¼

We work with pets all the time! Just let us know about your dogs when you request a quote, and we'll work out the best arrangement. Some clients keep their dogs inside during service, while others have fenced areas we can work around.

Seasonal Services

What's included in spring cleanup? â–¼

Spring cleanup includes:

  • Removal of leaves, sticks, and winter debris
  • Cutting back perennials and ornamental grasses
  • Bed edging and definition
  • First mow of the season
  • Complete property cleanup and hauling away all debris

We get your property ready for the growing season ahead.

When should I schedule aeration? â–¼

We recommend aerating your lawn twice per year - once in spring and once in fall. Aeration helps relieve soil compaction, improves drainage, and allows nutrients to reach grass roots more effectively. It's one of the best things you can do for a healthy lawn.

Do you handle leaf removal in the fall? â–¼

Fall cleanup includes leaf removal from lawn and landscape areas, along with branches and seasonal debris. We haul away collected material. Service typically runs weekly from late October through November, sometimes into early December depending on weather. Your quote will confirm the visits and areas covered for your property.

Snow Removal

How does snow removal pricing work? â–¼

We offer seasonal snow-removal contracts. Your quote is based on the driveway layout and the areas or additional services you want included. Contact us for pricing for your property.

What time do you plow? â–¼

Our seasonal driveway service uses a trigger of 2 inches or more of new snowfall. Timing depends on when the storm begins and ends, accumulation, road conditions, and our scheduled route, so we cannot guarantee a specific arrival time. During a long or heavy storm, an initial pass may be followed by final clearing.

Do you offer salt/ice control services? â–¼

Yes! We offer salting and ice control services to keep your driveway and walkways safe during winter. This can be added to your snow plowing service or scheduled separately.

Pricing & Payment

How do you charge for services? â–¼

Pricing depends on the service and your property size. For regular lawn maintenance, we typically charge a flat monthly or per-visit rate. One-time services like cleanups are quoted individually. We'll always provide clear, upfront pricing before any work begins.

What payment methods do you accept? â–¼

We accept checks, credit cards, and ACH bank transfers. Payment details and invoices are managed through our customer portal for your convenience.

Is there a contract? â–¼

For seasonal services like regular lawn maintenance, we typically work on a seasonal agreement (March-November). For one-time services, there's no long-term commitment required. We want you to stay with us because you love the service, not because you're locked into a contract.

Scheduling & Communication

How will I know when you're coming? â–¼

Regular maintenance customers are typically scheduled on the same day each week. You can also check your service schedule anytime through our customer portal. For one-time services, we'll schedule a specific date with you in advance.

What if it rains on my scheduled day? â–¼

We monitor weather conditions and will reschedule if needed. Light rain usually doesn't stop us (grass doesn't stop growing!), but we won't mow in heavy rain or when conditions would damage your lawn. We'll catch up as soon as conditions improve.

Can I skip a week or pause service? â–¼

Yes! If you're going on vacation or need to pause service for any reason, just let us know ahead of time. We're flexible and will work with your schedule.

What if I'm not satisfied with the service? â–¼

Your satisfaction is our top priority. If you're ever unhappy with our work, call us immediately at (440) 886-7318. We'll come back and make it right - no questions asked. We're not satisfied until you are.
