"The house must sell quickly and we choose not use Rob's services at this time. HOWEVER, he had the most detailed quote and very reasonable charges. It is very unfortunate that the family decided to sell "as is" because we feel that GreenThumb Lawn services would have been a great match."

"Excellent all around experience! Mr. Gomez personally came out promptly after I contacted his company, was very courteous, professional, and friendly. Gave me a fair estimate and sent his crew out a few days later. They came when promised and did a quick, thorough, professional, and beautiful job. They threw in extras like a lawn mow and leaf blowing. Flower beds and trees and the overall exterior of my house have not looked this good in years. I am thrilled, and so are my neighbors! Highly recommended!"

"They cleaned up our dead bushes and plants from the freeze which was a huge job. They also took care of all of the debris and even trimmed a limb that had broken. Nice guys, on time, and a delight to work with."

FAQs for lawn care maintenance and mowing projects in Austin, TX

Hiring a professional saves you time and can actually save you money in the long run. Without regular care, your lawn might develop problems like thatch buildup, diseases, or pests, which can be expensive to fix. A pro keeps your lawn healthy, so you can enjoy it without the hassle.

Mowing your lawn yourself is generally cheaper than paying someone to do it. While a lawn mower can cost between $80 and $2,500 depending on the type, professional mowing services charge between $30 and $80 per visit. Investing in your own mower means that over time, you can save money by handling the mowing yourself, especially if you maintain your lawn regularly.

While the wording may vary from company to company, lawn maintenance typically includes all the services that keep your current healthy lawn looking sharp. Think mowing, watering, weeding, and a spring or fall cleanup.

Lawn care digs a bit deeper. These packages may include services that elevate your lawn's health or address an issue throughout the year. Fertilization, pest and weed control, and dethatching all fall into this category.

There is no set-in-stone schedule for mowing your lawn, as each grass variety grows at a different rate depending on the season. Once you determine the type of grass in your lawn and its ideal height, aim to remove no more than the top third of the blade at a time to retain its healthy structure.

In the high growing season, this will likely break down to about once a week, which is why lawn care specialists often offer weekly plans.

Don’t mow your grass if it hasn’t grown more than one-third of its height since you last cut it. For example, if you want grass no more than 2 inches, don’t mow it until it’s 3 inches. Don’t cut your grass when wet, as it clumps together and places more stress on your mower’s blades and makes it harder for the sun to reach the turf. This can lead to mold or disease. Conversely, don’t mow when it’s too dry. But, if you do, be sure to raise your mower’s deck height by about half an inch to encourage slower growth.

Yes, landscaping can significantly add value to your home. High-quality landscape design offers a return on investment of 20% to 30%. A well-maintained lawn and attractive outdoor spaces enhance your property's curb appeal and market value, making it more appealing to potential buyers when you decide to sell.
