Customers say: Quick response

"They did not do a detailed job of pulling weeds. The price quoted was not worth the quality of the work. I had asked for a complete lawn cleanup and all flower beds to be weeded and I had to stop them before they left to get them to do the back only for them to say that is too much work."

"Calixto has taken care of my lawn for seven years and I hope they will continue to do so. Their rates are fair and their people are very thorough and reliable. They are also very courteous and respectful of our property, even when we forget to put hoses and tools out of their way. My daughter got some chickens this year so I hope they will be able to accommodate her request when I hear back from them. As well as lawn work they have also cleaned my gutters and I plan to have them do that again as well."

"Very good crew. They came when they said they would, did a very good job (I only needed my lawn mowed, but they did a great job on a lawn that had gotten a bit out of control). Very courteous and helped with a few things I needed done that had nothing to do with why I hired them."

"Max Giron came out to our home for a quote for tree work. He listened very carefully and gave us a quote for his services. He, and his company, came by in a few days after we agreed to the price quote. His workers did a great job and cleaned up completely. We are very pleased with his work and would recommend him ."

FAQs for lawn care maintenance and mowing projects in Fredericksburg, VA

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.
