"Tony and his team were very responsive and were able to provide me an estimate and mow my lawn within a few hours after contacting them. They are very detail-oriented. They moved my grill and cut the area around it and the area around my deck unlike my previous landscaper. Overall, very happy and will be using them again!"

"ET did great on the deals but when I tried to give them additional business by asking them to mow my parents' lawn, they completely dropped the ball. I was able to speak to the owner via phone and he had me text the address but never responded after that"

"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."

Customers say: Quality work

"The company responded to my inquiry very quickly and explain what type of services they could provide my lawn. The customer service representative was able to view my home via Google Maps and gave me a quote right over the phone. This was a big factor in me hiring this company. I did not have to wait for an individual to come to my home evaluate the lawn and then give me price later in the day or next day. The price was very affordable and I am very happy with their work! I hope to remain a continued customer, providing the company continues to be on-time and provide the same excellent service in cutting, edging and trimming my lawn."

"I know I might be tardy with my review, but it is sincere. My daughter was expecting my grandson to be born in mid-August. As she and her hubby were preparing their room for the baby they came across some very serious issues in the room. As a result I needed drywall to be replaced, prepped and painted, I needEd to replace the window as well as the trim, the flooring had to be replaced. Quite a big job, add the fact that the baby was coming in a couple of weeks, meant I had to find a quality contractor who can respond and complete the job in a short time. Thats where Oscar came in. He came out checked all that needed to be done and responded quickly with an estimate. He and his crew did an incredibly remarkable job with all that had to be done and the project was completed in 2.5 days. Oscar came out to check all of the work found issues I didn’t see and promptly took care of them. All construction related trash was cleaned up and disposed of. Enriquez Remodeling and Landscaping is now my go to contractor if I need work done around the house. He and his crew are prompt, dependable, professional, hardworking, does quality work all at a very reasonable price. I am proud to highly recommend. Enriquez Remodeling and Landscaping!"

FAQs for lawn care maintenance and mowing projects in Gainesville, 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.
