"Nice young fellows. Came when said they would, did a good job, did not waste time, but didn't speed through the work. Polite and hard working. If they continue this way, they will have a job as long as they want it. We have 2.5 acres and a lot of people do not want to do that big a property or want to charge too much. These folks were very reasonable."

"It was easy to schedule with them and they came out promptly as scheduled for the estimate. They told me something I didn't know which wa that the city needed to prune certain trees in the 'tree lawn" between the sidewalk and the street. They were friendly and informative.  They agreed to schedule work the next week. When I didn't hear back I called tham and they arranged to have the guys out next day (it was apparently already scheduled but they hadn't called me.). They did the work very well. I have to hand it to them because they cut one tree in particular back further than I expected, but in the end they were right. All work was done professionally.

"They came when they said they would. I prefer to pay as I go and they did not require prepayment for their services. We will soon be discussing other lawn maintenance issues that concern me and if the solution is a viable one, they will be doing this as well. In other words, at this point I am happy with their work and would definitely recommend this service."

"TNR responded immediately to my inquiry and came out and did the estimate the same day! Four days later the job was done! I appreciated him contacting me the day of to let me know what time he would be here, he arrived on time, and did a fantastic job clearing out some very clogged gutters and cleaned the entire exterior of the house-- siding, roof, and soffits-- effectively removing all the built up dirt and mildew. I was very pleased with all of their work and will be calling them again in the fall!"

FAQs for lawn care maintenance and mowing projects in Gifford, IL

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.
