"We had a "trouble" yard - had a tree removed in our front yard and a large area in our backyard that would not grow grass despite our best efforts. Had Steve and the Stavros team come out. They placed a straw mat with new soil and their patented fescue seed. We had new a thick lawn in about 3 weeks. Work was timely and Steve is very professional. Would highly recommend."

"I called Richard one day and he was there the following day with his crew, ready to work. I hired him to do some landscaping in my front yard. I told him that I needed selections that would be low maintenance and he delivered on my request. He removed and replaced all of the bushes, planted some flowers, added mulch and integrated some beautiful rocks as accents. I hired him to do some landscaping in my backyard a few weeks later. I let him run with his vision to create something nice. I love it! He also went the extra mile during both projects. He noticed that I had some bare spots in my lawn so he seeded the areas. When he returned for the second project and saw that the areas still needed some help, he suggested using some sod. It made a huge difference. I was very pleased with both projects. Richard is very personable and very passionate about his work. I would hire him again."

"One of the best & easiest company we have worked with that exceeded our expectations for the type of work we requested. Reached out to the owner was able to arrange services quickly for a great reasonable price. The workers that came out went above & beyond on the simple task of cutting our lawn and clearing the bushes. Since it’s a huge empty lawn next to our business I wasn’t expecting much but the grass was cut to perfection the bushes were all trimmed evenly and left with a nice shape. Great & efficient group of lawn experts!"

"I hired Property Masters to repair some low areas in my front yard and also repair where a large tree was cut down and the stump was ground to below grade. Everyone was very friendly. They was very prompt on giving me a free estimate,scheduling the job and completing the scope of work. I can't say enough on how enjoyable it was to work with Property Masters. They are a professional company and back it up."

FAQs for lawn care maintenance and mowing projects in Indianapolis, IN

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.
