AM Cutts and Property Services is a lawn care service that specializes in everything from tree trimming to leaf removal. We have competitive rates and a professional staff to handle your lawn care needs.

"The good: Jeff responded to my Angi's request within a day. We agreed on a time for him to come to my home to give me an estimate. He came out on time and gave me an estimate of $1175 to weed the landscaped parts of my property and spread 10 cubic yards of pine bark mulch. I've been mulching my own yard for the last decade plus, so I know exactly how much mulch costs. The quoted price was a little higher than what I was anticipating, but not unreasonably high. We scheduled a date for them to come out. The crew arrived on time and worked throughout their 3+ hours here. The not-so-good: Jeff's method of weeding is not to pull up weeds by their roots, but to mow them with his edger. I was not expecting this. So all the weeds are just going to grow back. Jeff also used his edger to mow an area in the backyard that was mostly ground-cover plantings and strawberry plants that we just beginning to form berries. There were also some weeds mixed in that area - I was expecting him to pull up the weeds, but instead he blitzed everything and covered the entire area with mulch. So now we have no strawberries and no ground cover in that area of the yard. I was upset about this and spoke to Jeff. He said that he thought the entire area was weeds and basically blamed me for not pointing out the strawberries and ground-cover plants when he came out to give me an estimate. He is right that I did not point these out at this time, but neither did I point out any of the other plantings that I did not wish to be destroyed (I have a fairly big yard with lots of plantings). The second issue that came up, which I was not expecting, is that about halfway through their time working, Jeff told me that he'd need 15 cubic yards of mulch to finish. As I said, I have been mulching my myself yard for the decade plus I've been living here, and I've always needed between 9 to 11 cubic yards (the number decreases as the ground-cover plantings spread). Last year I ordered and spread 9 cubic yards, but I actually needed 1 cubic yard more. I don't know why Jeff needed 50% more mulch. That increased the total price to $1400."

Sprinkler system for lawn and garden winterizes or activates FAQs

Winterize your sprinkler system before the first deep freeze in your area, typically from late September to early October. This ensures no water remains in the pipes to freeze and cause damage, preventing costly repairs and preserving your system's integrity.

You should open your sprinkler system in spring only after the last hard freeze has ended. Begin by testing the system once temperatures remain robustly above 32°F and the risk of frost has completely dissipated. This method protects your system from pressure shocks and minimizes repair risks, ensuring optimal performance for the new season.

The cost to run an irrigation system depends on factors such as water usage, local water rates, and the efficiency of your system. On average, homeowners may spend between $10 and $50 per month on irrigation water. To minimize costs, consider installing a water-efficient system and scheduling watering during cooler times of the day to reduce evaporation. Regular maintenance also helps ensure your system operates efficiently.

If you live in a warm climate where freezing temperatures are rare, you do not need to winterize your sprinkler system. In regions where temperatures consistently remain above freezing, water will not remain in the pipes long enough to cause freeze damage. However, it's still important to perform regular maintenance to keep your system running efficiently. Reviewing local weather forecasts and consulting a professional ensures that your system operates effectively without unnecessary maintenance.
