Customers say: Super punctual

"The initial job was done extremely well. However, the service just "decided" afterwards that I needed a weekly mowing, even though that was not discussed and no contracts were signed. The mowing was at a fair price, but I did not want to pay it weekly, so I called and asked them to stop. They came out and mowed once more, and then stopped. So the problem I had with them was communication/responsiveness; otherwise, they were fine."

"I got this Pro for my elderly disabled landlord. I live on his property and he needed lawn care but had gotten it done before Second Glance came out to give him a quote. It was a huge mess. Second Glance was very responsive and nice to me since I was the one looking and came out and my landlord hired them for monthly lawn care and then leaf removal later in the year. I've recommended a neighbor for leaf removal for a quote as well."

"Omar called me less than a minute after I submitted a request for quote and was able to come out and give me an estimate an hour later. He also returned later the same day to mow my very overgrown lawn for the first time. I'm looking forward to working with him to maintain my lawn."

"Robert and his group have been caring for my lawn, shrubs, and landscaping for many years. I am very satisfied with their outcome. Their prices are very reasonable. In addition to this, he has also done special projects for me, such as building a gravel pathway in my backyard and did an excellent job, he prunes all my bushes, aerates my lawn soil, puts down fertilizer. He's been working for me for 4 years and he has transformed my yard into a neighbourhood showpiece... I get so many compliments from neighbours regarding the current state of my yard, compared to what it was all those years ago when I first moved in!"

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