"RL Groundforces Landscaping did a great job at redoing our front yard bedding. Removed old mulch and weeds, and revamped with new mulch, edging and looks brand new. Reliable, trustworthy and affordable. I will use them again."

"MWB Outdoor did an amazing job. Very professional and hard working. They are very methodical and maintain safety in every aspect of the job. Before the job was over Angie’s list called me and asked a couple of questions—then created a review in my name rating MWB with a 3 star and stated job wasn’t complete. This is my only review and if there was a rating higher than 5 MWB would get it. "

Customers say: Quality work

"The quality of the work (lawn and shrub trimming) was satisfactory overall. However, the excess grass was usually blown into our mulch and the trimmings were often hidden behind the shrubs. We would always be able to fill a whole garbage can of trimmings after they left. Customer service was zero, but I have to select a one-star minimum. There was damage done on a regular basis. We had drip lines in the middle of our landscaping cut. (I assume as they trimmed shrubs), landscape lights cut and ran over, buried landscape lines cut because they trench so deep with an edger (even after we asked several times to not use the edger), driveway/sidewalks gouged out with the edger, and a fence taken out by the edger even though it was a foot from the edge. Not on one occasion did they make the repair or offered to pay for the repair. We decided to send a professional text to let them know we would no longer need their services, and we got a nasty reply. Apparently, we were the problem because we complained. Well, we complained because we expected a professional service to do a professional job, and if that is too much to ask then we do not want you provided a service to us. The value is fine for the money but the saying goes you get what you pay for. We paid them a monthly fee ($80) for our lawn on an annual basis whether they cut it or not (we just went three weeks without a cut, and that was fine because in the warmer months it is typically cut weekly). We also pay a monthly fee ($60) for shrub trimming whether we get it or not. The price was reasonable, but not if we continuously make repairs to our house, lighting, etc. We are switching services and paying much more but the quality of the work is superior and worth every penny."

FAQs for lawn care maintenance and mowing projects in Melbourne, FL

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.
