"This Team is Great. Had 4 huge hardwoods removed, one within 1 foot of my front porch, with most of the tree hanging over the house. Meticulous with safety for themselves as well as my property. Showed on time for estimate and for service. Took extra care with yard using heavy mats to drive over. Cleanup was way more than other tree services have provided. Very efficient and a fair price for work."

"David was amazing, efficient, friendly, and great with communication. His response time is stellar. My daughter and I have severe environmental allergies, so we need help mowing the lawn. With the rain our lawn got long. We were able to mow our front yard, with our electric mower, but my daughter got sick from her allergies. I have a rare nerve disease which disables me, so after we finished the front neither of us could start our back yard. With all the rain, our first scheduled ti.e got rained out. David contacted me promptly in the morning to reschedule. He confirmed when he was on his way, when he arrived and when he was finished. That was the best service I've had in the year that we've been here. Other contractors are either 3 hours late, no communication or spend their time trying to get you into a contract that you don't need. He just came and got it done. So refreshing! I wish we found him sooner. I will definitely recommend him to my neighbors and hire him again."

"Meeting Brigitte and her husband Doug is like a breath of fresh air. They are beautiful people. They are very conscientious and do excellent work and are very reasonably priced. I generally have a hard time selecting a contractor - for anything. I needed a retaining/garden wall installed in my front yard and a garden tilled in my back yard. My neighbor uses them for their lawn care and I knew they did a good job next door. I am so glad I called them. While they were installing the retaining wall, they cleaned up my yard, mowed and trimmed it. What more can you ask for? As someone who hesitates when trying to select a contractor, I totally get it, but do not hesitate, they really are exceptional!"

"Thank you for cutting our lawn. Matchless blades did a great job and we appreciate his hard-work. We asked for our grass to be cut short and he did just that. He took his time to make sure everything was done correctly. We look forward to our next lawn cut"

FAQs for lawn care maintenance and mowing projects in Newport News, 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.
