"This was our first business with Perone Landscaping and we were highly pleased with the results and intend to use Perone again in the next several weeks. It takes time to establish a close rapport between client and provider. I feel that we now have this. I have confidence in Perone Landscaping, thought their pricing was reasonable, and would recommend that others consider working with Perone."

"My wife and I hired Maple Tree and Landscaping after dealing with various landscapers over the years that just did not work out how we wanted to. Maple Tree and Landscaping was recommended to us by one of my wifes friends and I can honestly say I have never been happier with how my yard has come along. The gentleman named Dario is such a professional and his work will speak for itself. If I could rate them more than 5 stars I would in a heartbeat. If you are looking for a Landscaping service, look no further."

"Greenland Landscaping did a meticulous and thorough job at de-weeding and trimming my yard, planting evergreens and ivy, laying landscape fabric, and generously providing and spreading mulch. They turned my eyesore yard into a beautiful one and had the best price among the four estimates that I got. They are friendly with a good work ethic. They aim to please and have happy, satisfied customers. I very highly recommend them."

FAQs for lawn care maintenance and mowing projects in Princeton Junction, NJ

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.
