"It was an absolute pleasure to work with Xtra Care and the end product far surpassed our expectations of what we could accomplish with our backyard. Their team worked seamlessly from the initial quotes and overall design with Cleber, to CJ then stepping in as project manager and coordinating with Milton's crew, and then Tim working with us to recommend and plant various trees and other landscaping. We felt we were one team working on this project as we discussed options and got their feedback. And when they pushed back on any of our suggestions, they explained clearly why they wouldn't recommend our taking those steps. Because we knew this landscaping would be in place for many years to come, we spent a fair amount of time researching various options and speaking with at least five different companies before choosing Xtra Care. Even then, we debated whether to use Xtra Care only for hardscaping and bring in another company for the plantings. The end result shows us we made the right decision in choosing Xtra Care for the entire job."

"This summer's weather proved challenging to get our back yard re-landscaped. Rainy weather caused several delays but once things finally cleared, Baumann's crew came in force and did a beautiful landscaping of our back yard, including installing a sprinkler to keep things growing while we were away, installing a downspout drain, and adding pavers and a small stone patio. They also did a massive clean up of our yard, clearing out weeds, thinning out bushes, and replacing the mulch. We don't look like we live in the jungle anymore. For general yard clean-up and maintenance, these guys are great and punctual."

"My yard was a mess and Jose gave me a quote on a Friday work started on Tuesday. He and his worker tamed my garden, weeded, cleaned & mulched. Trimmed (way back) my over grown bushes and hauled all the waste away. He will be my forever landscaper. Already have more in the further. On time worked till the work was done. Jose and Martin were very polite and pricing was reasonable."

"They cut my lawn on an urgent basis but I have not been able to get confirmation that we are on their biweekly schedule for the rest of the season. Iâ  ve left 3 voicemails and sent over 3 texts, none answered. And my lawn is overdue again for cutting."

FAQs for lawn care maintenance and mowing projects in Rockville, MD

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.
