"We are so appreciative of Thomas at Squirrelly’s Lawn Care! We are making a quick move into a new home in a few days and do not yet have a lawnmower or tools to take care of our own yard. Squirrelly’s Lawn Care gave us an unbeatable quote, and was able to squeeze us in the next day. Since this was my first time using their services, and I would not be there in person, I was offered to receive pictures of the lawn once the job had been done, and was also given multiple options to make my payment. All of my interactions with Thomas were wonderful, and I would highly recommend their services to others!"

Eastern Turf Maintenance Inc, serving Raleigh/Durham, is your trusted partner for all your lawn fertilization and treatment needs. As a locally owned and operated business, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional service and attention to detail. Contact us today for professional and reliable lawn fertilization and treatment services.

"TLDR: If you are a homeowner in Raleigh, look elsewhere for a lawn care company. Awful service, awful communication. I chose Eastern Turf in 2021, in the beginning they did a good job of caring for my zoysia in front and fescue in back. The service associate would knock and let me know they are there and also give me information on what they were doing. Starting in 2022 the service went downhill. They would come out, never knock on the door (I work from home so always here) and would only treat the front part of my lawn (ignoring the side and back yard). Weeds have become greater than before I started to use them. About a month ago a new route manager informed me that the previous service provider missed alot. Nothing got better with the new route manager. Even after multiple calls and emails i did not receive any service calls even though the "Happier" plan included them."

FAQs for lawn care maintenance and mowing projects in Sanford, NC

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.
