"The team at Xtra Care has done several landscaping projects for us as well as perform our seasonal maintenance. Their work always impresses us. The transformation is like magic. The most recent project was landscaping in front of my mother-in-law’s home which turned out amazing. Prior to that they solved a problem we had with mowing a steep hillside. This past spring they completed a patio and garden project that we built a pavilion over that we use daily. It has transformed a useless part of our yard into a beautiful outdoor oasis. The crew is great and they work so hard to get things done and done right. The office staff always follows up in a very timely manner. The owners are the best and have wonderful ideas on how to improve our property. We have had a wonderful experience working with Xtra Care and are certainly planning to use them again. We truly enjoy all the improvements they have made to our outdoor spaces. We highly recommend them for your landscaping needs."

"It has been a month since I got out of the Hospital. I am on limited activities. As a result I cannot do lawn maintenance. Enter Erick Garcia of Garcia Landscape. He was able to respond back with a reasonable quote in getting my lawn mowed before winter. I would recommend him to anyone that need home services. His numbers are 240-410-8349 or 240-484-2663"

Customers say: Quick response

"I was truly impressed with their customer service, promptness, and pricing. I called early in the morning and was asked to forward my address to get a quote later in the evening. I also forwarded a picture of my home. I followed up and was informed they were less than ten minutes from my place. He gave me quote which was lower than several companies. I was even informed he could start that moment. I was extremely happy to come home to a freshly cut lawn and leaf removal. I was also educated on weeds, while my previous Gardner, was going to over charge me. I'm very satisfied with hiring Saenz Landscaping and looking forward to establishing a rapport with the company and referring him to some of my close friends."

FAQs for lawn care maintenance and mowing projects in Silver Spring, 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.
