"I hired Ever's for spring clean up including cleaning up flowerbeds, installing decorative rocks in an area close to the street that only grows weeds, cutting up a fallen tree, trimming shrubs and trees and overall mulching. They arrived when promised, did a wonderful job and are great to work with. I hired Ever's to next cut down some dead trees and biweekly mowing/lawn care. Ever's was a great find and I highly recommend the company!"

"Anthony came and we talked about the project I wanted done. He was very professional and knowledgeable about what I wanted. He arrived with his crew on time and ready to get started. Anthony told the crew of four what to do and they all got started. They worked very hard and well with each other getting the job done. What a job they did my front yard and back yard are looking great with no leaves or papers that were blown in. I have hired Anthony to mow my lawns every other week thatâ s what an impression he and his crew made on me. Thank you â Thunderâ"

"Jose and his team were wonderful! I put in a request for a quote to tear out some bushes & do some garden cleanup and mulching, and within an hour had gotten a call back to discuss the job. Jose came by same-day to quote the work and his quote was significantly better than his competitors. We scheduled the work for the next day, and Jose and his team were awesome. They showed up on time, worked hard and efficiently throughout the day, maintained great communication, pointed out some maintenance I'd missed and offered to tack it on, and did really excellent work across the board. They went above and beyond in cleanup and finishing. Overall a great experience. I'll be hiring Vilchez Landscaping for my future needs!"

"W Ramirez Did a great job adding 10 Yards of Loam to my existing Lawn along with Fertilizing & Seeding. Wilfredo & his men also added 1-1/2” Wash Stone around my Fire Pit area As well as along my Vinyl Fencing to prevent Mud Splash from Rain. He and his men also Mulched my Shrub areas and added Stone around my Home Foundation. They also did a Spring Cleanup and disposed of Trimmed Tree Branches. I would recommend W. Ramirez Landscaping & Tree Service to anyone that is looking for Quality Landscaping at Reasonable Pricing. Thank you to Wilfredo & his Men."

"My wife and I couldn’t be happier with what the landscaping the team did. It was a lot and they were done in two days, and went above and beyond our expectations. Rare for many landscapers in my experience. They made recommendations I didn’t think about that didn’t impact fees that much and made a huge impact on the project’s result. Fernando was experienced, fair and pleasant to work with, as was his team. Hard workers and great at what they do. So good, my neighbor watched their work and hired them for a project, and he’s a seasoned GC who is critical of work teams. Big thumbs up for MC!"

FAQs for lawn care maintenance and mowing projects in Somerville, MA

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.
