Frequently Asked Questions

How much does landscape maintenance cost?

Basic lawn care (weekly mowing) typically runs $120-350/month depending on property size. Complete maintenance including beds, pruning, and cleanups ranges from $350-800/month for typical residential properties. We provide free detailed estimates based on your specific property and needs.

Do I need to be home when you service my property?

What if I'm not satisfied with a service visit?

We guarantee your satisfaction. If you're not happy with any service visit, contact us within 24 hours and we'll make it right at no additional charge. Your satisfaction is our priority.

Can I pause service during vacation or slow periods?

Yes, with reasonable notice. We understand schedules change and can adjust your service calendar. Some clients pause mowing in summer heat or during extended vacations.
