Lawn care and maintenance in Carmel
A lawn and beds that look cared for all season, and your weekends back.
Mowing done right is most of a healthy lawn. We cut at the right height for your grass, keep the blades sharp so the tips don't tear and turn brown, and change the mowing pattern so the wheels don't wear ruts. Edges get trimmed and clippings get blown off the walks and driveway every visit.
Around the mowing we handle the seasonal work: spring and fall cleanups, aeration and overseeding, fertilizing on a schedule that fits your grass, bed weeding, mulch, and pruning each shrub at the right time of year for that plant. You choose what's on the list.

How short should the grass be cut?
Taller than most people think. Cool-season lawns like bluegrass and fescue do best around three to three and a half inches, and no single mowing should take off more than a third of the blade. Taller grass shades out weeds and holds up better in summer heat. Warm-season grasses like Bermuda are kept shorter.
When should a lawn be aerated and seeded?
For cool-season grass, early fall. The soil is still warm, the weeds are slowing down, and new seed gets fall and spring to root before its first hot summer. Warm-season lawns are aerated in late spring instead.
