We Provide Weekly, Bi weekly,
and Monthly Maintenance.
Weekly
Lawn Cutting
Prior to mowing
your lawn areas we will remove tree limbs or obstructions. Your lawn will be
completely and evenly mowed at a height suitable for your specific needs. In
areas that are not reachable with a lawnmower, we will string trim to the
height of your adjacent lawn.
Edging
Edging is done
with a mechanical steel blade edger. Edging is for concrete borders such as
walkways, curbs and driveways
Weeding
We use
herbicide on any weed that we can safely kill without injuring your plants
or grass. We hand pull weeds within your shrubs or ground covers. We may use
more intense herbicides for persistent perennial weeds and grass control
when needed. You will always have some weeds present in a fertile growing
environment, although we try our best to control weeds without spreading
more. We will typically spray weeds one or more times to kill them first,
hand picking may then be necessary. We kill the weeds prior to picking so
the seeds won’t drop, creating more weeds. A pre-emergent herbicide can
also be used in preparation for rock to be spread in your yard this helps
eliminate weeds growing in your rock.
Fertilization
We choose the best fertilizer
based on the nutrients needed, soil structure, soil chemistry, and method of
applying the fertilizer. When fertilizer products are applied and watered,
the fertilizer dissolves and soaks into the soil. Release rate depends on
the amount of fertilizer used, temperature, and water cycle of the soil. A
recommended rate of fertilizer is evenly spread over the growing area and
left to filter into the soil twice a year or as needed.
Aeration
This is needed when your soil
becomes hard and compacted and impedes root growth, which prevents the grass
from developing the deep root system that is essential to survive hot, dry
periods. Core aeration is the process of mechanically removing plugs of soil
and thatch from a lawn to reduce soil compaction.
Mulching
Mulches are used
during the growing season and are used primarily to moderate soil
temperatures. Their roles are to retain moisture, reduce weed growth, and
mulch serves as nature’s insulating blanket. Mulch keeps soil warmer in
the winter and cooler in the summer. After seeding we will place mulch over
the top to help insulate the seed and it helps keep the birds from eating
the seeds.
Clean
Ups
Get your lawn
looking great. We will clean up all the weeds from your lawn and gardens,
mow and edge your lawn and dispose of all debris.
Raking
The rocks in
your yard become uneven as it is walked on, we rake the rocks on a weekly
basis to give your yard a more manicured look.
Backpack
Blowing
We use blowers
to collect and remove
leaves/trimmings from landscape beds and lawn. This is done on a weekly
basis.
Trimming
Proper
trimming of plants and Hedge will help increase their flowers and fruits. We
rotate the trimming in your yard, usually by doing the front one-week and
the back the following week.
Tree
Trimming:
Trees are beautiful but they can be dangerous. In storms the trees can fall
on personal property including homes and cars. Keeping them pruned, topped,
shaped and properly trimmed at the required time of year will be done for
trees 8 feet or shorter to help keep your trees beautiful and safe. We
contract another tree service to maintain trees taller than 8 feet.
Thatching
Helps
to promote a healthier, more vigorous lawn. Thatching is done once or twice
a year to help remove dead grass so the new grass can grow.
Annual
flowers
The
optimum time to plant annual flowers is the months of September & May
but they can be planted anytime at your request.
Irrigation
system maintained
Automatic
sprinkler systems are designed to water lawns and gardens effectively,
efficiently and routinely. Placement of the sprinkler heads, location of the
remote valves and the placement and scheduling of the controller are also
important components of the irrigation design. We will inspect and properly
adjust to meet your water needs monthly. We will also inspect and repair
your system if required
Planting
of winter grass
Producing quality lawns in Arizona
can be challenging. In the warm season, turf grasses are dominant in lawns.
During the fall and winter over seeding with ryegrass is required to keep
your lawn beautiful all year round.
