Don't feel up to handling lawn care by yourself? Explore using a subscription lawn care company, or reach out to one of Muscle Shoals' full-service lawn care companies. If you decide to do everything yourself, you might initially save some money. However, you miss out on expert guidance and advice that could help you avoid costly mistakes.
If you want to have expert guidance while still doing your own lawn care, you may like a company like Sunday Lawn Care. These companies provide subscription packages of lawn chemicals and tools, which are regularly shipped to your door depending on the season and where you live in Alabama. They will take care of the research and planning for you, although you still need to take care of the manual labor.
Would you rather have someone else taking care of everything? A full-service company like TruGreen may be right for you. A full-service lawn care company may be the most expensive option, but these companies take care of not only the decision-making but also the manual labor.
There are many services for which you might need a lawn care company in Muscle Shoals, such as:
No matter the need, there is a Muscle Shoals lawn care company that can fill it. We suggest getting in touch with at least one of the companies from the above list to ensure that you find the right one for you.
During Treatments: If you've opted for a subscription company, you will be the one doing the treatments based on the instructions provided by the company. If you've hired a full-service company like TruGreen, their technicians will come to your home to perform services. Your company may ask that you be home the first time they come to your house. However, you usually will not need to be present for your lawn care technician to do treatments. The company will inform you (either electronically or in writing) what services they performed and when. "NALP members have access to industry-leading tools and training to keep you on the cutting edge."
After you've determined the best companies in your area, you'll need to figure out which ones can perform the specific combination of services that you want. Many lawn care companies in Muscle Shoals offer both pre-set plans and "a la carte" options where you can make your own service package.
After whittling down your list even more, you can start to contact companies to ask about getting a free inspection and service quote. An inspection can happen quickly — some companies can even get a quick estimate of the size of your yard via GPS before they visit your home. From there, they should be able to provide an estimate based on the specific services you need and the size of your lawn.
If you've never worked with a lawn care company in Muscle Shoals before (or even if you have) you might wonder what you should expect. Here are some things to keep in mind:
Picking a trustworthy Muscle Shoals lawn care company will make you feel much more confident and comfortable with the process. Any provider you choose from our list of the best lawn care companies in Muscle Shoals can walk you through the process and help you know what to expect.
The cost of lawn care in Muscle Shoals varies based on certain factors. First is how big your lawn is. Next is the number and kind of services you need. Last but not least, there is how frequently you want services. Typically, a subscription company is less costly than a full-service company, but you will have to do the work yourself. We strongly suggest speaking with at least one of the companies from our list of the best lawn care service providers in Muscle Shoals for a quote.
The amount of money you're willing to spend and how much work you want to do will both have an effect on what type of lawn care is best for you. Going with one of Muscle Shoals' full-service lawn care companies such as TruGreen will cost the most money, but also will require the least work from you. On the other hand, doing everything on your own will be the least expensive, but will necessitate the most hard work and planning. Subscription companies are somewhere in between your other options.
When it comes to caring for your Muscle Shoals lawn, consistency is key. There are services like mowing that you'll want done every one or two weeks. Some services — like pest and weed control — can be done less frequently. Factors that could affect your lawn care schedule include the time of year, the weather in your part of Alabama, and the condition of your lawn when you first begin services.
There are certain lawn care companies (such as Sunday Lawn Care) that use products made with natural ingredients. Many companies explain what ingredients they use on their website. You can also speak with a company directly to ask for a list.
With some services, such as tree care and edging, you can see results immediately. It may take days or weeks to start seeing results from some other services, such as overseeding and fertilization. The results will also be based on the time of year and the weather in your part of Alabama.
