Some people prefer to take care of certain lawn care projects themselves. For the times when you want any assistance, you can use the services of a subscription company, or hire one of La Puente's full-service lawn care companies. If you elect to handle everything on your own, you could save some money up front. However, you miss out on expert guidance and advice that might help prevent costly mistakes.
Some companies, such as Sunday Lawn Care, provide assistance to supplement your DIY lawn care. Generally this is in the form of subscription packages that provide you with all the chemicals and equipment you need for your lawn, based on your location in California and the time of year. These companies offer a lot of guidance with lawn care, but you still have to do all the labor yourself.
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 might be the highest-cost option, but they will take care of not only the decision-making but also the manual labor.
There are a number of services that you might hire a La Puente lawn care company for, such as:
For any kind of need, there is a lawn care company in La Puente that can fill it. We strongly suggest getting in touch with at least one of the companies from our above list to make sure you get the right one for you.
When you choose a lawn care services company, you will want to ensure that they are reliable. Before they apply chemicals like pesticides to your lawn, a technician needs to be licensed through the California Department of Agriculture. If you need landscaping services like edging and mowing, check to see if a company meets all of California's landscaper licensing requirements. You can also learn whether a company belongs to an organization such as the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP). Membership is not mandatory, but NALP lets landscaping professionals collaborate and share information about best practices. Last but not least, you can read company reviews online and learn about their guarantees on their website. "For more than two decades, the NALP Foundation...has supported education, research, and scholarships to strengthen the future of the landscape and lawn care industry."
After you've determined the best companies in your area, you'll need to figure out which ones can provide the specific combination of services you need. Many lawn care companies in La Puente offer both fixed plans and "a la carte" options that allow you to make your own service package.
After whittling down your list even further, 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 using GPS technology before visiting your home. From there, they should be able to give you an estimate based on the size of your lawn and the specific services you need.
There are a number of things a homeowner in La Puente should keep in mind before, during, and after lawn care services. Some of those things are:
Selecting the best lawn care company in La Puente can go a long way towards feeling confident and knowledgeable when it comes to all of the work to be done. We recommend reaching out to one of the companies on our list of La Puente's best lawn care providers to discover which one is best for you.
The cost of lawn care in La Puente will be based on a handful of factors. One is how large your lawn is, and another is the type and number of services that you need. The price will also vary based on how frequently your lawn needs servicing. Subscription companies will be cheaper initially, but you will need to do the manual labor yourself. We suggest you contact one or two of the companies on our list of La Puente's top lawn service providers to obtain an estimate.
The plan that fits best for you will be dependent on what you think of the trade-off between money and work. If you do everything yourself, you won't have to pay for labor, but this option is the most work. If you choose to go with a full-service lawn care company in La Puente (such as TruGreen), they will handle all of the labor and logistics, but the up-front cost will be higher. Subscription companies fall somewhere in the middle.
Many lawn care companies will explain their ingredients on their website. Some (such as Sunday Lawn Care) use products containing natural ingredients. If you cannot find this information on a company's website, you can get in touch with them and ask.
If there is unexpected bad weather, it may alter which services are appropriate for a certain day, and your technician may need to cancel. When this happens, they will contact you to reschedule as soon as possible. Some La Puente lawn care companies also have mobile apps where you can view and change your schedule.
Going with a lawn services company — either full-service or subscription — can help make sure everything is done right, and can save you money in the future. When you use a lawn care company, you also get the benefit of professional expertise. These experts will help you determine exactly what your lawn needs, when, and how often. Additionally, they provide the products, and (in the case of full-service companies) the labor. Both of these things are normally backed by a guarantee.
