Your lawn contributes a lot to the appearance of your home, but maintaining it can take a lot of time and effort. Palm Springs sees warmer temperatures than 96.1% of the U.S., which means your lawn might require extra attention during the hotter months.
To help get your lawn in its best shape ever, we've assembled a list of Palm Springs' top-rated lawn care service providers. Scroll down for our list, which will help you choose the best provider for your lawn.

Don't want to tackle lawn care on your own? Explore using a subscription lawn care company, or reach out to one of the full-service lawn care companies in Palm Springs. When you decide to go it alone, you don't pay labor costs, but don't receive any professional guidance. This opens the door to potentially expensive mistakes that you can't foresee.
If you want to take some of the guesswork out of lawn care, you may like a company like Sunday Lawn Care. These companies will send you subscription packages of lawn chemicals and tools, which are periodically sent to you depending on the season and where you live in California. They take care of the research and planning for you, although you still have to do the manual labor.
If you would rather be completely hands-off, a full-service company like TruGreen is going to be the best avenue for you. This option might be the most expensive, but there is a good reason for this: they not only provide custom solutions to all your lawn care headaches, but they take care of the manual labor.
There are a number of different services that the lawn care companies around Palm Springs can provide, including:
No matter your needs, there is a Palm Springs lawn care company that is able to meet them. We strongly suggest contacting one or two of the companies on the list above to find the perfect one for you.
When it comes to choosing a company, you first should make sure that you are choosing a reliable one. If a technician is going to apply chemicals like pesticides as part of their services, they will need to be licensed through the California Department of Agriculture. If they are going to be doing landscaping services, such as mowing or edging, you can look to see if they meet all of the landscaper licensing requirements for California. After you've verified a company's licensure, you can see if they belong to an organization like the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP). This is an optional association that helps members collaborate and provides information regarding best practices in the industry. You can also read online reviews and check the company's website to find out exactly what guarantees they offer. "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 found the best companies in your area, you'll need to determine which ones offer the specific combination of services that you want. Many Palm Springs lawn care companies offer both pre-set plans and "a la carte" options that give you the opportunity to make your own lawn care package.
Once you've decided which companies you want to contact, you can reach out and ask for a free inspection and estimate. Via GPS technology, some companies are able to estimate how big your lawn is and offer a quote over the phone. The estimate will be based mainly on the specific services you need and the size of your lawn.
There are certain things a Palm Springs homeowner should keep in mind before, during, and after their lawn is treated. Some of those things are:
Picking the right Palm Springs lawn care company will help you feel confident and well-informed regarding all of the work being done on your lawn. We suggest getting in touch with one of the companies on our list of the best lawn care providers in Palm Springs to find the right professional for your needs.
The amount you will pay for lawn care in Palm Springs will depend on several factors. One is your lawn's size, and another is what kind of services you need. The price will also depend on how often your lawn needs services. Subscription companies will be less expensive initially, but you will need to do the manual labor yourself. It is strongly suggested that you get in touch with a couple of the companies on our list of the top lawn service providers in Palm Springs to get an estimate.
The amount of money you want to spend and the amount of work you want to do will both affect the lawn care model that is the best fit for you. Choosing a full-service lawn company in Palm Springs such as TruGreen will cost the most, but will also require the least manual labor on your part. Conversely, doing everything yourself will cost the least, but will require the most planning and hard work. Subscription companies fall in between your other options.
Throughout the year, your lawn should receive aeration and fertilization, weed and pest control, and tree and shrub care as needed. When it's warmer out, you should think about tackling seeding/overseeding and soil care. When it starts to get cooler, you might need leaf and snow removal, and you may need to winterize your lawn. The pros of choosing a Palm Springs lawn care company include receiving expert help finding what schedule works best for you and your lawn.
Pets should be kept inside during lawn treatments, whether you've hired someone or are doing it yourself. Full-service companies will let you know when you can allow your pets to be on your lawn again. If you order products from a subscription company, the company should provide this information along with all of their products.
If your Palm Springs lawn care company must cancel your service, they will be in touch with you to reschedule as soon as possible. Some companies even have mobile apps where you are able to see and adjust your schedule.
Going with a lawn services company — either full-service or subscription — will help make sure everything is done right, and save you money down the road. When you use a lawn care company, you also reap the benefits of their professional expertise. These experts can help you decide exactly what your lawn needs, when, and how often. They also provide the products, and (if you hire a full-service company) the labor, both of which are normally backed by a guarantee.
