DIY vs Professional Lawn Care - Which is Better?


When you need to do lawn care, if you don't want to handle everything on your own you can use either a subscription company or one of South Pasadena's full-service lawn care companies. When you do everything yourself, you will save on labor costs, but miss out on a lot of professional guidance. This opens the door to potentially expensive mistakes in the future.

Some companies, such as Sunday Lawn Care, offer assistance with DIY lawn care. Generally this is in the form of subscription packages that provide you with all the necessary chemicals and equipment for your lawn, depending on your location in California and the time of year. These companies offer a lot of guidance with lawn care, but you still need to make time to do the work.

Prefer to have someone else take care of everything? A full-service company like TruGreen may be best for you. A full-service lawn care company may be the highest-cost option, but full-service companies take care of not only the decision-making but also the manual labor.

Regardless of your needs, there is a lawn care company in South Pasadena that is able to meet them. It is in your best interest to get in touch with one or more of the companies on our list above to determine which one is right for you.

Choosing a South Pasadena Lawn Care Company


It is important to choose a lawn care services company that is reliable. If the technician is going to apply chemicals like pesticides around your property, they will need to be licensed through the California Department of Agriculture. If you need them to perform landscaping services (such as mowing), they will have to meet all of the landscaper licensing requirements for California. A company may also be a member of an organization like the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP). Lawn care companies are not required to be members of NALP, but the association allows companies to collaborate and share information on best practices. To learn even more about a company, you can explore their website to see what kind of guarantees they offer, and read online reviews.

"NALP members have access to industry-leading tools and training to keep you on the cutting edge."

Next you will want to determine which companies offer the specific services that you need. Many lawn care service companies in South Pasadena can offer you both fixed plans and "a la carte" options, where you are able to pick and choose exactly which services you need.

The next step is to get an inspection and quote. Even before they see your property, some companies can give you an estimate with GPS technology. This estimate will be based largely on the size of your lawn and the specific services you need.

Frequently asked questions for lawn care companies


What is the fee for lawn care in South Pasadena?

The price of lawn care in South Pasadena varies based on several factors. First is your lawn size. Next is the kind and number of services you want. Finally, there is the frequency with which you want services. Generally, a subscription company is less costly than a full-service company, but you will have to do the work yourself. It is recommended that you contact one or more of the companies from our list of South Pasadena's best lawn care service providers to get a quote.

Which style of lawn care is my best option: DIY, a subscription package, or a full-service company?

The amount of money you want to spend and how much work you are willing to do will both affect the type of lawn care that is best for you. Using one of South Pasadena's full-service lawn care companies such as TruGreen will cost the most, but will also require you to perform the least manual labor. On the other end of the spectrum, handling everything on your own will be the least expensive, but will require the most hard work and planning. Subscription companies are somewhere in between the other options.

What if I need a South Pasadena lawn care services company to handle mulching, gardening, crabgrass, or some other service?

There are certain lawn care companies that provide a wide variety of services, and others that specialize in a small number of practices. If you want to know whether a South Pasadena lawn care company offers a specific lawn care service, we suggest reaching out to them directly.

How frequently should I have work done on my lawn in South Pasadena?

The frequency with which your lawn in South Pasadena needs care will depend on things like the condition your lawn is in at the start of services, the time of year, and the weather in your part of California. Some services — like mowing — should be done every two weeks, and other services (like pest and weed control) can be done more infrequently. Generally, when it comes to lawn care, consistency is key.

Why would I pay a lawn care services company in South Pasadena instead of simply paying a neighbor to take care of my lawn?

Using a lawn services company — either full-service or subscription — will help make sure everything is done right, and will save you money down the road. When you use a lawn care company, you also reap the benefits of their professional expertise. These experts will explain to you exactly what your lawn needs, when, and how frequently. Additionally, they provide the products, and (if you hire a full-service company) the labor. Both of these things are usually backed by a guarantee.
