Generally, there are three ways to do lawn care: handling all of it yourself, using the services of a subscription company, or hiring one of the full-service lawn care companies in Montgomery. Caring for your lawn on your own could save you money at first. However, without the help and guidance of a lawn care professional, there is a chance of you making mistakes that prove expensive in the future.
A company like Sunday Lawn Care can help simplify the process. These companies will mail you a subscription package of lawn care equipment and chemicals. They do the work of figuring out what your lawn needs and when, based on the season and where you live in Ohio. However, you will still be the one doing the manual labor.
Rather have someone else take care of everything? A full-service company like TruGreen may be right for you. A full-service lawn care company might be the most expensive option, but these companies take care of not just the decision-making but also the manual labor.
There are many services that you might employ a Montgomery lawn care company for, such as:
No matter what services you want, there is a Montgomery lawn care company for the job. We strongly suggest looking into one or more of the companies on our list above to determine which one is right for you.
When choosing a lawn care services company, you want to know that they are reliable. Before they apply chemicals like pesticides to your lawn, a lawn care professional needs to be licensed through the Ohio Department of Agriculture. If you are hiring for landscaping services like mowing and edging, you can look and see if a company meets all of Ohio's landscaper licensing requirements. You can also find out if a company belongs to an organization like the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP). Lawn care professionals are not required to be members, but NALP helps landscaping professionals collaborate and share information on best practices. Finally, you can read company reviews online and browse their website to learn more about the guarantees they offer. "[Our mission is to] advocate for lawn and landscape industry growth and the benefits we provide to our communities."
Next, you'll want to determine which companies in Montgomery have the specific services you need. A company may have both plans and "a la carte" options where you can pick and choose specific services.
Once you've figured out which companies to call, you can ask them for a free inspection and estimate. Via GPS technology, some companies can estimate your property size and offer a quote over the phone. The total price will be based mainly on the specific services you need and the size of your lawn.
If you've never worked with a lawn care company in Montgomery before — or even if you have — you might have some questions about what to expect. The following are some things to keep in mind:
By choosing a provider from our list of Montgomery's best lawn care companies, you'll be in good hands. Your Montgomery lawn care provider will make sure all expectations are clear and keep you in the loop throughout the process.
The amount you pay for lawn care in Montgomery may change based on a number of factors. First is how big your lawn is. Next is the number and kind of services you need. Finally, there is the schedule on which you want services. In most cases, a subscription company is going to be less costly than a full-service company, but you will have to do the work yourself. We strongly suggest speaking with one or two of the companies from our list of the best lawn care service providers in Montgomery for a quote.
Your best fit will be based on what you think of the trade-off between work and money. If you do everything yourself, you won't need to pay for labor, but this option is the most work. If you employ a full-service lawn care company in Montgomery (such as TruGreen), they will handle the labor and logistics, but the up-front cost will be higher. Subscription companies fall somewhere in between.
Certain lawn care companies have specific specialties, while other companies offer more of a variety of services. To find out if a Montgomery lawn care company offers services outside of those often provided, it is best to contact them directly and ask.
When taking care of your Montgomery lawn, consistency is key. Certain services (such as mowing) you'll want done every one to two weeks. Some services — like pest and weed control — can be done less frequently. Things that might affect your lawn care schedule include the time of year, the condition of your lawn when you first begin services, and the weather in your part of Ohio.
Some services — such as mowing and edging — allow you to see results immediately. With services such as overseeding and weed control, you may need to wait a few days to a few weeks to see results. The amount of time it takes to see results will also vary based on the time of year and the weather in your part of Ohio.
