When it comes to lawn care, if you don't want to go it alone you can go with either a subscription company or one of Shawnee's full-service lawn care companies. While doing everything yourself may seem like the cheapest option, doing so leaves the possibility of expensive mistakes open. You also will be working without expert guidance from a lawn care professional.
A company like Sunday Lawn Care can help take the guesswork out of the process. These kinds of companies will send you a regular subscription package of lawn care equipment and chemicals. They do the work of figuring out what your lawn needs and when, based on your location in Oklahoma and the time of year. However, you still need to handle the manual labor.
Prefer to have someone else take care of everything? A full-service company like TruGreen might be the best fit for you. A full-service lawn care company may be the most expensive option, but they will take care of not just the decision-making but also the manual labor.
There are many different services that the lawn care companies around Shawnee can provide, including:
No matter what type of services you need, there is a Shawnee lawn care company for the job. We recommend looking into one or more of the companies listed above to discover which one is best for you.
It is probably important to you to choose a lawn care services company that is reliable. If you are going to have chemicals like pesticides applied to your lawn, your technician must be licensed through the Oklahoma 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 Oklahoma. Some companies are also members of organizations 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 browse their website to learn about the guarantees they offer, and read online reviews. "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."
Next, you'll need to determine which companies can perform the specific services that you need. Many Shawnee lawn care service companies offer both fixed plans and "a la carte" options, where you can pick and choose only the services that you need.
After this, you will want to get an inspection and quote. Even without visiting 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.
There are a handful of things for a Shawnee homeowner to keep in mind before, during, and after lawn care treatments. Some of those things are:
By choosing a provider from our list of Shawnee's best lawn care companies, you'll be in the hands of experts. Your Shawnee lawn care technician can clarify all expectations and keep you in the know throughout the process.
The cost of lawn care in Shawnee will vary based on a handful of factors. One is the size of your lawn, and another is what type of services you need. The cost will also vary based on how often your lawn needs servicing. Subscription companies will be cheaper up front, but you will have to do the manual labor yourself. It is strongly suggested that you contact one or two of the companies from our list of Shawnee's top lawn service providers to get an estimate.
The best plan for you will depend on your views on the trade-off between work and money. If you do everything yourself, you don't have to pay for labor, but this option is the most work. If you choose to go with one of Shawnee's full-service lawn care companies (such as TruGreen), they will handle all the labor and logistics, but you will pay more money. Subscription companies are generally somewhere in between.
Some lawn care companies have specific specialties, while others provide a variety of services. To learn if a lawn care company in Shawnee offers services outside of the ones normally provided, it is best to ask them directly.
When it comes to taking care of your Shawnee lawn, consistency is key. Certain services (such as mowing) you'll want to do every one to two weeks. Some services — like pest and weed control — can be done less frequently. Some possible factors that could influence your lawn care schedule are the condition of your lawn when you first begin services, the time of year, and the weather in your part of Oklahoma.
Whether you or a lawn care professional are performing services, all pets should be kept inside during the process. A subscription company should provide pet safety information with their products. A full-service company will inform you when it is safe to let your pets on your lawn after treatment.
Many lawn care providers have a list of ingredients on their website. Some (such as Sunday Lawn Care) state that they use natural ingredients in their products. If you cannot find a list of ingredients on a company's website, you can contact them and ask.
