Generally, there are three ways to do lawn care: doing everything yourself, using a subscription company, or employing one of the full-service lawn care companies in Sandy. While handling everything on your own may seem like the cheapest option, doing so leaves you open to expensive mistakes. You also will not have the expert guidance of a lawn care professional to help you.
Companies like Sunday Lawn Care are designed to assist with DIY lawn care. They offer subscription packages of lawn care equipment and chemicals that are sent to you as needed. The packages are designed based on your location in Utah and the time of year. These companies take the guesswork out of lawn care; however, you still have to apply everything yourself.
If your goal is to be completely hands-off, a full-service company like TruGreen will be the best avenue for you. This option may be the most expensive, but this is balanced by the benefits: they offer custom solutions to all your lawn care problems, and they take care of all the work.
There are many different services that the lawn care companies around Sandy can provide, including:
For any kind of need, there is a lawn care company in Sandy that can fill it. It is in your best interest to get in touch with one or two of the companies from the above list to ensure that you find the right one for you.
When choosing a lawn care services company, you want to make sure they are reliable. To be permitted to apply chemicals like pesticides to your lawn, a lawn care professional needs to be licensed through the Utah Department of Agriculture. If you are hiring for landscaping services like mowing and edging, check to see if a company meets all of Utah's landscaper licensing requirements. You can also see if a company is a member of an organization such as the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP). This is not a requirement, but NALP allows landscaping professionals to collaborate and share information regarding best practices. You can also read online reviews of the company and learn about their guarantees on their website. "NALP members have access to industry-leading tools and training to keep you on the cutting edge."
Next you will want to figure out which companies can perform the specific services you need. Many Sandy lawn care service companies offer both fixed plans and "a la carte" options, which allow you to pick and choose exactly which services you need.
After you've narrowed down your list to a small number of companies, you'll want to ask about an inspection and quote. With GPS technology, some companies can even give you an estimate based on how big your lawn is before they even visit your property. Your estimate will depend mainly on the size of your lawn and the specific services you need.
There are a handful of things for a Sandy homeowner to keep in mind before, during, and after lawn care treatments. Some of these are:
Selecting the right Sandy lawn care company will help you feel confident and well-informed regarding all of the work to be done. We recommend reaching out to one of the companies from our list of the best lawn care providers in Sandy to find the right professional for your needs.
The amount you pay for lawn care in Sandy varies based on certain factors. First is how big your lawn is. Next is the type and number of services you want. Finally, there is the frequency with which you want services. In most cases, a subscription company is less expensive than a full-service company, but you will have to do the work yourself. It is recommended that you contact at least one of the companies from our list of Sandy's best lawn care service providers to ask for a quote.
The amount of money you want to spend and how much work you plan to do will both have an effect on what type of lawn care is the best fit for you. Choosing a full-service Sandy lawn care company such as TruGreen will cost the most, but also will require you to perform the least manual labor. On the other hand, doing everything on your own will cost the least amount of money, but will require the most planning and hard work. Subscription companies are somewhere in between the other options.
No matter if you or a lawn care company are performing services, all pets should be kept inside during the process. If you use a subscription company, they should list pet safety information on their products. Should you hire a full-service company, they will let you know when it is safe to let your pets on your lawn after treatment.
Some services — like mowing and edging — allow you to see results as soon as they are performed. With services like fertilization and seeding, you may need to wait a few days to a few weeks to see results. The time needed for visible results will also be based on the weather in your part of Utah and the time of year.
If your Sandy lawn care company cancels for any reason, they will be in touch with you as soon as possible to reschedule. There are even some companies that have mobile apps where you can view and change your schedule.
