Sometimes, you might want to handle lawn care yourself. For those times when you want any assistance, you can use the services of a subscription company, or pay one of West Falls Church's full-service lawn care companies. If you go the DIY route, you may save money initially. However, you miss out on expert guidance and advice that can help you prevent expensive mistakes.
Some companies, such as Sunday Lawn Care, offer assistance with DIY lawn care. In most cases, this is in the form of subscription packages that provide you with all the necessary chemicals and equipment for your lawn, based on the time of year and your location in Virginia. These companies offer a lot of guidance with lawn care, but you will still be doing all of the manual work.
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 might be the highest-cost option, but they handle not just the decision-making but also the manual labor.
There are a variety of services that you might use a West Falls Church lawn care company for, such as:
Regardless of what your needs are, there is a West Falls Church lawn care company that is able to meet them. It is recommended that you contact one or two of the companies on our list above to find just the right one for you.
It is important to choose a lawn care services company that is reliable. A technician who is going to apply chemicals like pesticides to your lawn must be licensed through the Virginia Department of Agriculture. If they're going to be helping with landscaping services (such as edging), they'll have to meet all of the landscaper licensing requirements for Virginia. 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. Last but not least, you can read through a company's website to see what kind of guarantees they offer, and read online reviews. "[Our mission is to] advocate for lawn and landscape industry growth and the benefits we provide to our communities."
Next, you'll want to figure out which companies in West Falls Church offer the specific services you need. Many companies offer both plans and "a la carte" options which enable you to pick and choose from a list of services.
Once you've chosen a company or two, you'll want to contact them to get an inspection and quote. With GPS technology, some companies are able to make an estimate based on how big your lawn is before they even visit your property. Your estimate will be based mainly on the specific services you need and the size of your lawn.
There are a handful of things for a West Falls Church homeowner to keep in mind before, during, and after lawn care services. Some of those things are:
When you choose a provider from our list of the best lawn care companies in West Falls Church, you'll be in the hands of experts. Your West Falls Church lawn care technician will make sure all expectations are clear and keep you well-informed throughout the process.
The price of lawn care in West Falls Church may vary widely based on a number of factors. First is how big your lawn is. Next is the number and type of services you want. Lastly, there is how often you want services. Generally, a subscription company will be cheaper than a full-service company, but using a subscription company means that you need to do the manual labor yourself. We recommend contacting one or more of the companies from our list of the best lawn care service providers in West Falls Church to ask for a quote.
The amount of money that you want to spend and the amount of work you plan to do will both affect the lawn care model that is the best fit for you. Choosing one of West Falls Church's full-service lawn care companies such as TruGreen will be the priciest, but will also require the least manual labor on your part. On the other end of the spectrum, doing everything on your own will cost the least amount of money, but will require the most hard work and planning. Subscription companies fall in between the other options.
Some lawn care companies specialize in specific services, while others provide a wide variety of services. To learn if a lawn care company in West Falls Church offers services outside of the ones typically provided, it is best to speak with them directly and ask.
How often your West Falls Church lawn needs care will depend on things like the condition your lawn is in at the start of services, the weather in your part of Virginia, and the time of year. There are some services (such as mowing) that should be done every one to two weeks, and other services (like pest and weed control) can be done less often. Overall, consistency is key when it comes to lawn care.
If there is inclement weather, it may affect which services are appropriate for a certain day, and your servicer may need to cancel. When this happens, they will contact you to reschedule as soon as possible. Some lawn care companies in West Falls Church also have mobile apps where you can see and change your schedule.
Using a lawn services company — either full-service or subscription — can help ensure that the job is done right, and will save you money in the future. When you pay for a lawn care company, you also reap the benefits of their professional expertise. These experts can help you determine 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 typically backed by a guarantee.
