Investing in Lawn Maintenance: Why It is Worth It?

Many homeowners believe they can tackle lawn maintenance tasks on their own. They assume they’ll save money by doing so. However, proper lawn care requires experience, product knowledge, and an understanding of how grass grows. Otherwise, your beautiful lawn could develop preventable infestations or bald patches from overfertilization. Explore why professional maintenance services are a worthy investment to protect your property and its value. Want to boost the curb appeal of your Midlothian, Chesterfield, or Moseley home with professional lawn maintenance services? Call the EKG Lawn Services team today! What Does Lawn Maintenance Include? Most lawn services start with cleanup in the spring. Spring cleanups create a blank slate for a healthy lawn to flourish. Lawn technicians will remove any remaining dead leaves, branches, and other detritus that could hinder lush growth. Lawn care comes next. It establishes a conducive environment for grass growing in the warm seasons. Fertilization, aerating, and overseeding will diminish brown patches or bare spots. The fertilizer works with the soil’s pH to provide proper nourishment for established and new grass to thrive. Finally, lawn maintenance services work with cleanup and care for a well-manicured, healthy lawn. Once your lawn becomes established, maintenance technicians will perform the following services:

  • Mowing
  • Edging
  • Weed-eating
  • Periodic cleanup
These services build upon the initial care services for an inviting lawn. Consistent, professional maintenance services add value to your property throughout the growing season. Why Hire Lawn Technicians? Lawn technicians have the training, education, and experience to ensure your yard looks its best throughout the year. If you started with professional care services, then ongoing maintenance protects that investment with continuous monitoring that benefits the appearance and health of your lawn. Lawn technicians know how to handle awkward areas like sudden dips and rises without further damaging the lawn. Plus, their services come with various other benefits. Reduce Your Risk of Injury Over 70,000 people per year are hospitalized from lawn mower injuries alone. Some of these injuries involve severe burns, cuts, lacerations, or even result in death. This statistic does not include the numerous injuries that occur from weed eaters or a lack of protective gear. Tiny pebbles and debris can fly up from the equipment fairly regularly and cause eye damage as well as other health issues. DIY solutions typically involve disorganized lawn mowing practices alone. Thus, you risk injuries and safety issues attempting to care for your property if you are not an expert. But professional maintenance services prevent these issues. Conservation of Time and Energy Have you ever felt too exhausted to tackle maintenance chores after a long day at work? Do weekends fly by too quickly due in part to time-consuming lawn chores? Eliminate those struggles with professional services. Not only can lawn technicians make your lawn look better than ever before, but they also work quickly and efficiently due to their extensive experience. By getting professional service, you can enjoy more cold drinks in the shade and reduce your weekend chores. Your schedule will truly open up once you are free from lawn chores. Consistent Lawn Mowing You should mow your lawn weekly for optimal growth. However, most homeowners who mow their own lawns do so monthly or bi-monthly. This practice facilitates excess growth and uneven cuts. Additionally, your lawn may require hydration after mowing. The moisture helps the grass repair itself while making nutrients in the soil more readily available. Otherwise, your lawn could become dry and damaged. In addition, clumps of grass can retain heat and prevent proper airflow. Lawn technicians remove the clippings and make sure your grass receives proper hydration after mowing.
