KNOW THE FACTS

Many homeowners fear that leaving grass clippings on the lawn may cause thatch. However thatch buildup is due mostly to improper watering and fertilization. Thatch is made of roots, dead leaf sheaths and rhizomes that decompose slowly. Grass clippings on the other hand decompose rapidly and make your lawn healthier,stronger and more durable

SEASON

Weekly mowing starts April and ends in November. Your property will be serviced every week between and including these months.

SCHEDULING

You will be assigned a service day. Your service day depends on our routing. As routing changes, your service day could be changed. At times we do work after 5 PM.

RAIN DAYS

To stay on schedule, we do mow in moderate rain. We take caution so our mowers will not cause ruts in moderately wet conditions. If you think your lawn is too wet to be serviced, let us know and it will be skipped until the next week. We do not recommend skipping a week in the middle of the growing season.

GATES

Locked gates are fine, but we must have the combination before the service date. If the back yard is inaccessible due to not having the combination we can not service it, but still have to charge the full rate. We are extremely mindful of keeping gates closed and relocking gates. Eco-Lawn Systems request that people and pets remain inside when cutting your lawn.

BI-WEEKLY MOWING

Bi-Weekly mowing schedules are available at $15 per trip more than weekly, due to the extra work involved as well as the scheduling conflicts they create. For most lawns we do not recommend bi-weekly service as it's healthy to remove only 1/3 of the grass blade tip per mow. On most Bi-weekly lawns we need to take off far more than this for it to even look cut. If you take the time and money to water and fertilize your lawn, then it's worth it to cut it Weekly as well. Bi-Weekly lawns that exceed normal a normal growth rate determined by us will be instructed to go weekly.

THIRD PARTY FERTILIZING COMPANIES

If you use a third party fertilizing company, we ask that you request they do not come on the day of our service and that they switch to a timed-release fertilizer if they are not already using one. Besides keeping your lawn greener in-between applications, the timed-release fertilizer does not have the ‘super surge’ in growth 7-10 days following application that the cheaper fertilizers give. This surge can be hard to manage, even on a 7-day cutting basis, resulting in a poorer cut.
