How to choose a lawn care company

You may think it’s not really important what company you choose to perform your lawn care, but if you take great pride in your lawn and landscaping, then don’t you want a company that will take good care of it?

Your lawn accentuates your home, and if you choose a lawn care company that is unreliable, sloppy, or downright inexperienced, your lawn could suffer the consequences.

Take your time and choose a high-quality lawn maintenance company. You can then enjoy a productive and worry-free relationship for years as well as a gorgeous and healthy lawn.

Here is how to choose the right lawn care maintenance company:

Ask Friends and Check Reviews

Ask your neighbors and friends which lawn maintenance companies they use: if your friends really like their lawn company, they will gush about it.

Think of enquiring about:

  • the company’s responsiveness

  • the scope of their services

  • their overall reliability

Don’t forget to check out your friend’s lawn to make sure it is in good shape. If you don’t know anyone who uses a lawn service (or no one with a positive recommendation), check out referral sites like Yelp! and Angie’s List.

Ask for a Consultation

Before you sign a contract with a lawn care company, ask if they can send someone out to review your lawn.

Lawn maintenance companies do more than just mow your lawn every week. Many, like Nature’s Elite Lawn & Landscape can fertilize, aerate, weed, get rid of pests, prune, and more.

A good lawn care company will put together a full-year lawn and landscape plan tailored to your property, budget, and specific needs.

Focus on Communication and Reliability

During the consultation, go with your gut: does the company’s representative seem reliable? Is he or she communicating clearly with you about their services and recommendations? Do you have someone in the company to call if you have an issue or want to make changes to your plan?

Remember that you will probably work with this company for years, so it’s important that you feel comfortable with them from the beginning.
