Proper mowing is critical for a lawn to thrive. The three most important basics of lawn mowing include:
When we mow your lawn, we are careful not to remove more than one-third of the blade height in a single mowing session. Mowing sessions in Central Iowa areas like Des Moines, West Des Moines, and Ankeny start in spring, around late March or early April, and go through October on a weekly or bi-weekly basis, depending on weather conditions.
Mowing services include mowing, string trimming, edging, and blowing around your entire property. A typical mowing session looks like the following:
For one-time maintenance services for a distressed or overgrown property, we have tougher equipment to break through tall grasses, low areas, wooded areas, and more.
A common and very important task for keeping your landscape plants healthy is trimming and pruning. When trimming, we're controlling the shape and size, while pruning removes branches selectively for health reasons.
Trimming of your shrubs, hedges, and small trees should be done a few times per year for low maintenance landscapes, but as much as once per month for more manicured properties. Pruning, on the other hand, should only be done twice per year and the timing depends on the type of plant being pruned.
Mulch offers both beneficial and aesthetically pleasing attributes to your landscaping beds. These ground coverings protect your plants, bushes, shrubs, and small trees, and help to retain moisture while preventing soil erosion.
Some of the most popular mulch installation options in Des Moines, West Des Moines, Ankeny, and other areas of Central Iowa include:
Did you know utilizing organic mulch contributes to the overall soil and plant health by providing extra nutrients? Additionally, mulch ground coverings help form a barrier that acts as a form of weed control.
