Today's Homeowner looks at dozens of datapoints on lawn companies to come up with our data-driven rankings. It's not possible for a company to pay for preferential treatment in our rankings. We look at the following key factors in determining who should top our list:
Calculate how long it takes to mow your lawn, and estimate how much it will cost hire mowers in Castro Valley, CA.
Estimates will vary greatly based on size, shape, terrain, and other factors of your lawn. Most lawn care companies give discounts for more frequent mowing, and may offer bigger discounts if you commit to an annual contract.
The price of lawn care will depend on several factors. One is how large your lawn is, and another is the service(s) you want. The price will also vary based on how frequently your lawn needs servicing. In Castro Valley, homeowners normally pay around $197 for lawn care. We recommend that you contact a few local companies for an estimate.
According to our ranking criteria, Castro Valley's top lawn care providers are Garden Center at The Home Depot, Garden Center at The Home Depot, and Watersavers Turf.
The plan that fits best for you will be based on what you think of the trade-off between DIY work and the expense of hiring a pro. If you do everything yourself, you don't need to pay for labor, but this option requires the most effort on your part. If you choose a full-service lawn care company, they'll take care of the logistics and labor, but you will need to invest more money up front. Subscription companies are generally somewhere in between. The company provides the materials, and you do the application.
During the hottest months of the year, think about doing seeding, overseeding, and soil care. During periods of cooler weather, you might need to think about winterization. Throughout the year, you will want to do weed and pest control, aeration and fertilization, and tree and shrub care as needed. The benefits of hiring a lawn care company include helping you choose the schedule that makes the most sense for your lawn.
Whether you or a lawn care technician are performing services, all children and pets should be kept inside during the process. If you use a subscription company, they should list safety information on their products. A full-service company will let you know when it's safe for children and pets to be on your lawn following treatment.
Many lawn care providers have a list of ingredients on their websites. If you can't find this information on a company's website, reach out to them directly and ask.
