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 Central, LA.
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 amount you will pay for lawn care will vary based on certain factors. One is how big your lawn is, and another is the service(s) you want. The cost will also vary based on how often your lawn needs servicing. In Central, homeowners generally pay about $143 for lawn care. We recommend that you get in touch with one or more local companies for an estimate.
Per our ranking criteria, the top lawn care providers in Central are Legends Landscape of Louisiana, ZDR Baton Rouge Landscape Pros, and ZION LAWN & LANDSCAPE LLC.
The type of lawn care that will work best for you depends on the amount of money you want to spend and how much work you want to do. Going with a full-service lawn care company will be pricier, but will require you to perform the least manual labor. On the other end of the spectrum, handling everything yourself will eliminate the need to pay for labor, but will require the most planning and hard work. Subscription companies fall between these two options — the company provides the materials, and you do the application.
Year-round, you should be completing aeration and fertilization, tree and shrub care, and weed and pest control as needed. During the summer, you should think about tackling soil care and seeding/overseeding. In the cooler months, you might want to winterize your lawn. The perks of using a lawn care company include receiving expert help to find the optimal schedule for your lawn.
If your lawn care provider needs to cancel, they will reach out to you to reschedule as soon as possible. Companies may even have mobile apps where you are able to see and edit your schedule.
When caring for your lawn, consistency is key. Some services (like mowing) are best done every one or two weeks. Some services — like pest and weed control — can be done less often. Factors that could influence your lawn care schedule include the time of year, the weather in your part of Louisiana, and the condition of your lawn when you first begin services.
