Best Lawn Care in Kyle, TX

How much does lawn care service cost?

Basic mowing for a typical quarter-acre lawn runs $30—$60 per visit. Full-service lawn care programs (mowing, fertilization, weed control, aeration) range from $100—$300/month depending on lot size and services included. Annual landscaping contracts provide volume discounts.

How often should I have my lawn mowed?

During peak growing season (spring and summer), most lawns benefit from weekly mowing. Growth slows in summer heat and fall, allowing bi-weekly service. Never remove more than one-third of the grass blade at a time — it stresses the lawn.

When should I fertilize my lawn?

Cool-season grasses (fescue, bluegrass, ryegrass) should be fertilized in fall and early spring. Warm-season grasses (Bermuda, St. Augustine, zoysia) are fertilized in late spring through summer. Soil testing ($20—$30 at a garden center) takes the guesswork out of fertilizer selection.

How do I get rid of weeds in my lawn?

Pre-emergent herbicides applied in early spring prevent weed seeds from germinating. Post-emergent selective herbicides target existing broadleaf weeds without harming grass. The most weed-resistant lawn is a healthy, dense turf — proper mowing height, fertilization, and overseeding are the foundation.

Should I water my lawn daily?

Overwatering is one of the most common lawn care mistakes. Most lawns need 1—1.5 inches of water per week (from rain or irrigation). Deep, infrequent watering (2—3 times per week) promotes deeper root growth compared to light daily watering.
