Yard work, job by job

Lawn Care & Mowing

The backbone service: mow, edge, string-trim, and blow — same crew, same day, every week or two. Good crews run routes, which is why recurring service costs less per visit than a one-off cut and why your yard never gets the chance to slide.

Typical 2026 range: $40–$70 per visit for most suburban lots; small lots from $30, half-acre-plus from $80. Fertilization and weed programs $50–$90 per application.

Best suited for

• Anyone done spending Saturday mornings behind a mower
• Rental and vacant properties that must stay presentable
• HOA neighborhoods where letters arrive faster than grass grows

Worth knowing

• Recurring beats per-cut on price and on lawn health — consistency is the actual fertilizer
• The first visit often pairs with a cleanup to set the baseline

Tree Trimming & Removal

The job where insured matters most. Crown thinning, roofline and utility clearance, storm-damage response, and full removals with stump grinding — done with ropes, rigging, and people who climb for a living.

Typical 2026 range: trimming $300–$1,200 per tree by size and access; removals $500–$2,500+; stump grinding $100–$400.

Best suited for

• Branches over the roof, the driveway, or the neighbor's fence
• Post-storm hangers and splits — before they finish falling
• Any tree that's died standing

Worth knowing

• This is the yard job never to bargain-hunt: an uninsured tree guy is your homeowner's claim waiting to happen
• Cities often require permits for protected species — good crews know which
