Property Service Providers in Northeast Georgia

There are many many property service providers in North Georgia. Why choose us?

I’d say trust is the number one factor when allowing workers to come on your property. We have a section on our website  here that lets or clients tell about their experiences with us. We are not a big company so you don’t have to worry about crews coming out that we just hired the day before. We are small and easy to get in contact with. Some big lawn care companies are basically marketing machines that send managers out to smooth over every problem that arises with their work. We take care of our clients the right way each time we come out to service the property so we don’t have to “smooth things over” constantly.

Contact us today to handle all your property service needs.

Mowing Leaves

As Fall rolls in the leaves are slowly dropping. Many people mulch the leaves up with their mowers, including me. This could be a safety hazard on lawns that are new to you. Lawns we mow all season we get familiar with all the stumps and holes, etc. Leaves can cover stumps and holes which can lead to mower damage and possible injury. So take it a bit slower on leaf cleanup with mowers.

Property Improvements In Georgia Winter

When the grass growth slows down in November what do you need to do to your property? It is easy to think you can just sit back until Early spring of next year and do nothing. But that just puts you behind and leaves your property and the exterior of your home in a mess!

Below is a list of things I recommend for off season work on your property in Northeast Georgia. We offer most of these services if you need help. Contact us.

  1. Mulch up leaves… they hurt your lawn if too many of them just stay there.
  2. Keep gutters cleaned out.
  3. Put out rye grass which grows in cold weather. It helps keep lawn healthy while other grass types go dormant.
  4. Trim low hanging and unhealthy tree limbs.
  5. Trim hedges.
  6. Put out pinestraw after leaves have all fallen.
  7. Pressure wash house before putting up Christmas decorations.
  8. Aerate the lawn.
  9. De-thatch the lawn.
  10. Do a soil test to see what your lawn needs to be healthier.
  11. Sharpen lawn mower blades.
  12. Winterize mower gas.
  13. Treat your lawn to prevent fire ants in late Febuary or early March.

Fall Weather in Jackson County Georgia

With Fall comes leaves in Northeast Georgia. That means gutter clean outs and yard cleanups. These things can be time consuming as well as dangerous because of ladders. If you live in the Jackson County area we can help you with these tasks. Contact us today with any needs you have for lawn care in the slow growing season or sign up for next season’s mowing.

A couple tips on leaves. Use a tarp to move large piles of them. Try doing this with the help of your mower also. Wait until all the leaves fall before putting new pinestraw on beds. This way leaves don’t fall on top of the nice pinestraw. And you do not have to remove the leaves from the beds. They will decompose under the straw.

Video on Organic Lawn Fertilizers

The guy over at safelawns.org has a good video up that shows how to make organic fertilizer. There are several on the link above. The specific one about organic tea is very good. It shows the easy but time consuming process of making your own lawn fertilizer. You need a compost pile and small gadgets (optional) and a manual sprinkler (optional). You also need some free time. The organic movement in lawns is cool but make no mistake. It is not as easy as buying some fertilizer or paying a guy to fertilize for you.

Who Wants a Small Lawn Fertilizing Company?

Starting in early 2010 we will be offering a lawn fertilizing program her in Northeast Georgia. We currently do maintenance only but often get asked to do the fertilizing because the client is not happy with the “big company” that is doing it currently. We will offer the full service and a consulting service. We will come out and do a soil test and then give you a written game plan for those of you who would like to take care of your own fertilizing treatments. Email me with any questions

Derry to sharpen lawn regulation – Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

The linked story describes a small town dealing with overgrown lawns. The council people are crying over wasted manpower because city crews are mowing instead of “eating more doughnuts I guess”.  No one is forcing the city to do this work. They had the bright idea to enforce rules on private property owners in the first place. I know I would not want my neighbor’s property to be knee high in grass but that is not my property. I can put up a fence if i do not want to see it.

Many of the properties that are out of control are likely foreclosures or just people who don’t care about their property. So the idea of raising fines on the overgrown lawns will not work. If someone does not care they won’t pay. Nor will a person who will soon be out of the home anyway.
