Lawn Care
Standard visits include mowing at the correct height for the season, string trimming around beds, fences, and obstacles, crisp edging along walkways and driveways, and blowing all clippings off hard surfaces. Seasonal add-ons include spring cleanup, aeration, overseeding, and fall preparation.
Consistent cutting at the right height is most of what separates a thick lawn from a patchy one. Cutting too short stresses the grass, invites weeds, and burns the lawn in July heat. A set schedule with a crew that knows your property means the lawn is simply always done, and done at the height it should be.
What’s Included
Weekly or bi-weekly mowing
Precision edge trimming
Seasonal height adjustment
Post-mow debris cleanup
Lawn health visual inspection
Expert Tips & Professional Advice
- GTA lawns are mostly Kentucky bluegrass and fescue blends growing in heavy clay soil, which compacts easily and benefits from fall aeration.
- Our route days run through North York, Vaughan, Richmond Hill, and Markham, and recurring customers on route days get the best rates.
- Many pair the last fall cut with leaf cleaning to close out the season in one visit.
- Pricing depends on the size of your lot and the schedule you choose, so we quote each property individually. Weekly and biweekly schedules run April through November.
“One of the most common mistakes I see is people cutting their grass too short, especially in spring and summer. Leaving it just a little longer encourages deeper roots and protects it from heat stress. If you’re not adjusting your blade height with the seasons, you’re missing a key part of lawn care.”

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Do you take the clippings?
We mulch clippings back in by default because they feed the lawn. Bagging and removal are available on request.
How often should GTA lawns be mowed?
Weekly from May through June when growth peaks, and biweekly in the July heat and early fall. We adjust your schedule with the season automatically.
What height do you cut at?
3 to 3.5 inches in summer to shade roots and hold moisture, slightly lower for the final fall cuts. Height is the single biggest factor in lawn health.
When does lawn care season start in the GTA?
Lawn care runs from spring through fall, typically April or May once the ground firms up, into October as growth slows. We plan the first and last visits around the weather each year, since GTA spring and fall timing shifts from one season to the next.
Can you fix a thin, patchy lawn?
Yes. Fall aeration plus overseeding is the highest-impact fix for compacted GTA clay soil, and September is the ideal month to do it.
