You get weekends back. No more dragging out equipment, dealing with dull blades, or wondering if you’re cutting too short for the season.
Your lawn stays thick and healthy because it’s getting cut at the right height, at the right frequency, with sharp commercial equipment. That means fewer weeds, better drought resistance, and grass that actually recovers after Saratoga’s harsh winters.
You also get consistency. Same crew, same attention to detail, same results—whether it’s May or September. That’s what professional lawn maintenance in Saratoga Springs should look like. No guessing. No gaps. Just a property you’re proud to pull into.
And when drainage issues pop up or grading needs adjustment, you’re already working with a team that owns excavators and knows how to fix the real problem—not just mow around it.
We’ve been operating in Saratoga County since 1997. What started as a logging operation became a full-time excavation and property maintenance company in 2020, and lawn maintenance was a natural addition for clients who wanted one reliable contractor for everything.
Josh is on nearly every job. His son joined as a partner in 2022. It’s a family operation, and that means you’re not getting a different crew every week or dealing with a call center when something needs attention.
You’re working with people who understand Saratoga Springs soil, seasonal timing, and what it takes to maintain a property through freeze-thaw cycles and summer heat. If your lawn needs more than mowing—like regrading for drainage or clearing overgrown areas—you’re already talking to the right team.
You reach out by text or call. We’ll schedule a time to walk your property, talk through what you need, and give you a clear price. No hidden fees. No surprises later.
Once you’re ready to move forward, we put you on a regular mowing schedule based on your lawn’s growth rate and the season. Spring means weekly cuts when growth is aggressive. Summer might shift to every 10 days depending on heat and rainfall. Fall tapers off as things slow down.
Every visit includes mowing at the correct height for your grass type—usually a mix of fine fescue, Kentucky bluegrass, and perennial ryegrass in Saratoga Springs. We also handle trimming around beds, edges, and obstacles, plus weed trimming service along fences and hardscape.
If you want shrub trimming services added in, we can handle that on the same schedule or separately depending on growth. Same goes for spring cleanup, aeration, or overseeding. Everything’s transparent. You know what’s happening and when.
And because we own excavation equipment, we can address underlying issues like poor drainage, uneven grading, or erosion that most grass cutting services in Saratoga Springs can’t touch.

Lawn maintenance in Saratoga Springs means more than running a mower. You’re dealing with soil that freezes deep, springs that swing from 30 to 70 degrees in a week, and summers that can go bone-dry or torrential depending on the year.
Our grass cutting service adjusts to those conditions. We’re not locked into a rigid schedule that ignores weather. If it’s been dry and growth has stalled, we’re not showing up just to scalp your lawn for a billing cycle. If it’s been wet and everything’s exploding, we’re there more often.
Weed trimming service covers edges, fence lines, and anywhere the mower can’t reach. Shrub trimming services keep foundation plantings in check and prevent overgrowth that blocks windows or crowds walkways. Both get done with commercial equipment that’s maintained weekly—not homeowner-grade stuff that bogs down or leaves ragged cuts.
For properties that need seasonal help, we offer spring cleanup to remove winter debris and prep beds, plus fall services like leaf management and overseeding to strengthen turf before dormancy. If your lawn has drainage problems, compaction, or grading issues, we can handle that too. You’re not calling a second contractor.
It depends on the season and how fast your grass is growing. In spring, you’re usually looking at weekly cuts—sometimes more if we get consistent rain and warm temps. Growth explodes in May and early June.
Summer slows things down, especially if it’s dry. You might stretch to every 10 days or two weeks depending on rainfall. If we hit a drought, your lawn goes dormant and doesn’t need cutting as often. Forcing a mow when there’s no growth just stresses the turf.
Fall picks back up as temperatures cool and we get more moisture. You’ll likely return to weekly or bi-weekly cuts through October. By November, growth stops and you’re done until spring. The key is flexibility. A good lawn maintenance schedule in Saratoga Springs adjusts to conditions, not a fixed calendar.
Most lawns here are a mix of Kentucky bluegrass, fine fescue, and perennial ryegrass. Those grasses do best when cut between 3 and 3.5 inches during the growing season. Taller grass shades the soil, keeps moisture in, and crowds out weeds.
In late fall, you can drop to around 2.5 inches for the final cut to reduce snow mold risk. But during summer, cutting too short stresses the grass and opens the door for crabgrass and other weeds to move in.
A lot of homeowners scalp their lawns thinking it means less frequent mowing. It doesn’t. It just weakens the turf and creates more problems. Professional lawn maintenance in Saratoga Springs keeps your grass at the right height for health, not convenience.
Yes. Spring cleanup usually happens in April once the ground thaws and you can see what winter left behind. We remove dead plant material, clear debris from beds, and rake out matted areas in the lawn. If your grass needs dethatching or aeration, that happens in spring too.
Fall leaf removal depends on your property and how many trees you have. Some clients want weekly cleanups through October and November. Others prefer one or two big pushes after most leaves have dropped. We can do either.
Leaves left sitting on your lawn through winter will smother the grass and create dead patches by spring. Mulching works if the layer is light, but thick coverage needs to be removed or composted. We handle that with commercial equipment—blowers, vacuums, and loaders if the volume is heavy.
Yes, and that’s where working with an excavation company makes a difference. Most lawn maintenance crews will mow around problems. We can actually fix them.
If you’ve got low spots that hold water, poor grading that channels runoff toward your foundation, or areas that stay soggy after rain, we can regrade and install drainage solutions. That might mean resloping the lawn, adding a French drain, or adjusting how water moves across your property.
We own the equipment to do it right—excavators, skid steers, and grading tools. Once the site work is done, we can reseed or lay sod so the repair blends in. You’re not patching the problem every spring. You’re solving it once and moving on.
Equipment, consistency, and knowledge. A homeowner mower or a kid’s side hustle setup isn’t built for weekly commercial use. Blades dull fast, cuts get uneven, and equipment breaks down mid-season.
Professional lawn maintenance in Saratoga Springs means commercial mowers with sharp blades, proper cutting height adjustment, and machines that are serviced regularly. You’re also getting a crew that understands grass types, seasonal timing, and how to handle different conditions without damaging your turf.
Consistency matters too. You’re not wondering if someone’s going to show up, or dealing with a different person every week who doesn’t know your property. You get the same crew, the same attention, and reliable results. That’s the difference between a service and a side job.
We can coordinate those services, but they’re typically handled separately from mowing since timing and application matter more than frequency. Weed control in Saratoga Springs usually means a pre-emergent application in early spring before crabgrass germinates, then spot treatments through the season as needed.
Fertilization depends on your soil and what your lawn actually needs. Most properties benefit from a spring feeding to jumpstart growth after winter, a summer application if the turf is stressed, and a fall feeding to strengthen roots before dormancy. Over-fertilizing causes more problems than it solves—thatch buildup, excessive growth, and nutrient runoff.
If you want a full program, we can walk your property, talk through what makes sense, and either handle it directly or bring in a licensed applicator if chemicals are involved. The goal is a healthy lawn that doesn’t need constant intervention, not dependency on treatments every month.
