You’ve got enough on your plate. Between work, family, and everything else competing for your attention, spending your weekend behind a mower probably isn’t high on the list.
That’s where regular lawn mowing service makes sense. Your grass stays at the right height, your property looks maintained, and you’re not scrambling to fit it in between everything else. It’s handled.
For larger properties around Birchton, this becomes even more important. Land mowing isn’t the same as pushing a residential mower around a quarter-acre. It requires different equipment, more time, and someone who knows how to handle terrain that isn’t perfectly flat. We’ve been doing excavation and site work since 1997, so dealing with uneven ground, access challenges, and properties that need more than a basic trim is what we’re used to.
Emerson Excavating and Trucking started as a logging operation back in 1997. We transitioned to full-time excavation in 2020, and now we’re expanding our services to include grass mowing and land mowing for properties around Birchton, NY.
Josh is on almost every job. That’s not marketing talk—it’s how we operate. When you’re a family business, your name is attached to the work, so it matters that it’s done right.
We’re not trying to be the biggest lawn mowing service in the area. We’re trying to be the one you call back next season because the job was done without drama, the property looks good, and we showed up when we said we would.
It starts with a quick conversation. You tell us about your property—size, terrain, how often you want it mowed—and we give you a straightforward estimate. No runaround, no pressure.
Once we’re scheduled, we show up on the agreed day and handle the mowing. For standard residential properties, that means cutting the grass at the right height, keeping edges clean, and making sure it looks maintained. For larger land mowing jobs, we bring the equipment needed to handle acreage, uneven ground, and areas that need more than a typical lawn mower can manage.
After the job, your property looks the way it should. If you want ongoing service—weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly—we can set that up so it’s one less thing you have to think about. If it’s a one-time job, that works too.

When we handle your lawn mowing in Birchton, NY, you’re getting more than just a quick pass with a mower. We cut when conditions are right—not when the grass is soaking wet, which tears it up and leaves ruts. We use sharp blades, which makes a difference in how clean the cut is and how healthy your grass stays.
We also don’t scalp your lawn. Taking off more than a third of the grass height at once stresses it out, especially during the hotter months. Birchton sits in a climate zone where cool-season grasses do well, but they still need to be managed properly to stay thick and green.
For properties with more land, our approach shifts. Land mowing means dealing with terrain, clearing overgrown areas, and sometimes working around obstacles that wouldn’t exist on a typical residential lot. That’s where our background in excavation and site work helps—we’re used to problem-solving on properties that aren’t perfectly manicured.
It depends on the size of your property and how often you want it mowed. For a typical residential lot, you’re usually looking at somewhere between $40 and $50 per visit. Larger properties or land mowing jobs cost more because they take more time and require different equipment.
Weekly service generally runs less per visit than bi-weekly or monthly because we’re keeping up with it regularly instead of dealing with overgrowth. If your property has challenges—steep slopes, tight access, or areas that need brush clearing—that affects pricing too.
We give you a clear estimate upfront. No surprises, no adjustments after the fact unless you ask us to do something different than what we originally discussed.
For most residential properties in Birchton, NY, weekly mowing during the growing season keeps things looking good without letting the grass get out of hand. If your lawn grows slower or you’re okay with a slightly longer look, bi-weekly works.
Monthly mowing is usually too infrequent unless it’s a larger property where you’re more focused on keeping things manageable than maintaining a manicured appearance. The problem with waiting too long is that cutting off too much at once stresses the grass and can leave it looking patchy.
If you’re not sure what makes sense for your property, we can talk through it. How fast your grass grows, what the property is used for, and what look you’re going for all play into the right schedule.
We handle both. Residential lawn mowing is straightforward, but we also do land mowing for larger properties around Birchton, NY—the kind that need more than a push mower or a standard riding mower.
Our background is in excavation and site preparation, so we’re used to working on properties with terrain challenges, uneven ground, and areas that haven’t been maintained in a while. If you’ve got acreage that needs clearing or regular mowing, we’ve got the equipment and experience to handle it.
That also means if you need other work done—grading, drainage, driveway work—we can take care of it at the same time. It’s easier to work with one company that understands your whole property than coordinating between multiple contractors.
We do both. If you need a one-time cut because things got away from you or you’re prepping for an event, we can handle that. If you want ongoing lawn mowing service in Birchton, NY, we can set up a schedule that works for you—weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly.
Recurring service makes more sense for most people because it keeps the property maintained without having to think about it. You’re not scrambling to find someone last-minute when the grass is too high, and we’re already familiar with your property so the job goes smoother.
One-time jobs are fine too, though. We’re not going to push you into a contract if that’s not what you need right now.
In Birchton, NY, the main mowing season runs from late April through October, depending on the weather. Grass grows fastest in spring and early summer, so that’s when weekly mowing makes the most sense. Growth slows down in the heat of July and August, then picks back up in early fall.
By late October or early November, most lawns are done growing for the year and don’t need regular cuts anymore. If you’ve got a larger property with different types of vegetation, the timeline might be a little different—some areas might need attention earlier or later in the season.
We adjust mowing height based on the time of year too. Keeping grass a bit longer going into summer helps it handle heat stress better, and a final cut in fall at a shorter height helps prevent issues over winter.
It comes down to time and equipment. If you’ve got a small property, the right mower, and you don’t mind spending a few hours every week or two, doing it yourself is fine. But if your property is larger, the terrain is challenging, or you’d rather spend your time doing something else, hiring a professional lawn mowing service makes sense.
We’ve got commercial-grade equipment that handles jobs faster and cleaner than residential mowers. We also know how to cut properly—right height, sharp blades, mowing when conditions are good—so your grass stays healthier and looks better.
For land mowing around Birchton, NY, the difference is even bigger. Clearing acreage or maintaining larger properties isn’t something you can do with a standard lawn mower, and buying the equipment to do it yourself once or twice a year doesn’t make financial sense for most people.
