You’ve got better things to do than spend Saturday pushing a mower around your property. Time with your kids, projects you’ve been putting off, or just sitting down for once.
That’s where professional lawn mowing makes sense. Your grass gets cut on schedule, edged clean, and trimmed around obstacles. No equipment to maintain, no gas to buy, no wondering if you’ll have time before the rain hits.
What you’re really getting is consistency. Same quality, same attention to detail, every time we show up. Your lawn stays healthy because it’s getting cut at the right height, on the right schedule, by people who know what they’re doing.
And when something looks off—bare patches, grub damage, drainage issues—you’ll know about it. We’re on your property every week during the season. We see problems early, before they turn into expensive fixes.
We started as a logging operation back in 1997. We’ve been serving Brayton and the surrounding area for over 25 years, and in 2022, Josh’s son joined as a partner. That’s the kind of business we are—family-run, locally rooted, built to last.
Josh is on almost every job. Not because we don’t trust our crew, but because that’s how we operate. You’re not getting a different team every week or a rotating cast of faces. You’re getting people who know your property and care about the result.
Brayton’s a small community. People know each other. We’re not trying to be the biggest lawn service in upstate New York. We’re trying to be the one you call back next season, and the one after that.
First, we come out and give you a free estimate. We’ll walk your property, measure the area, check for obstacles or tricky spots, and give you a straight number. No surprises later.
Once you’re ready to move forward, we’ll set up a schedule that works for you. Most properties in Brayton get mowed weekly during the growing season, but we adjust based on weather and grass growth. If it’s been dry and your lawn isn’t growing, we’re not showing up just to bill you.
When we mow, we’re doing more than just cutting grass. We edge along driveways and walkways, trim around trees and flower beds, and blow off any clippings from hard surfaces. Your property looks finished, not half-done.
After the job, we do a quick walk to make sure everything’s clean. If we see anything that needs attention—a low spot that’s holding water, a section that’s thinning out—we’ll let you know. You’re not getting a sales pitch. You’re getting information so you can make the call.

Every lawn mowing service in Brayton, NY includes the full cut, edge, trim, and cleanup. We’re using commercial-grade equipment that cuts cleaner and more evenly than residential mowers. That means healthier grass and better curb appeal.
Edging is part of the standard service. Clean lines along your driveway, sidewalks, and beds make a bigger visual difference than most people realize. It’s the detail that separates a mowed lawn from a maintained one.
Trimming happens around anything the mower can’t reach—fence lines, trees, garden beds, structures. We’re not leaving strips of tall grass behind. And when we’re done, we blow off all the clippings from paved areas so your driveway and walkways are clean.
In Brayton, the growing season runs roughly from late April through October, depending on the year. That’s when most properties need weekly mowing. We adjust frequency if we hit a dry spell or an unusually wet stretch. You’re paying for results, not just showing up.
If you’ve got a larger property or need land mowing for overgrown areas, we handle that too. Same equipment, same crew, just a different scope.
Most residential properties in Brayton fall somewhere in the $40 to $50 range per cut, but that depends on your lot size, terrain, and how much trimming is involved. A flat quarter-acre lot with easy access is going to cost less than a half-acre property with slopes, flower beds, and tight corners.
We give free estimates, and the price we quote is the price you pay. No hidden fees, no surprise charges if your grass grew an extra inch. If your property takes longer than expected the first time because it was overgrown, we’ll let you know upfront.
The best way to get an accurate number is to have us come out and look at your property. We’ll measure, check for obstacles, and give you a firm price on the spot. Then you can decide if it makes sense for your budget.
Most lawns in Brayton need mowing once a week during the peak growing season, which is typically late spring through early summer. That’s when grass is growing fastest and you’re fighting to keep up with it.
By mid-summer, especially if it’s dry, growth slows down. Some properties can stretch to every 10 days without looking overgrown. We’re not going to mow your lawn just to bill you if it doesn’t need it. We’ll adjust the schedule based on actual conditions, not a rigid calendar.
The goal is to never remove more than one-third of the grass blade at a time. That keeps your lawn healthy and prevents stress. If you wait too long between cuts, you end up scalping it or leaving clumps of clippings that smother the grass underneath. Weekly mowing during active growth keeps everything in balance.
We typically mulch the clippings back into the lawn unless you prefer bagging. Mulching returns nutrients to the soil, reduces the need for fertilizer, and keeps your grass healthier over time. As long as we’re mowing regularly, the clippings are short enough that they break down quickly and don’t leave clumps.
If your lawn gets away from you and the grass is really tall, we’ll bag it. Long clippings don’t break down fast enough and they’ll smother the grass underneath, leaving dead patches. Same thing if it’s wet and the grass is clumping—we’ll bag to keep your lawn looking clean.
Some customers prefer bagging for aesthetic reasons, and that’s fine. We can do either. Just let us know your preference when we give you the estimate, and we’ll factor that into the service.
We’ll reschedule for the next dry day. Mowing wet grass doesn’t do anyone any favors. It clumps, clogs the mower, doesn’t cut evenly, and tears the grass blades instead of cutting them cleanly. That stresses your lawn and opens it up to disease.
We keep an eye on the forecast and try to stay ahead of weather changes, but upstate New York weather doesn’t always cooperate. If we have to push your mow back a day or two, we’ll let you know as soon as we can.
During a really wet stretch, we might get a little behind. That’s just reality. But we’ll work through the schedule as quickly as conditions allow, and we’ll prioritize properties that are starting to look overgrown. You’re not going to get forgotten.
Yes. We’ve been doing excavation and land clearing since 1997, so larger properties and overgrown areas are well within our wheelhouse. If you’ve got acreage that needs regular maintenance or a section that got away from you, we’ve got the equipment to handle it.
Land mowing is different from regular lawn mowing. We’re typically dealing with taller grass, brush, uneven terrain, and sometimes obstacles like stumps or rocks. We use heavier equipment designed for that kind of work, and the process takes longer than a standard residential lawn.
Pricing depends on the size of the area, how overgrown it is, and what kind of terrain we’re working with. The best approach is to have us come out and take a look. We’ll walk the property with you, talk through what you’re trying to accomplish, and give you an honest assessment of what it’ll take.
We’re fully insured. That covers property damage and liability if something goes wrong. It’s not something we talk about much because we’re careful and it rarely comes up, but the coverage is there if it’s ever needed.
If we damage something—a sprinkler head, a landscape light, something like that—we’ll fix it or replace it. That’s just how we operate. We’re not looking to dodge responsibility or nickel-and-dime you over an accident.
Most damage happens because of hidden obstacles—a rock buried in tall grass, a sprinkler head that wasn’t marked, a low stump that’s hard to see. If you know where those things are, point them out when we do the estimate. It helps us avoid problems and keeps your property in good shape.
