You’re spending hours every week setting up equipment, mowing, edging, cleaning up. Then doing it all over again when the grass grows back. That’s time you could be spending on literally anything else.
Professional lawn mowing service means you get consistent results without touching a mower. Your grass gets cut at the right height for the season, with sharp blades that don’t tear or stress the lawn. You get a crew that shows up on schedule, handles the work, and moves on without needing your supervision.
The outcome isn’t just a mowed lawn. It’s predictable maintenance you can count on, equipment you don’t have to store or fix, and weekends that actually feel like weekends. Your property stays maintained whether you’re home or traveling, and you’re not scrambling to catch up after a busy stretch at work.
We’ve been serving Cambridge, NY and the surrounding Washington County area since 1997. What started as a logging operation evolved into full-service excavation and property maintenance, with Josh’s son joining as a partner in 2022.
Josh is on-site for almost every job. That’s not a marketing line—it’s how we run. When you hire a family operation, you get the owner’s attention, not a rotating crew that doesn’t know your property.
We’ve built our reputation throughout Saratoga, Washington, and Warren Counties by finishing what we start and treating properties like they’re our own. Cambridge homeowners deal with rocky terrain, variable soil conditions, and weather that doesn’t always cooperate. We adjust our approach based on what your property actually needs, not what’s easiest for us.
You reach out by text or call—whichever works for you. We’ll talk about your property size, how often you want service, and any specific concerns like uneven terrain or areas that need extra attention.
We’ll give you a clear estimate with no hidden fees. If it works for you, we’ll get you on the schedule. Most Cambridge properties need weekly mowing during peak growing season and can stretch to every 10-14 days as things slow down in late summer.
When we show up, we handle everything. Mowing, edging, cleanup. We cut at the right height for your grass type and the current season—usually around 3 to 3.5 inches, which keeps roots strong and helps the lawn hold moisture during dry stretches. If we spot early signs of disease, pest damage, or drought stress, we’ll let you know so you can address it before it becomes expensive.
You get consistent service on a predictable schedule. No chasing down contractors. No wondering if someone’s going to show up. Just reliable lawn mowing service that keeps your property looking the way it should.

Professional equipment that’s maintained and ready to work. That means fewer delays, cleaner cuts, and faster completion. We’re fully licensed and insured, so your property is protected if something unexpected happens.
In Cambridge, NY, lawn mowing costs typically run between $35 and $85 per visit depending on property size and complexity. Larger lots, steep grades, or properties with obstacles take more time and equipment. We price based on what your specific property requires, not a one-size-fits-all rate.
You also get the benefit of working with a crew that knows upstate New York ground conditions. Rocky soil, uneven terrain, areas that hold water after heavy rain—we’ve seen it all and know how to work around it. We vary mowing patterns to prevent soil compaction and keep your lawn resilient through the growing season.
Cambridge homeowners care about curb appeal and property value. A well-maintained lawn is the foundation of that. We’re not just cutting grass—we’re helping you maintain an asset that reflects well on your home and gives you a space you actually enjoy being in.
During peak growing season—late spring through early summer—most Cambridge properties need weekly mowing. Grass grows fast when temperatures are moderate and rainfall is consistent. Letting it go longer than a week means you’re cutting off more than one-third of the blade height, which stresses the grass and leaves it vulnerable to disease.
As summer heats up and growth slows, you can usually stretch to every 10 to 14 days. By late summer and early fall, every two weeks is often enough unless you get a stretch of rain that kicks growth back into high gear.
The key is consistency. Skipping cuts or waiting too long between mows forces the crew to scalp the lawn to get it back under control, which exposes soil, encourages weeds, and dries everything out faster. Regular mowing at the right intervals keeps your lawn healthier and actually makes each visit faster and less expensive.
Most lawns in Cambridge do best at 3 to 3.5 inches. That height keeps grass blades long enough to shade the soil, which reduces water evaporation and discourages weed seeds from germinating. Taller grass also develops deeper roots, which helps it survive dry spells without turning brown.
Cutting too short is one of the most common mistakes homeowners make. When you scalp the lawn down to an inch or two, you’re exposing soil to direct sunlight and forcing the grass to use energy rebuilding blades instead of strengthening roots. That makes your lawn weaker and more susceptible to heat stress, pests, and disease.
We adjust height slightly based on the season. In spring, we might go a bit shorter to encourage thicker growth. In summer, we keep it on the taller end to help the lawn conserve moisture. The goal is always to cut no more than one-third of the blade height in a single mow, which keeps the grass healthy and looking good.
Yes. Cambridge properties often come with uneven terrain, slopes, and rocky soil—that’s just the reality of upstate New York. We’ve been working in Washington County since 1997, so we know how to handle ground that doesn’t cooperate.
Steep slopes require different equipment and technique than flat lawns. We use mowers that can handle the grade safely and adjust our approach to avoid scalping high spots or missing low areas. Rocky terrain means we’re more careful about blade damage and adjust cutting patterns to work around obstacles without tearing up the lawn.
If your property has areas that are difficult or dangerous to mow—extremely steep banks, large rock outcroppings, or sections that hold standing water—we’ll walk the property with you during the estimate and talk through options. Sometimes that means trimming instead of mowing in certain spots, or recommending ground cover alternatives for areas that just don’t support healthy grass.
We’ll reschedule for the next available day when conditions are right. Mowing wet grass causes more problems than it solves—it clumps, clogs equipment, creates ruts in soft soil, and doesn’t cut cleanly. Wet grass also spreads disease more easily because torn blade edges are entry points for fungus and bacteria.
Cambridge gets its share of rain, especially in spring and early summer. When weather disrupts the schedule, we move as quickly as possible to get caught up without compromising quality. That might mean running crews on a Saturday or extending hours to fit everyone in before grass gets too tall.
If you have a specific event coming up—a graduation party, family gathering, or open house—let us know in advance. We’ll prioritize getting your property done before the date, even if it means adjusting the route or squeezing in an extra visit. Communication goes both ways, and we’d rather know about your timeline than have you stressed about the lawn the day before guests arrive.
Yes, and we do. When you’re walking a property every week or two, you notice changes that homeowners miss. Brown patches that weren’t there last visit. Sections where grass is thinning. Areas that suddenly have more weeds or seem to be growing differently than the rest of the lawn.
We’re not lawn care specialists who treat diseases or apply fertilizers—that’s a different service—but we can tell you when something looks off. Early detection matters because most lawn problems are cheaper and easier to fix when you catch them right away. A small patch of grubs is manageable. Letting them spread across half your lawn is expensive.
If we see something that concerns us, we’ll mention it. You can decide whether to bring in a lawn care company, adjust your watering schedule, or just keep an eye on it. Either way, you’re not finding out about a problem three weeks after it started when it’s already done serious damage.
Time is the biggest reason. Mowing takes hours every week when you factor in getting the equipment out, doing the actual work, edging, blowing off driveways and walkways, and putting everything away. If you’ve got a large property or obstacles to work around, it takes even longer.
Professional service also means better equipment that’s maintained and ready to work. Your mower breaks down, you’re either fixing it yourself or paying someone else to do it. Our equipment stays in working order because that’s how we make a living. Sharp blades, reliable engines, and machines that are designed for commercial use.
You also get consistency. We show up on schedule whether you’re home, traveling, or busy with work. Your lawn doesn’t get neglected because you had a hectic month. And if you’re building a new home or managing a property in Cambridge, you’ve already got enough on your plate without adding weekly mowing to the list.
