You’re not looking for someone to just mow grass. You need your property to look sharp without eating up every Saturday from April through November.
That means consistent grass cutting service on a schedule that works around weather, not just a calendar. It means shrub trimming services that keep your landscaping looking intentional, not overgrown or hacked up. And it means weed trimming service that gets the edges, around the beds, and along the driveway—the details that separate a maintained lawn from one that just got mowed.
Most homeowners in Ash Grove spend 70 hours a year on lawn upkeep. That’s nearly two full work weeks you could spend doing literally anything else. Professional lawn maintenance in Ash Grove, NY takes that off your plate while keeping your grass healthy, your beds clean, and your curb appeal where it should be.
We’ve been operating in Saratoga, Warren, and Washington Counties since 1997. We started in logging, moved into full-time excavation in 2020, and added lawn maintenance because we kept hearing the same frustration: people couldn’t find reliable local crews who showed up on time and did the work right.
Josh is on almost every job. His son joined as a partner in 2022. We’re not a franchise or a call center operation—we’re a family business that lives and works in the same area you do.
If you’re building a new home in Ash Grove, we’re already handling your site prep and excavation. Now we can keep your lawn maintained once you’re moved in. One company, start to finish.
We start with a walkthrough of your property. You tell us what you’re dealing with—overgrown beds, uneven grass height, weeds taking over the edges—and we map out a maintenance plan that makes sense for your yard and your schedule.
From there, we handle weekly or biweekly mowing from May through October, depending on growth and weather. Grass gets cut to the right height—between 2.5 and 3.5 inches—so it stays healthy and doesn’t invite crabgrass or disease. We’re not scalping your lawn to save time.
Shrub trimming happens as needed to keep things tidy without butchering your landscaping. Weed trimming gets the spots the mower can’t reach. Bed cleanup keeps mulch fresh and edges defined. If your lawn needs aeration or fertilization, we’ll let you know—but we’re not upselling services you don’t need just to pad the invoice.
You’ll know when we’re coming, and you’ll know what we’re doing. No surprises, no excuses.

Lawn maintenance in Ash Grove, NY isn’t one-size-fits-all. Your property might need weekly mowing during peak growing season and biweekly cuts when things slow down in late summer. We adjust based on actual conditions, not a rigid schedule that ignores reality.
Grass cutting service covers mowing, bagging or mulching clippings depending on your preference, and trimming around obstacles. Shrub trimming services keep your bushes, hedges, and ornamental plants looking intentional without the overgrown or hacked-back look that comes from improper cuts. Weed trimming service handles edges along driveways, walkways, and flower beds where the mower can’t reach.
In New York, lawns need about an inch of water per week. If we’re in a dry stretch, we’ll mention it. If your soil is compacted—which affects about half of residential yards—we’ll recommend aeration before it becomes a bigger problem. Cornell University recommends watering between 4 and 8 a.m. so grass dries in morning sun, reducing disease risk.
We’re also aware of the NYS Nutrient Runoff Law, which means no fertilizing between December 1 and April 1. If your lawn needs feeding, we’ll time it right and use the correct application so you’re not wasting product or violating local regulations.
Most homeowners in New York pay between $40 and $50 per mowing session, with the state average sitting around $44. If you’re looking at full-service lawn maintenance in Ash Grove, NY—mowing, trimming, edging, and seasonal bed cleanup—you’re typically looking at $300 to $400 per month during the growing season.
That price shifts depending on lot size, how much trimming and edging is involved, and whether you need extras like aeration, fertilization, or shrub trimming services. A quarter-acre lot with minimal landscaping costs less than a half-acre property with multiple flower beds and mature shrubs.
We give you a clear estimate upfront based on your actual property, not a generic quote pulled from a website. You’ll know what you’re paying before we start, and there won’t be surprise charges tacked on later.
Weekly mowing works for most properties from May through early July when grass is growing fast. After that, you can usually stretch it to every 10 days or biweekly, depending on rainfall and temperature.
The goal is to never cut more than one-third of the grass height at once. Cutting too much stresses the lawn, opens it up to weeds, and makes it more susceptible to disease—about 20% more vulnerable if you’re using dull blades or scalping the turf.
We adjust the schedule based on what’s actually happening with your lawn, not a fixed calendar. If we get a wet week and everything shoots up, we’ll stay on top of it. If it’s dry and growth slows down, we’re not going to mow just to bill you.
Lawn maintenance in Ash Grove, NY typically runs from April through mid-November. That’s when grass is actively growing and properties need regular mowing, trimming, and upkeep.
Once the ground freezes and grass goes dormant, there’s not much to maintain. We’ll handle final fall cleanups—leaf removal, bed prep, last mow of the season—but weekly service stops until spring.
If you’re looking for winter property maintenance, we’re expanding into commercial and industrial snow removal this season. For residential clients, we can talk through what makes sense for your driveway and walkways once the snow starts.
Lawn maintenance is the ongoing upkeep—mowing, trimming, edging, weed control, fertilization, aeration. It’s what keeps your existing lawn and landscaping looking clean and healthy week to week.
Landscaping is the design and installation work—planting new beds, installing hardscaping, grading for drainage, building retaining walls. That’s where our excavation background comes in handy, especially if you’re working with a new build in Ash Grove and need both site prep and ongoing lawn care.
We handle both. If you’re moving into a new home and need the property graded, beds installed, and a maintenance plan in place, we can take it from dirt to done. If you’ve already got established landscaping and just need someone reliable to maintain it, we do that too.
If your lawn feels hard underfoot, water pools after rain, or grass is thinning out in high-traffic areas, you’re probably dealing with soil compaction. About half of residential yards have compaction issues, and aeration is the fix—it opens up the soil so air, water, and nutrients can reach the roots.
Fertilization depends on soil health and grass type. In New York, you can’t fertilize between December 1 and April 1 due to nutrient runoff laws, so timing matters. If your lawn is pale, growing slowly, or struggling to recover from foot traffic, it likely needs feeding.
We’ll tell you if we see signs that aeration or fertilization would help. We’re not going to sell you services your lawn doesn’t need, but we’re also not going to ignore problems that’ll get worse if you wait.
You’re spending about 70 hours a year maintaining your lawn if you’re doing it yourself. That’s time you’re not getting back, and it’s time you could spend with family, on projects you actually enjoy, or just not working on a Saturday.
There’s also the equipment factor. Professional-grade mowers, trimmers, and edgers cost thousands of dollars and need regular maintenance. Dull blades make grass 20% more susceptible to disease. Improper watering causes 70% of poor lawn health. Most homeowners don’t know their soil pH, which affects everything from fertilizer effectiveness to weed control.
Professional lawn maintenance in Ash Grove, NY means you’re paying for expertise, equipment, and consistency. Your lawn gets cut at the right height, on the right schedule, with sharp blades and proper technique. You get your weekends back and a yard that actually looks maintained, not just mowed.
