You’ve got better things to do than spend Saturday morning pushing a mower around your property. Your lawn still needs to look good, though—especially when the neighbors are watching and you’re trying to enjoy your yard instead of maintaining it.
That’s where professional lawn mowing in Hudson Falls, NY makes sense. You get consistent cuts at the right height for your grass type, clean edges along walkways and beds, and someone who knows how to handle the tricky spots around trees and landscaping without tearing things up. No more half-finished jobs because your mower died or the weather didn’t cooperate.
The result is a yard that looks maintained without eating up your time. You’re not scrambling to catch up after a busy week or letting it go too long because you couldn’t get to it. It just gets done, on schedule, so you can actually use your property the way you want to.
We started as a logging operation back in 1997, and we’ve been working on properties throughout Washington County ever since. When we transitioned to full-time excavation and property services in 2020, lawn mowing became a natural extension of what we already do—site work, land clearing, and keeping properties functional and looking right.
Josh is on almost every job, which means you’re not dealing with a different crew each week or wondering if the work will match what you were promised. We’re a family operation—Josh’s son joined as a partner in 2022—and we’re not interested in quick jobs and moving on. We want to be your lawn mowing service in Hudson Falls, NY for the long haul.
Hudson Falls properties come with their own challenges. The soil here holds moisture differently depending on where you are in town, and summer droughts can turn grass yellow fast if you’re not paying attention. We know when to adjust cutting height and when your lawn actually needs a break.
First, we come out and look at your property. We’re checking the size, the terrain, any obstacles or tricky areas, and what kind of grass you’re working with. That tells us what equipment makes sense and how long the job will actually take. You get a clear estimate with no surprises.
Once we’re scheduled, we show up on the day we said we would. We mow at the right height for your grass type—not too short, which stresses the lawn, and not so high that it looks unfinished. We trim around edges, beds, trees, and structures, then clean up clippings and debris before we leave.
If something changes—weather delays, property issues, whatever—we let you know. You’re not left guessing when we’ll be there or if we’re still coming. After the job, the site is clean and your lawn looks like someone who knows what they’re doing handled it.
We can set up regular scheduling so you don’t have to think about it each week. You just know it’s getting done. If you need adjustments or have specific requests, you can reach Josh directly by text or call.

Our grass mowing in Hudson Falls, NY covers more than just running a mower across your yard. You get trimming and edging along walkways, driveways, and landscape beds so the whole property looks finished. We handle cleanup and debris removal—clippings, sticks, whatever—so you’re not left with a mess after we’re done.
We use commercial-grade equipment that’s sized right for residential properties. That means cleaner cuts and less damage to your grass compared to undersized or poorly maintained equipment. We’re also careful around existing landscaping, utilities, and structures. If there’s something on your property that needs attention or could be a problem, we’ll let you know.
Hudson Falls lawns deal with specific challenges depending on the season. Spring growth can be aggressive—sometimes requiring double cutting or bagging to keep up. By July and August, heat and drought can slow things down to where weekly mowing doesn’t make sense. We adjust based on what your lawn actually needs, not a rigid schedule that doesn’t account for local conditions.
If your property has drainage issues or areas that turn into ponds after storms, we can handle that too. Our background in excavation and site work means we understand how water moves across your land, and we can recommend solutions if mowing keeps getting delayed because of standing water.
Lawn mowing in Hudson Falls typically runs between $15 and $76 per visit, depending on your property size and complexity. The statewide average in New York is around $55, which gives you a baseline for what’s reasonable.
Your actual cost depends on square footage, terrain, obstacles like trees and landscaping, and how much trimming and edging is involved. A flat quarter-acre lot with minimal obstacles costs less than a sloped property with multiple beds, trees, and tight spaces that require extra time and precision.
We give you a clear estimate upfront after looking at your property. No hidden fees for “extra” trimming or cleanup—that’s part of the job. If you have flower beds, extensive landscaping, or other features that require careful work, we’ll factor that into the price from the start so you know exactly what you’re paying.
Most Hudson Falls properties need mowing every 7 to 10 days during peak growing season, which runs from late spring through early summer. That changes based on weather, though—you’re not locked into a schedule that doesn’t make sense for your lawn.
Spring can bring aggressive growth, especially after rain. You might need more frequent cuts to keep up, and sometimes bagging clippings makes sense to avoid smothering the grass. By mid-summer, when heat and drought kick in, growth slows down significantly. Mowing every two weeks—or even less—might be plenty.
We adjust based on what your lawn actually needs. If it doesn’t need cutting, we’re not going to show up and scalp it just to stick to a schedule. That stresses your grass and wastes your money. We’ll let you know what makes sense as conditions change throughout the season.
Yellow grass in Hudson Falls during July and August usually means drought stress. Your lawn needs more water, or it’s going dormant to protect itself from heat. This is common here, and it doesn’t necessarily mean your grass is dying.
If you’re watering and it’s still turning yellow, you might not be watering deeply enough. Grass needs about an inch of water per week during dry periods, and it’s better to water deeply once or twice a week than lightly every day. Shallow watering encourages shallow roots, which makes drought stress worse.
You should also raise your mowing height during hot, dry periods. Taller grass shades the soil, retains moisture better, and handles heat stress more effectively. We adjust cutting height based on conditions, but if you’re mowing yourself, keep it at least three inches during summer. If the yellowing is severe or patchy, it could be a soil or drainage issue, and we can take a look to see what’s actually going on.
We usually leave clippings on the lawn unless there’s a reason not to. Grass clippings decompose quickly and return nutrients to your soil, which means you need less fertilizer over time. They don’t cause thatch buildup if you’re mowing regularly at the right height.
There are times when bagging makes sense, though. If the grass got too long and clippings are heavy enough to smother the lawn, we’ll bag them. Same thing if you’re dealing with weeds that are going to seed—you don’t want to spread those across your property.
If you prefer bagging for appearance or other reasons, just let us know. We can handle it either way. The goal is a healthy lawn that looks good, and sometimes that means adjusting the approach based on conditions or your preferences.
Yes. Hudson Falls properties often deal with drainage issues, especially in low-lying areas or after heavy rain. If parts of your lawn turn into ponds after every storm, that affects when and how we can mow—and it’s hard on your grass long-term.
Our background in excavation and site work means we understand how water moves across properties. We can identify where drainage problems are coming from and recommend solutions that actually work for local soil and terrain. Sometimes it’s a grading issue, sometimes it’s poor soil compaction, and sometimes you need proper drainage systems installed.
We can handle mowing around problem areas in the short term, but if standing water is a recurring issue, it’s worth addressing the root cause. We’ll walk your property, explain what’s happening, and give you options. You’re not stuck with a lawn that’s only usable half the time because of water problems.
We reschedule and let you know. Hudson Falls weather can be unpredictable, especially during spring and early summer when rain is frequent. If conditions aren’t right for mowing—ground’s too wet, storm’s coming through, whatever—we’re not going to show up and tear up your lawn just to stick to a schedule.
Mowing wet grass causes problems. It clumps, clogs equipment, doesn’t cut cleanly, and can damage your lawn by compacting soil and spreading disease. It’s better to wait a day or two than to do a poor job or create new issues.
We’ll reach out by text or call to let you know about delays and when we’ll be back. You’re not left wondering if we forgot about you or if the job’s still happening. Once conditions improve, we get you back on schedule. If growth was aggressive during the delay and the grass is too long, we adjust our approach—sometimes double-cutting or bagging—to handle it properly.
