Is Hiring Professional Lawn Care Right for You?
Is Hiring Professional Lawn Care Right for You?
What Does Lawn Care Really Cost You?
The Reality of DIY Lawn Care
If you’re busy with work, kids, sports, and life, maintaining a beautiful lawn can be more than just a weekend project—it can become a major time and energy drain. Let’s break it down:
Time
2-3 hours per week mowing, edging, and cleaning up.
That’s 10-12 hours per month or nearly 100 hours per season.
If you value your time at $35/hour, that’s $3,500 annually.
Materials
Fertilizer costs $50 per bag, and most lawns require 4–5 bags per season: around $200–$250 annually.
Weed control (1 bottle per year): about $50 annually.
Specialty products for pests, diseases, or harder-to-kill weeds: around $50–$100 annually.
Grass seed: about $50 annually.
Total Materials: About $350–$450 annually.
Equipment
Maintenance costs for mowers and tools: $150–$300 per year.
Aerator rental once a year: $100 annually.
Replacing equipment over time is another hidden expense.
The Trade-Off: Time vs. Results
For many busy homeowners, DIY lawn care isn’t worth the hours spent after work and on weekends. Even then, without professional expertise, the results can be underwhelming.
Hiring professionals costs about $2,560 annually (based on $320/month for 8 months) and delivers consistent, high-quality results without the hassle.
Here’s the catch: We might save you money—but you can’t DIY it.
Who Is Lawn Care For? (Hint: It Might Be You)
You’re Probably Our Ideal Client If:
You value your time: Between kids’ sports, family outings, and a full work schedule, your weekends are too valuable to spend pushing a mower.
You want a great lawn but don’t want the stress: You’re okay with realistic, professional results without worrying about weeds, uneven growth, or dead spots.
You understand value: Paying for professional care means getting back 80-100 hours of your life each year while enjoying a lawn you can be proud of.
The Difference Between You and a Hardcore DIYer
Some homeowners treat their lawn like a full-time passion: mowing twice a week, fertilizing monthly, hand-pulling weeds, and monitoring every inch of soil health.
They get insane results—sometimes better than any company can deliver—because they put in the hours and care.
If that’s you, we salute you! You’re a lawn care champion. (Want a job?)
For everyone else, professionals deliver a healthy, well-maintained lawn—without eating up your weekends.
