Lawn Mowing Services in Hudson, MA

Suburban America loves their lawns. Turf is the most common and dominant element in most landscapes in our suburban area so it’s important that it looks its best. Our mow crews are highly trained with an eye for detail to give you that Fenway look when you pull into your driveway.

Our routing is done geographically to minimize drive time, and, our fleet of mow equipment has begun to switch over to propane fuel. Propane is a clean burning fuel that emits water instead of carbon monoxide thus reducing our carbon footprint & helping to make your lawn green in more ways than one. Turf is one of the best plants to clean the air & keep it cool as well.

Whether your turf is purely aesthetic, the neighborhood soccer field or town’s sports turf, we can keep it looking great.

Pruning and Mulching In Hudson, MA

Knowledge of how a particular species grows and reacts to pruning is essential to promoting good health and structure. Skill is required to make the pruning cuts properly.

We strongly recommend that you hire a qualified professional to prune your trees and plants in a way that will ensure proper healing and life long health.

Dave’s Landscape has a Mass. Certified Arborist on staff to ensure a proper & professional job.

Mulching provides a great way to finish any yard. In addition to the pleasing smell of fresh mulch, mulch also helps prevent weed germination; it aids in moisture retention & insulates the soil as the plant hardens off for winter.

After prepping the beds by edging & weeding, we typically use our mulch blowers to install the mulch in an even & consistent way to create a beautiful appearance.

Spring and Fall Cleanups

Spring clean ups usually happen in April before the turf starts it’s growing season. Removing all the winter debris & road sand, those leaves that tend to hang on all winter & a good dethatching will spruce up your yard for the summer. Aeration is a great cultural practice to do in the spring as well as it opens up the soil to allow oxygen, water, & fertilizer to enter the root zone & helps to alleviate compaction and thatch build up.

Fall clean ups include removing all the leaves from the turf & beds & mowing the grass a little shorter for the winter. Leaf removal will help prevent the turf from matting over, suffocating & being prone to disease. Leaf litter is a real nuisance all winter as well. Rest assured that those leaves will be put to good use as all of our yard waste is composted at our facility & mixed in w/ soil for a nice rich loam.

Mulch is something that you should be applying to your lawn during 3 of the 4 major seasons in Massachusetts. Our team recommends the late spring and early fall months as the best time to put down fertilizer, though we can come by during the summer months to apply an additional coating.

There are a few key warning signs that you can point to as an indication of your sprinklers malfunctioning. Some involve the unit itself, while others examine the area around it. Give us a call today, and we can get them examined – and if need be, provide you with efficient replacements!

 

  • Dry or brown patches on your lawn
  • Low water pressure when sprinklers are running
  • Damaged sprinkler heads
  • Soggy spots or pooling water around your lawn

This will depend on the season you’re in. The growing season, which takes place from spring to fall, should be the period when you’re most active in checking for weeds. You should do this at least once per week.

During the growing period, you should be mowing your lawn roughly once a week. During the winter months, this can be reduced to once every two weeks depending on snowfall.

The ⅓ rule in lawn mowing states that you should never remove more than a third of a grass blade’s height in a single mowing.

The flowers that work best for your landscape will depend on what kind of atmosphere you’re trying to cultivate, what season it is, and your own personal preferences. Regardless, we have the inventory necessary to match your desires!

You should not do this! Regular road salt can dry out your lawn and landscape. Recovering from an incident like this is tough and costly, so you should contact our professionals to get rid of ice in the safest way possible.

Enrolling in the pest control program ensures that your lawn and landscape is protected from insects and other types of pests. Since they can spread rapidly and kill the landscape’s appearance, it’s crucial to get control services performed.
