Sustainable Stewards will contact you with mowing schedule or date of service to be performed.

Sustainable Stewards wants each and every service to go as smooth as possible which requires some checks by the property owner before service: Lawn or turf is clear of obstructions (sticks, kid and dog toys, rocks, dog poop, etc.) Discuss any sensitive areas & property lines with your local Steward Gates need to be unlocked Animals must be out of the service area If pesticides are applied by another company, Sustainable Stewards require a 24 hour notice of application. ** Sustainable Stewards does our best to close each gate after service!

Each electric lawn service includes: Mow, Trim, Edge, and Clean-Up.

Regular lawn mowing is a must to keep your lawn looking its best! Overgrown lawns can create an environment that is suitable for weeds/pests and can be costly down the road to get your lawn back on track. Sustainable Stewards recommends mowing a lawn once per week on average. During peak growing & rain seasons your lawn may need up to 2x mows per week depending on growth rate. Your local Steward will discuss if 2x/week is necessary. During dry season it may only need mowed once every other week.

Sustainable Stewards performs both residential and commercial services!

Sustainable Stewards uses all electric lawn care equipment when it comes to lawn care maintenance. Our equipment is quiet and provides a quality cut each and every service.

Sustainable Stewards will set up a mowing schedule that usually equates to 1x/week on average. It is the responsibility of customer to contact your local Steward at sustainablestewards@outlook.com or 5633401347 if service is not needed during a given week. You will be credited on the following month's invoice for the skipped service.

To maintain a healthy lawn Sustainable Stewards cuts grass at a length of 3 to 3 1/3 inches. If length desired is out of this range contact your local steward to discuss options.

Sustainable Stewards will always aim to mow on your set service day but sometimes weather impacts service. Your service may be moved to earlier or later in the day to avoid inclement weather. We may also exercise moving your service date to the day before or after the normal date due to weather. Sustainable Stewards will ALWAYS communicate schedule changes due to weather.

Lawns can get out of hand quickly especially during the growing season. A lawn is considered overgrown at 6 inches. Depending on the degree of overgrowth will effect the rate at which the lawn is quoted for an overgrowth service. In some instances, clippings will need to be bagged and removed to protect the health of your lawn. This is considered a yard cleanup and will be quoted appropriately. Your lawn may look "choppy" after an overgrown lawn is mowed. Consistent mowing over the following couple weeks will even out the length of the grass to make it look more uniform.

Sustainable Stewards does our best to avoid wet grass but during the wet season it is inevitable.

Aeration is best performed during growing seasons which are spring and/or fall. It is good practice to aerate at least once per year to maintain healthy lawn turf. Heavy traffic areas and compacted soils may need to be performed twice a year. Aeration is highly recommended when overseeding to help create soil to seed contact and encourage deep root growth.

Dethatch should be performed once a year to help maintain a healthy thatch layer. Collected lawn thatch can be left on the property or hauled away by Sustainable Stewards for a compost fee. See Dethatch section for more information.

Fall is the best time to seed because of less competition for weeds and warmer ground temps. Seeding can be done in the spring time as well but may produce a lower germination rate.

Sustainable Stewards uses a tow-behind core aerator that will require an access point of 43 inches or wider (gates). Is is best practice to water your lawn 24 hours before aeration in order to maximize aeration depth.

Watering is crucial to establishing grass seed. Watering should mostly be done in the morning before 10am, except during Week 1 of watering in which you want to water around dusk as well. Below is the recommended water schedule: Week 1: 2x Daily AM & PM Week 2 & 3: 1x Daily AM Week 4 & After: 2-3x Weekly (Depending on rainfall)
