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.
