Lawn Maintenance for Tyler yards
Weekly mowing in Tyler is the one service where the distance matters most, since it means a trip every week through the growing season. When we can take it on, you get the same crew and the same standards as our Longview yards, with the deck set for your grass: St. Augustine at three and a half to four inches in summer, bermuda around two. Call and we'll tell you if your address fits the schedule.
Lawn maintenance is the basics done the same way every week. We mow, edge along the walks, driveway and beds, string-trim around everything the mower can't reach, and blow every hard surface clean. Clippings go back into the turf instead of into bags, where they hand a little nitrogen and moisture back to the soil.

How the job goes
Mowing season in East Texas runs from about late March through October, with weekly cuts during peak growth and every other week as it slows. In peak growing weather a lawn wants a cut every five to seven days so you only ever take the top third. Starting in spring keeps the lawn out of the scalp-and-recover cycle that wrecks it by August.
Walk the yard
We look at your grass type, the sun, the slopes and the obstacles, then send a written per-visit price, usually within a day.
Set the schedule
Most yards go weekly from late March through October and every other week as growth slows. The same crew works your yard every time.
Mow, edge, trim, blow
Every visit gets the full routine: deck set for your grass, clean edges, trimmed obstacles and hard surfaces blown off.
Adjust with the season
We raise the deck for summer heat, mulch the first fall leaves back into the lawn, and drop to every other week when the grass slows down.
Flag what we see
Thin spots, standing water or a patch that keeps browning. We tell you while it is still small and cheap to fix.

Lawn Maintenance questions in Tyler
Will you do weekly mowing at my house in Tyler?
Maybe. Weekly service means a trip every week through the growing season, so it depends on what else we have in Tyler and where you are. Send your address with a quote request and we'll give you a straight answer. Our published starting price for a typical lot is $65 per visit, and your written quote gives the exact number.
How much does lawn maintenance cost in Tyler, TX?
Most weekly mowing for a typical Longview yard starts at $65 per visit, billed on a recurring schedule. Larger lots, heavy tree cover or a lot of extra trimming can move that number. We walk the yard and give you a flat per-visit price in writing before the first mow, so there are no surprises on the bill.
How often should my lawn be mowed in East Texas?
Weekly from about late March through October for most yards, when bermuda and St. Augustine put on the most growth, then every other week as things slow down. In peak growing weather a lawn wants a cut every five to seven days so you never take more than a third of the blade at once. We'll recommend a schedule after we walk your yard.
What height should I mow bermuda and St. Augustine?
Bermuda can run one to one and a half inches in spring and fall, but in a July heat wave hold it around two to two and a half inches. St. Augustine should never go below three inches and wants three and a half to four through summer. Cutting St. Augustine like bermuda is one of the surest ways to open a bare patch.
More we do in Tyler
Hardscaping & Patios
Patios and walkways are some of the best fits for Tyler, since each one is a single project where the drive is a small part of the job.
Retaining Walls
Tyler lots with a drop toward the street or a back fence are where walls make the most sense, turning a slope you can't use into level yard.
Landscaping
A full landscape in Tyler is project work, so the drive isn't an issue.
Drainage & Grading
Drainage in Tyler follows the same rules as the rest of East Texas: sandy loam on top, clay underneath, and water that moves sideways once the top foot is full.
Flower Bed Installation
If you want roses in a Tyler bed, we give them full sun and pair them with tough performers like salvia, lantana and dwarf yaupon.
Christmas Lights
We install Christmas lights in Tyler for homes and businesses, in warm white or color.
Leaf Removal
Tyler's older neighborhoods carry big oaks, pecans and pines, and the leaves end up in the lawn and the azalea beds alike.
Fertilization
Our fertilization program is four visits a year: late April once nights hold above 60 degrees, early July, early September, and a potassium winterizer in late October.
