Lawn care · Birmingham, AL
Reliable weekly mowing, crisp edging, leaf removal and shrub trimming for homes in Birmingham, Hoover, Vestavia Hills and Mountain Brook. We show up on schedule – and leave your yard cleaner than we found it.
What we do
Weekly lawn mowing is the heart of what we do. Add the seasonal jobs that keep the rest of the yard looking just as sharp.
Weekly, Apr – Oct
Weekly or bi-weekly mowing with edging, trimming and blow-off on every visit – the cut your grass type needs.
Leaves blown out of lawns, beds and corners, then mulched or hauled away – once or all season long.
Bushes and hedges shaped at the right time of year – crisp lines, healthy growth, clippings hauled away.
Weeds pulled by hand from beds, borders and cracks – roots and all – so the beds stay clean longer.
Overgrowth, vines, saplings and privet cleared from fence lines and back lots – and hauled away.
Beds cleaned and edged, then fresh mulch or long-leaf pine straw spread at the right depth.
A full reset for your yard – debris, beds, shrubs, lawn and edges – before a season, a sale or a party.
The M.E.T.B. routine
The same checklist on week twenty as on week one – that is what makes a lawn look professionally kept.
Commercial mowers with blades sharpened daily – a clean cut at the right height for your grass.
Steel-blade edging along the driveway, sidewalks and patio for crisp, straight lines.
String trimming around fences, trees, beds, mailboxes and the AC unit.
Clippings blown off walks, drive, porch and patio – never into the street.
Local & reliable
In an industry where “ghosting” is common, we pride ourselves on showing up. We work from downtown Birmingham, we know Bermuda from Zoysia and red clay from river bottom, and we communicate clearly – before, during and after every job.
Birmingham lawn calendar
Warm-season lawns in central Alabama follow the same rhythm every year. Tap a month to see what your yard needs – and what we take care of.
Warm-season grass is dormant. Keep leaves and fallen limbs off so the turf can breathe, and stay off frosty grass.
Grass growth: dormantFinal leaf cleanups, brush clearing and cutting back overgrowth while the trees are bare.
Still dormant. Late February is the time to cut back ornamental grasses and liriope before new growth starts.
Grass growth: dormantBrush and vine clearing, hard cut-backs of overgrown shrubs, winter bed cleanup.
Lawns start to green up late in the month. Clear winter debris so sunlight reaches the soil; a first low cut on Bermuda and Zoysia after the last hard freeze.
Grass growth: slowSpring cleanups, bed weeding and edging, fresh pine straw or mulch.
Green-up is in full swing. Start regular mowing every 7–14 days. Fescue is at its best – keep it at 3 to 4 inches.
Grass growth: steadyWeekly and bi-weekly mowing begins, azaleas trimmed right after they bloom, mulch refreshes.
Heat arrives and Bermuda and Zoysia take off. Mow weekly and never remove more than a third of the blade at once.
Grass growth: peakWeekly mowing, edging and trimming; boxwoods and hollies shaped; bed weeding.
Peak growth. Keep blades sharp, mow when the grass is dry and leave short clippings to feed the lawn. Water deeply, not daily.
Grass growth: peakWeekly mowing and bed weeding every few weeks as summer weeds appear.
Heat and humidity stress lawns. Never scalp – raise the cut a little in dry spells and watch for brown patch after storms.
Grass growth: peakWeekly mowing on a fixed day, storm debris cleanup.
Still peak growth. Consistent weekly cuts keep weeds out; shaded lawns may need a higher cut.
Grass growth: peakWeekly mowing, late-summer shrub trimming, bed weeding.
Growth begins to slow late in the month. Keep mowing weekly until the nights cool down.
Grass growth: steadyWeekly mowing, the second shrub trim of the year, bed refresh.
Growth slows – switch to every other week. Raise the height a little on the last cuts so the grass goes dormant with more leaf.
Grass growth: slowBi-weekly mowing, first fall cleanups, pine straw for winter.
The first frost turns warm-season lawns tan. A thick layer of leaves now can smother the turf.
Grass growth: dormantLeaf removal every two to three weeks, the final mow and edge of the season.
The last oaks let go of their leaves. Keep the lawn clear and the walks safe.
Grass growth: dormantFinal leaf cleanups with haul-away; brush clearing season begins.
