Grounds Maintenance
Lawn Mowing
Ultra Turf provides weekly mowing service starting in early April:
- • Weekly mowing is done unless hot dry conditions in late July and August keep the grass from growing. Those with sprinkler systems still require weekly mowing.
- • We adjust our blade height according to the season and changing temperatures. Regular maintenance and sharpening of blades is done to ensure a quality cut.
- • Trimming is done to any areas not accessible with our mowers.
- • Vegetation control is available and recommended starting as little as $55. Spraying fences, base of home, light poles, ac units etc. will extend the life of these costly items.
- • Edging is maintained weekly.
- • Walks and patio are blown of any debris.
- • Bagging clippings: to help do our part for the environment Ultra Turf recycles clippings back to the lawn. Bagging is available at additional cost.
Billing: We can bill you for the number of cuts received in the month prior or we provide full season contracts that can include all your services totaled into one package. The total is divided into 10-12 equal installments billed month by mail or email. Average cuttings for a season vary between 28 and 33 pending weather conditions.
