How often should my lawn be mowed during growing season?

Most New Milford lawns need weekly mowing from April through October. Connecticut’s growing season can be aggressive, especially during spring and early summer when grass grows fastest. Waiting longer than a week often means cutting too much at once, which stresses the grass and leaves clippings that can smother your lawn. Weekly service keeps your grass healthy and your property looking consistently maintained without the shock of dramatic cutting.

When should leaf cleanup happen in Connecticut?

Leaf cleanup typically happens in two phases in Connecticut. The first cleanup occurs in late October or early November when most leaves have fallen but before snow arrives. A second cleanup may be needed in late November or early December for oak trees and other late-dropping varieties. Timing matters because leaves left on your lawn through winter will create dead spots and disease problems come spring. Professional scheduling ensures cleanup happens at the right time for your specific property.

What's included in professional lawn maintenance service?

Complete lawn maintenance includes mowing at the proper height for your grass type, edging along walkways and beds for clean lines, and trimming around obstacles like trees and fences. Professional service also includes blowing clippings off hardscapes and ensuring your property looks finished when the work is done. The goal is maintenance that keeps your lawn healthy and your property looking professionally maintained, not just quickly cut.

How do I know if I need custom landscape design?

You probably need landscape design if you have areas that consistently look messy, don’t drain properly, or just never seem to work right. Common signs include bare spots that won’t grow grass, areas where water pools after rain, or spaces that look empty or unfinished. Custom design solves these functional problems while improving your property’s appearance. It’s about creating landscapes that work with Connecticut’s climate and your maintenance preferences, not just adding plants randomly.

What should I expect from a landscaping contractor consultation?

A proper consultation involves walking your entire property and discussing what’s working and what isn’t. We should ask about your maintenance preferences, problem areas, and goals for your landscape. We should explain what services make sense for your property and give you realistic timelines and pricing. Good contractors focus on understanding your needs first, then recommending solutions that actually fit your situation and budget.

How far in advance should I schedule seasonal services?

Schedule seasonal services like leaf cleanup and spring preparation at least 2-3 weeks ahead of when you want the work done. Connecticut weather can be unpredictable, and professional landscaping companies book up quickly during peak seasons. Early scheduling ensures you get service when your property needs it, not when it fits into a last-minute opening. Most reliable contractors will contact you before seasonal work begins to confirm timing based on current conditions.
