How often should my lawn be mowed during growing season?

Most Connecticut lawns need mowing weekly during peak growing season (late spring through early fall) and every 10-14 days during slower growth periods. The key is never cutting more than one-third of the grass height at once, which keeps your lawn healthy and thick. We adjust our mowing schedule based on actual growth rates, not just calendar dates, so your lawn gets cut when it needs it. Weather conditions, rainfall, and temperature all affect how fast grass grows, which is why flexible scheduling produces better results than rigid weekly cuts regardless of conditions.
Spring cleanup includes removing winter debris, pruning dead branches, clearing beds of old mulch and leaves, and preparing your landscape for new growth. Fall cleanup focuses on leaf removal, final mowing, and winterizing your landscape to prevent damage during cold months. Both services include disposing of all debris—you don’t have to worry about bagging or hauling anything. We also identify any issues that developed during the off-season, like damaged plants or drainage problems, so you can address them before they become bigger problems.
Connecticut weather requires flexibility and local knowledge. We monitor conditions closely and adjust schedules to work with the weather, not against it. Mowing wet grass damages your lawn, so we’ll reschedule rather than show up and do poor work. During dry spells, we adjust cutting height to help grass retain moisture. In wet periods, we may need to mow more frequently to prevent disease issues. Our equipment is designed to handle Connecticut’s varied conditions, from rocky soil to steep slopes common in the New Preston area.
Absolutely. New Preston properties often feature beautiful mature trees and established landscaping that should be preserved and enhanced, not removed. We design our services around existing features, using proper techniques for mowing around trees, maintaining beds with established plantings, and creating new landscape elements that complement what’s already there. Our experience with Connecticut’s native plants and mature landscapes means we know how to work with what you have while improving overall appearance and function.
We address any concerns immediately and make it right. If something isn’t done to your standards, we’ll return to fix it at no additional cost. Our goal is long-term relationships with New Preston homeowners, which only happens when you’re completely satisfied with both the work quality and our communication. We’d rather spend extra time getting it right than move on to the next job leaving you unhappy. Most issues can be resolved with a quick conversation and adjustment to our approach.
