This is one of the harder conversations I have with homeowners every spring. Someone calls me, I walk their property, and I can see pretty quickly that what they’ve got isn’t a lawn that needs more attention — it’s a lawn that needs to go. And nobody wants to hear that. They’ve been watering it, … Read more
Every June I start getting a specific kind of call. Not a problem call. A pride call. “Ryan, we’ve got people coming over in a week. Can you make the lawn look good before then?” I love these calls. It means the homeowner cares about how their property looks — and honestly, a well-maintained lawn … Read more
