Mowing Service

At Green Dog we know how to mow your lawn for the best possible outcome.  Proper mowing increases the density and beauty of the lawn, and decreases weeds.  We know that it is best to never cut more than 1/3 of the grass blade length at any one time. However, a healthy lawn can survive an occasional close cut, but repeated close mowing produces a brown lawn and has several harmful side effects, including:

  • Injury to the base, where new growth generates and nutrients are stored.

  • Increased vulnerability to pests and disease.

  • Increase in a weed producing environment.

In addition to understanding your specific lawn requirements, there are basic practices that we have incorporated to promote healthy and beautiful lawns resulting from our mowing regimen including:

  • sharpening and balancing our mower blades daily to avoid ragged cuts made by dull blades,

  • changing the mowing pattern to promote upright growth and avoid ruts, and

  • adjusting mowing height based on weather and lawn conditions.

We also recognize that the customer is our most important concern so we are always willing to adjust our mowing schedule to meet their needs.
