Smith Landscaping is a landscape contracting company based in Beloit, Ohio that offers full-service residential lawn mowing services throughout the Northeast Ohio area. Let our experienced team of lawn care professionals show you what we are capable of. Smith Landscaping is happy to provide professional mowing services to our gardening and/or mulching customers.
We do not offer stand-alone mowing services at this time.
On each lawn mowing service visit, our crew provides:
- Proper Mowing – All lawn areas will be mowed on a 7-10 day schedule to encourage healthy growth, limit weed establishment, and reduce the risk of insect and disease problems. Mowing patterns will be changed every visit so rutting does not occur.
- Trimming – Our crews will trim turf around landscape beds, fences, trees, utilities, your home foundation, and any other obstructions with special care.
- Edging – All sidewalks, driveways, and curbs will also be edged on each visit for a professional and clean look.
- Cleanup – Upon completion of the above tasks, our crews will blow off all hard surfaces including your sidewalks, driveway, patios, and decks.
Why is Proper Grass Mowing Important?
Your turf areas are probably a huge part of your landscape, so proper care is essential. Turf in Ohio needs to be mowed frequently during the growing season to encourage healthy growth. Proper and frequent mowing also limits weed establishment and reduces insect and disease problems.
Smith Landscaping mows our client’s residential properties on a 7-10 day cycle, beginning in April and continuing through November. When we mow your property on this schedule, no more than 1/3 of the grass blade is ever removed at one time. This follows the guidelines recommended for proper turfgrass management.
Our crew sharpens the blades of our mowers every day to ensure a clean cut to keep your turf healthy, as dull mower blades will tear the turf instead of cutting it clean, resulting in a rough appearance and leaving your lawn more susceptible to disease.
Mowing height is also important. Typically, we set our mowers to cut at 3 inches. Again, this is recommended for turfgrass species in our area. This is the correct height to encourage strong root growth, protect against drought stress, and shade out any potential weeds to keep them from getting a foothold.
What About Grass Clippings?
When your lawn is mowed at the proper intervals by a professional grass mowing company such as Smith Landscaping, no more than 1/3 of the grass blade is cut at any time. These clippings should be returned to the turf for maximum benefit. The clippings contain moisture and nutrients and are the perfect organic fertilizer to help strengthen your turf. Why would you want to remove this great source of lawn nutrition? Of course, any grass clumps will be removed as needed, but returning the clippings to the turf provides huge benefits over bagging and removing. Remember, all hard surfaces will be blown clean on each lawn mowing visit.
