When it comes to maintaining the look and health of your lawn and garden, you have two options: you could attempt to maintain your yard yourself, or you could hire a professional lawn and garden care service to do the hard work for you. While many homeowners might initially think that D.I.Y lawn care and garden maintenance is the best option, there are many reasons why a lawn and garden care service may actually be the better option. If you are trying to decide whether to continue maintaining your own yard, or hire a lawn and garden care service, here are just a few of the many benefits of having a professional take care of your green space for you.
Mowing:
It is important to maintain grass at the correct length for weather conditions and seasons. When it comes lawn care King of the Garden uses an organic approach which saves time and money. Almost without exception, lawn clippings should always be mulched back into the lawn. The benefits of mulching lawn clippings are too numerous and valuable to ignore. From providing nutrients for the soil to saving significant amounts of time and money, mulching the lawn clippings makes sense. Lawn clippings add valuable organic matter to the soil which improves the overall health of your lawn providing you with a lush green lawn.
Time:
For many people the greatest benefit of a lawn and garden care service is that it frees up time to devote to other activities. Hiring professionals allows you to maximise your time on other important and valuable things while your lawn is taken care of and maintained without fuss.
Money:
Contrary to what some people may think, hiring a lawn care professional can actually save you money in the long run. Neglecting your landscape can cause problems such as allowing invasive weeds and pests to take up residence on your property or cause plants to die. The cost of fixing these problems often overshadows the price of hiring King of the Garden to take care of the lawn and garden maintenance that could’ve prevented any huge problems. There is also the opportunity cost of doing your own lawn. Opportunity cost is the loss of potential gain by choosing one alternative over another. In other words, the time and energy you spend maintaining your lawn is time and energy being lost doing something else. If it takes you two hours a week to do lawn and garden maintenance and the cost of having a professional to do the same work costs staying at the office one hour, then you can add another hour to your day by staying at work an extra hour a week and hiring a lawn care service. You can also think of the more abstract costs, like the time lost that could be spent with friends and family or used for self-improvement.
Expertise:
If you want your lawn and garden to be at its best health and best aesthetic appearance, then a professional lawn and garden care service is what you’ll need. The average homeowner will not have the knowledge and expertise of a professional who does this for a living. Even if you do find instructions on proper lawn and garden maintenance, they won’t be specific to your green space Alternatively, a professional will know exactly what your green space needs, and will be able to create a unique care plan for your yard.
Equipment:
Another element that comes with being a professional is having the right tools for the job. Hiring a professional doesn’t only mean you get their expertise, but also their toolkit with all of the proper equipment needed to take care of your lawn and garden. Professional lawn and garden care services like King of the Garden go even farther, by providing safe, alternative solutions that are natural and organic.
If you were to purchase the wide range of tools and supplies needed to maintain your lawn and garden space at the professional level, it would cost thousands or tens of thousands of dollars!
