Lawn Care & Mowing in Onalaska and the Lake Livingston Area
Regular mowing, edging, trimming, blowing and leaf cleanup that keeps a yard looking cared for.
A yard that always looks kept
Grass grows fast through a long East Texas growing season, and it only takes a week or two away for a yard to look neglected. For weekend lake homeowners, busy families and anyone who would rather spend Saturday on the water, regular lawn care takes that job off the list.
Onalaska Builders provides lawn care with our own crews.
Lawn care includes:
- Mowing
- Edging along drives, walks and beds
- String trimming around fences, trees and obstacles
- Blowing clippings off hard surfaces
- Leaf cleanup
Doing it right
What makes a good cut
- The right height. Cutting too short stresses grass, especially in summer heat, and lets weeds move in.
- Sharp blades cut cleanly instead of tearing, which keeps the lawn healthier.
- Clean edges along driveways, walks and beds make the whole yard look finished.
- Trimming the spots a mower misses, around fences, trees, posts and the house.
- Cleaning up after. Clippings are blown off drives, walks and patios.
Leaf cleanup
Leaves and pine needles
Wooded lots around the lake drop leaves and pine needles through much of the year. Left on the lawn, they block sunlight and trap moisture, which can thin the grass underneath. Leaf cleanup keeps the lawn healthy and the yard tidy.
Needles and leaves also pile up in gutters and on decks. See gutter services and deck restoration.
Choosing the right service
Lawn care, landscaping or bush hogging?
- Lawn care is regular mowing, edging, trimming and cleanup for a maintained yard.
- Landscaping maintenance covers shrubs, trees, mulch and flower beds.
- Bush hogging handles overgrown acreage and pasture that a lawn mower cannot.
Many properties use a combination, such as regular lawn care around the house and occasional bush hogging on the back acreage.
