When it comes to lawn and landscaping care, there are two schools of thought: the “pick and choose” approach or full-service maintenance plans. Full-service maintenance includes a regular mowing schedule, annual color, yard cleanups, leaf removal, trimming, and more.
Learn why opting for full-service lawn and landscaping can be better for you and your property in the long run. Residential and commercial property owners in Morehead City, Newport, Atlantic Beach, and nearby North Carolina communities can benefit from comprehensive landscaping management.
A regular maintenance crew gets to know your property
Every property is unique, and having a full-service maintenance plan means that the same crew will visit your property regularly. They will get to know the nuances of your plants and grass and how they respond to different services and treatments.
Having the same crew working on your lawn and landscaping also means they quickly learn what to work on and what to leave alone. They will quickly learn focal points and what is most important to you and your property.
Because they see your landscaping elements so frequently, they also spot signs of trouble before they get out of hand and harder to control, like lawn disease, insect/pest problems, and more.
Combining multiple lawn and landscape services can save money
Picking and choosing assorted lawn care services seems like a great idea on the surface. After all, you get to choose exactly what you need, right? When you start getting into multiple services, you can actually save money. A comprehensive service plan offers significant discounts compared to the a la carte approach.
Additionally, because a regular crew can spot property problems early, treating these types of lawn issues like disease and pests is less expensive than if you treat after the problem has gotten severe.
Feel safer with a regular, familiar crew
It’s always a little unnerving when strangers are on your property. You won’t know anybody in a one-time crew, and scheduling individual services might mean that you get a different crew each time. Regular service means you get to know your lawn care service providers, which gives you a feeling of additional safety and peace of mind. You can also easily communicate your property needs and let them know what’s off limits and where to focus.
Professional lawn care maintenance means you don’t have to do the heavy lifting
Regular property maintenance includes many details that often get ignored when you take the DIY approach, like trimming plants and edges, reshaping beds, and mulch/rock ground cover.
If you own a rental property, you may not be able to get to the house regularly to do your own upkeep, and a regular crew can up your curb appeal and keep your landscaping and lawn looking presentable. For commercial properties, regular maintenance keeps landscaping professional, which always looks better when dealing with customers and clients.
