Lawn Mowing & Maintenance in Fairview
Fairview lawns fall into two camps, and the mowing changes with each. The mid-century blocks near the school sit under old maples and oaks, so the turf there is thin and shade-stressed and wants to be left taller. The open lots on the edge of town bake in full sun and lean toward crabgrass, so they want height too, just for a different reason: a taller canopy shades the soil and keeps crabgrass seed from sprouting.
Either way we follow the one-third rule and never take off more than a third of the blade in a cut. Scalping a stressed lawn invites weeds and bare spots, and a dull blade tears the grass instead of slicing it, leaving frayed white tips that brown out and open the door to disease.
Sharp Blades, Consistent Schedule
Our blades get sharpened on a rotation, we vary the mowing pattern so the grass does not lay over one way, and we keep the edges clean along walks and beds. We bag or mulch the clippings depending on what the lawn needs that week.
A regular cut pairs naturally with a fertilization program, and on the heavily shaded streets near the school we often pair mowing with leaf removal once the maples let go in fall. Full details are on our lawn mowing page, and everything we handle in town is at Fairview.
