Lawn Maintenace and Mowing Costs Around East Texas
My neighborhood here in Texas is nice and safe but of course I live next to a couple of older gentlemen who are retired and with their extra time love to work on their yard. I truly appreciate their work because it makes our area look nice, but the problem is that I don’t have the same amount of time to devote to my lawn. Which is why I have been interested in seeing what the prices look like to have someone else make my yard look great.
For years I used to love to mow the lawn and I still enjoy cleaning up the yard with the sun shining, but it truly comes down to not having the time to get everything done. Which is why I started looking at prices for lawn care, but I found out quickly that the price quotes were all over the place. Obviously, the more established and well-known companies charge a lot more than a smaller company just getting started.

When first doing my research, I found that the website Home Blue put the price scale like this:

Don’t expect a Discount on Lawn Care in Texas
