How to Hire a Lawn Care Service

Summertime is so close we can smell it. Weekday evenings and weekends are starting to fill up with plans of baseball games, cookouts, and time outdoors with family. But wait, when are you going to find the time to care for your lawn? If lawn care is starting to get in the way of your summertime fun, it may be time to consider a lawn care professional who can do the bulk of the work for you. That way, you can have your thick, green, lush lawn without missing out on precious warm weather fun. Now comes the hard part, how do you choose the right lawn care company? Our team at Nature’s Select® has put together a few tips on how to find a quality lawn care service.

1. Look Around the Neighborhood

Check out your neighbors' lawns. Are there a few that seem particularly well-cared for, but you've never seen your neighbors working on them? That probably means they hired a professional service, so go ahead and ask them for a referral. You can also ask trusted friends and family around the Winston-Salem area for referrals.

2. Narrow Your Options

You can find many lawn care companies in the Winston-Salem area, including Clemmons, King, Kernersville, and the nearby suburbs. But don’t waste your time looking up each one. Based on the recommendations you’ve gathered or perhaps a Google search, narrow down your list to roughly 5 lawn care services to consider. Start poking around on their websites to gather information and to make a list of questions you want to ask.

3. Ask Those Questions

Schedule a consultation with at least three different lawn care companies. Be sure to have your list of questions handy during the consultation so you can understand what to expect and be able to compare their services. Also, be sure to get a written quote for the lawn care service(s) you’re interested in (including aeration, shrub care, or even pest control).

4. Compare

After meeting with each lawn care company representative, give yourself some time to compare their quotes, services, and customer service. Consider the professionalism the company has displayed, and ask yourself whether you’re comfortable with their level of customer service. At the end of the day, choose a lawn care service with which you feel comfortable. Remember, you’re choosing to invest money into professional lawn care, so you want to make sure that your money is well spent.

We hope that that you will keep Nature's Select® on your list of lawn care companies to consider. We care not only about your lawn, but also about the community and world in which we live. We strive to have a service mentality in everything we do. To get a free consultation and estimate from Nature's Select®, contact us today at (888) 786-9735.
