Edging
Services

Lawn edging is the process of creating a clear, defined boundary between different areas of your landscape, such as the lawn and paved surfaces, garden beds, or driveways. It involves cutting through grass and overgrown dirt to form sharp, clean edges.

Importance of Lawn Edging:

• Enhances Curb Appeal: Well-defined edges give your property a neat, manicured look, making your home stand out.
• Prevents Encroachment: Edging keeps grass from creeping into garden beds and walkways, helping maintain the integrity of your landscape design.
• Improves Lawn Health: By preventing grass from spreading uncontrollably, edging ensures that each area of your lawn receives the nutrients and space it needs to thrive.
• Simplifies Maintenance: Clearly defined borders make mowing and other lawn care tasks easier and more efficient.
• Increases Property Value: A well-maintained lawn with clean edges can boost the overall value and appeal of your property.

We recommend a minimum of once a month to maintain clean and defined edges. For those who prefer a consistently neat appearance, edging every other week is ideal to prevent any overgrowth. If you want your edges to always look perfect and pristine, opting for weekly edging services will ensure your lawn remains in top condition. Regular edging not only enhances the look of your property but also helps maintain the health and structure of your landscape.

While it’s possible to edge your lawn yourself, hiring a professional offers significant benefits:

1. Expertise and Precision: Professionals have the experience and skill to achieve the straight, clean edges that truly enhance your lawn’s appearance.
2. Specialized Equipment: Investing in the necessary equipment can be costly. A stick edger can cost around $250, and a line trimmer is about $250 as well. Additionally, there’s a learning curve to using these tools effectively without damaging your lawn.
3. Consistent Results: Regular visits from a professional ensure that your lawn always looks its best, with neat and well-defined edges.
4. Time-Saving: Edging can be a time-consuming and physically demanding task. Hiring a professional frees up your time, allowing you to relax and enjoy your yard without the hard work.
5. Comprehensive Care: Beyond just edging, professionals can offer additional lawn care services and expert advice, ensuring your entire landscape is healthy and well-maintained.
6. Long-Term Benefits: Professional edging helps prevent overgrowth, maintains the integrity of your lawn and garden beds, and contributes to the long-term beauty and health of your landscape.
7. Aesthetic Appeal: A professionally edged lawn not only looks better but can also boost your property’s curb appeal and value.

While DIY edging is possible, hiring a professional ensures the best possible results, saving you time and effort while maintaining your lawn at its peak condition.

The duration of the edging process can vary depending on the size and complexity of your lawn. On average, it takes about 30 minutes to an hour to edge a typical residential lawn. For larger properties or those with intricate landscaping, the process may take longer. Our professional team works efficiently to ensure that your lawn is edged to perfection without sacrificing quality.

We have a set price for our edging services for properties up to 1/2 acre, making it simple and straightforward for you.

We use Echo commercial stick edgers and line trimmers to achieve precise and clean cuts along the edges of your lawn. To ensure your property looks its best after our work, we also use commercial backpack blowers to blow off all areas we worked on, leaving your lawn neat and tidy.

Preparation for our edging services is easy and straightforward. Here’s what you need to do:

1. Clear the Driveway: Ensure there are no cars parked too close to the driveway edges. Ideally, having no cars in the driveway is preferred, but not mandatory.
2. Unlock Gates: If we need access to your backyard, please make sure any gates are unlocked and accessible.
3. Secure Pets: Make sure any pets are inside to ensure their safety and allow our team to work efficiently.

By taking these simple steps, you help us provide the best possible service, ensuring your lawn and edges look their best.

Yes, there are a few restrictions to our edging plans to ensure the best service and results:

1. Property Size: Our standard pricing covers properties up to 1/2 acre. Larger properties may require a custom quote.
2. Access: We need clear access to all areas that require edging. Please ensure gates are unlocked and pets are secured indoors. If we arrive on the scheduled date and the gates are locked, you will be charged for the full service.
3. Obstructions: While we can edge around most features, excessive obstructions or debris may hinder our ability to provide clean, precise edges.
4. Driveway Parking: For optimal service, it’s best if there are no cars parked in the driveway, particularly close to the edges.
5. Weather Conditions: Severe weather conditions, such as heavy rain or extreme heat, may affect our ability to perform edging services as scheduled. We will notify you if we need to reschedule.
6. Existing Edges Only: Our plans cover maintaining existing edges for lawns, driveways, and walkways. Cutting new edges for flower beds is not included. If you require a new bed edge to be cut, we would need to quote that separately. These jobs typically cost between $2-$3 per linear foot.
7. Commitment and Payments: The prices on the website reflect a 3-month commitment, with the exception of the one-time service. Once you sign up, we will set up autopayments for the 3-month period with the option to renew at any time. You can cancel the service at any time, but you will still be responsible for paying the remaining months.

By adhering to these guidelines, we can ensure that your lawn receives the highest quality edging service possible.

No, we will not mow the lawn during this service. If you require lawn mowing as well as edging, our Lawn Mowing Services will be a better fit for you.
