- Mowing front, back and side yards at the right height for your grass
- Edging along sidewalks, the driveway and the curb for clean, straight lines
- String trimming around fences, beds, trees, mailboxes and other spots the mower can't reach

- A quick once-over for sticks, fronds or debris, which get picked up and hauled away
Mowing St. Augustine Grass the Right Way
Most lawns around Seminole are St. Augustine grass, the most common lawn grass in Florida. It's a wide-bladed grass that looks best and stays healthiest when it isn't cut too short. University of Florida IFAS Extension recommends mowing standard St. Augustine varieties like Floratam at about 3.5 to 4 inches. Dwarf varieties are the exception and are kept lower.
Cutting at that height helps the grass grow deeper roots, shade out weeds and handle dry spells. UF/IFAS also advises removing no more than a third of the blade in one mowing and raising the height a bit in shady spots or during drought. That's why I set the deck for your lawn instead of scalping every yard at the same height. Bahia, Zoysia and other grasses get the height that suits them.
How Often to Mow in Pinellas County
Our grass grows all year, just at different speeds:
- Summer growing season: weekly mowing. Warm weather and summer rain make St. Augustine grow fast, and skipping a week often means cutting off too much at once.
- Cooler months: every one to two weeks. Growth slows in the cooler, drier part of the year, so many yards can stretch the time between cuts.
I'll suggest a schedule based on how fast your yard actually grows, and we can adjust it as the seasons change.
Recurring Schedules
Most customers choose a recurring schedule, weekly or every other week, so the yard never gets away from them. You get a set day, the same person every visit, and a text if rain pushes things back. One-time mows are available too, for example before a party, a home sale, or after you've been out of town.

Pricing depends mainly on how big your lawn is and how much edging and trimming it has. A small villa yard and a corner lot with long sidewalks are very different jobs. Call or text (727) 304-7803 or request a free quote online, and I'll give you a clear number for your yard.

Frequently Asked Questions
How short do you cut St. Augustine grass?
For standard St. Augustine varieties I aim for about 3.5 to 4 inches, the height UF/IFAS Extension recommends. Dwarf varieties and other grass types get the height that suits them.
Do you bag the clippings?
Clippings are normally mulched back into the lawn, which returns nutrients to the soil. Clippings blown onto hard surfaces are cleaned up, and any yard debris is hauled away.
What if it rains on my mowing day?
Summer storms happen. If weather makes mowing unsafe or would damage the lawn, I'll text you and reschedule as soon as conditions allow.
Do I have to be home?
No. As long as I can get into the yard (an unlocked gate, a code, or the dog inside), you don't need to be home.
