Ah, the suburbs of Newark, Delaware. So green. So well-tended. We can thank the hard-working men and women that work for the many excellent lawn care services here in Newark for that. Local lawn care companies tend a large portion of the lawns in neighborhoods here, so much so that one lawn care company can be seen leapfrogging through single neighborhoods on regular days of the week, buzzing across one lawn to the lawn next door. Here are three of the top lawn care services in Newark, Delaware.
Lawn Doctor of Newark – Lawn Doctor is a trusted name across the United States. Their lawn services range from basic mowing to organic and natural lawn care. As with most landscaping companies, they will also trim shrubs and trees, apply fertilizer or herbicide, and take care of those pesky wed tufts that spring up in pavement cracks. They offer special deals all the time for first services and will come out for a free lawn care evaluation. They were mentioned in a Wall Street Journal on lawn fertilizing as offering the “best combination of service and pricing” among five companies they researched.
S & A Services – S & A Services is based in Hockessin but services most of New Castle County and parts of Pennsylvania. They are a full service lawn care and landscaping company – so if your existing yard is terrible, they will help with landscape design, lawn re-seeding, turf, and hardscaping. As with most companies, you can call them for a free estimate. What’s nice is that they are willing to work on individualized plans for homeowners and will tailor care to your needs.
Green – Green is a locally owned and operated family company here in Delaware. They’ve been around since 1997 and service most of the New Castle County area plus parts of Southeastern Pennsylvania. They’re a lawn treatment company, so no mowing or pruning…but their lawn treatment, sod services, and pest control bring rave reviews, some of which they include on their website. Other nice perks are online payment, photos of jobs they’ve done, regular specials, and organic based fertilizers.
Be sure to get in depth quotes from any service you call. Always ask about state certification and any ongoing training their lawn care specialists undergo, plus references from satisfied customers. And make sure that they will be disposing of any yard waste themselves rather than leave it for you to take care of – Delaware law prohibits curbside disposal of yard waste.
