First thing I thought of after reading the title. Had no idea it would really be about lawn care.

This is certainly the time of year that I don't miss my big old Texas sized property. mowing and weed-eating that thing in the heat was a real bear.

maybe you ladies should hire someone to mow your yard.

I do, thanks.

 

[WoodysGirl]

I do, thanks.

Ditto that...

and the service puts 5 guys on my yard. They're done in 15 mins. lol

 

[Chief]

This is why I don't have a lawn.

I would prefer to live on a boat .... maybe someday.

Not to brag, but I have much more stamina.

My wife mows the lawn! :laugh2:

I usually mowed it on the weekends. One day she put a boat load of fertilizer on the grass and it started growing really fast. She ask me to cut it one Tuesday and I informed her that I only mow the lawn on the weekends.

I came home from work on Wednesday and it was mowed. From that point forward she always mows it. I ask her about it and she said she enjoys it. Who am I to argue that with her! :laugh2:

I mow the front yard on Saturday mornings before it gets too hot. The back is all swimming pool, palm trees and shrubs so there's nothing to mow back there. So I'm generally done start to finish in 20mins.

Damn, do you live on the 18th fairway or something?

:laugh2: Not quite. These guys have a number of yards to cut so they gotta get in and get out quickly.

The owner has drives one lawn mower on the front yard.
One guy is edging it at the same time
Another guy cuts the back yard
Another guy trims the edges around the house and my patio
And another guy cleans it up

All for $25/cut.

Be honest: do any of these guys speak English?

So you pay 125 altogether? Not bad.

Wow, thats a great deal.

I only talk to the owner who negotiates the price.

That's all I worry about.

I pay $25 total each visit. Extra $15 when they trim my hedges.

Wow, thats a great deal.

I'd say 80-90% of my neighbors all use a lawn service. We don't all use the same one, tho.

I always found it funny when I got a new neighbor and they'd cut their own grass a couple times. Few weeks later, they're using a service. Cutting grass in this Texas heat is for the birds.
