What we do

Lawn care thatactually shows

Pick one service or all of them. I do the boring foundational work right so your lawn keeps looking good between visits — even in August.

Weekly Mowing

Same morning every week. St. Augustine cut high in the Baytown heat, Bermuda kept tight — front, back, side, edged, blown clean.

starts at $45 · per visit

Edging & Trimming

Power-edged borders along walks, drives, and beds. String-trimmed around fences, A/C pads, and the live oaks.

starts at $30 · per visit

Leaf & Storm Cleanup

Pecan, live-oak, and water-oak leaves, plus whatever the last Gulf squall blew across the yard. Hauled off, not piled by the curb.

starts at $85 · per visit

Bed Maintenance

Hand-pulled weeds in beds along the foundation, perennials trimmed at the right time of year — not the calendar.

starts at $75 · per visit

Mulch Refresh

Hardwood, cedar, or pine bark — installed at the right depth so beds look fresh and weeds stay down through August.

starts at $120 · per visit

Hedge & Shrub Trimming

Ligustrum, holly, boxwood, and the oleander your neighbor lets get away from them. Shaped clean, hauled off.

starts at $65 · per visit

How it works

Three steps,no hassle

I try to make hiring me boring in the best way — predictable, quiet, easy to explain to your spouse.

  1. Walk the property

    I come out, listen to what you want, and look at what the lawn actually needs. No high-pressure quotes, no surprises — most Baytown walks take ten minutes.

  2. Quote on the spot

    Flat per-visit price the same day. That number is what shows up on the invoice — no add-ons, no fuel surcharges, no "next-week we noticed" line items.

  3. Same morning, every week

    Once we start, I show up the same morning every week. Quiet equipment, gate latched, walks blown clean. Storm weeks shift by a day — you’ll get a text.

Baytown-specific

Coastal grass plays bydifferent rules.

The bay sits about a mile from most of the houses I cut. That coastal humidity is why St. Augustine thrives here — and why brown patch, take-all root rot, and chinch bugs show up the moment a crew gets sloppy. Most of what looks like a "bad lawn" in Baytown is really just bad mow technique meeting Gulf air.

  • 1

    Cut high, cut weekly.

    St. Augustine wants 3.5 to 4 inches in summer. Bi-weekly cuts mean scalping, which means brown patch by July.

  • 2

    Blow off — don't mulch — wet clippings.

    Baytown mornings stay damp until 10am. Mulched clippings pack into thatch and feed fungus. I bag or blow when it's wet.

  • 3

    Watch for chinch bugs in August.

    Brown sun-shaped patches that won't green up after rain are usually chinch bugs, not drought. I'll flag it before it spreads.

  • 4

    Storm-prep matters more than the mow.

    Loose pecan limbs and palm fronds become missiles in a Gulf squall. I clear before I cut, especially June through October.

A typical front yard, east side of the bay

Almost every Baytown yard I cut has roughly this shape — house pulled forward, live oak shedding all year on the west side, crepe myrtle holding the corner, and a damp band of St. Augustine where the morning shade lifts last. That damp band is where brown patch starts. Cutting it right is most of the job.

The route

East side of the bay,one truck, eight towns.

I keep the route tight on purpose — Baytown out to Mont Belvieu and Highlands, then south across the channel into La Porte and Deer Park. No cross-Houston freeway runs. That’s why your yard gets the same morning every week and why the price stays where it is.

In their words

What customers say

A few of the long-time Baytown and Mont Belvieu folks who put up with me showing up the same morning every week — rain, shine, or Gulf squall.

Affordable price and fast, friendly service. Alex showed up within the hour to give me a quote and had the yard done the same afternoon. Dependable, reasonable, and the lines are sharp.

Hidden gem for the Baytown and Crosby areas. Same day every week, never had to chase him down, and he spotted a sprinkler head I had broken before I even knew about it.

Marcos D.

via Nextdoor

Hired Alex after Hurricane Beryl took down a third of our pecan tree. He cleared the branches, cut around the wreckage, and had the yard back to normal by Friday. Solid work for what he charged.
