Texarkana's Lawn Care Pros

For Commercial and Residential

What is good lawn maintenance?

There's more to maintaining a beautiful lawn than just keeping it cut. Let's start with the basics. How low should you cut your grass? The length you cut your lawn will depend on the type of grass you have. Bermuda, for instance, should be around 2-2.5 inches in the summer to protect against the heat. Kentucky Bluegrass and St. Augustine should be cut a little longer at 2-3.5 inches..  Grass cut can be lowered in the fall to prepare it for winter.

Another important part of having a lush lawn is the direction you mow it. Mowing direction should be alternated with each cut for healthier growth and a more manicured appearance. Cutting the same direction each time can cause grass blades to bend and lean, which could lead to damage and brown spots.
