Most residential and commercial properties benefit from weekly mowing during the growing season to maintain optimal lawn health and appearance. Biweekly service works well during slower growth periods or for properties with less foot traffic. At Sanders Landscaping & Maintenance, we adjust mowing frequency based on seasonal growth patterns in Stockbridge, GA.

Professional lawn mowing includes mowing at the proper height, edging along walkways and driveways, weed eating in hard-to-reach areas, and leaf cleanup as needed. These combined services create a polished, well-maintained appearance for your property.

Gravel driveway installation starts with proper site preparation, followed by filling with quality gravel material, smoothing to create an even surface, and finishing to ensure durability and proper drainage. The preparation phase is critical for preventing ruts and maintaining the driveway's longevity over time.

Landscape installation costs depend on project scope, materials selected, site conditions, and services required such as sod, irrigation systems, tree installations, or flower bed creation. Complex irrigation systems and mature trees typically increase overall investment compared to basic mulch or pine straw applications.

Fertilizer application timing depends on grass type and seasonal growth cycles, with most lawns benefiting from treatments in spring and fall. Combining fertilization with weed control services helps maintain a healthy, weed-free lawn throughout the year.

Sod provides instant lawn coverage with immediate results and erosion control, while seed requires weeks to establish and careful watering. Sod installation works especially well in Georgia's climate for quick landscape transformations and areas needing immediate stabilization.

Land preparation involves clearing overgrown vegetation, removing debris, and grading to create proper drainage and level surfaces. Professional grading ensures your property is ready for new projects like driveways, patios, or landscape installations without future settling or drainage issues.

Proper drainage prevents water pooling, erosion, and rut formation that can damage your gravel driveway over time. During installation, grading and finishing techniques ensure water flows away from the surface, extending the life of your driveway and reducing maintenance needs.

Seasonal landscape maintenance includes pruning in late winter, spring cleanup and debris removal, summer irrigation checks, and fall leaf management. Year-round care keeps plants healthy, prevents overgrowth, and maintains your property's appearance through Georgia's changing seasons.

Most trees benefit from trimming and pruning during their dormant season, typically late winter, to promote healthy growth and reduce disease risk. Regular pruning maintains tree structure, removes hazardous branches, and improves overall safety for residential and commercial properties.

Irrigation systems deliver consistent, measured watering that promotes deeper root growth and healthier landscapes compared to manual watering. Properly maintained sprinkler systems ensure your lawn, flower beds, and trees receive adequate moisture year-round, especially during Georgia's hot, dry summers.

The biggest mistake is applying weed control treatments inconsistently or at the wrong time, allowing weeds to establish deep root systems. Professional weed control combines proper timing, targeted treatments, and fertilization to prevent weeds while strengthening your lawn's natural defenses.
