Lawn Mowing Service

We mow all open grass areas, string trim any areas the mower cannot reach, edge all sidewalks/driveways, and blow off any resulting debris that may have ended up on to porches, stairs, etc.
We don’t leave any clumps or leave any lawn with an uneven cut. If a drought hits we may skip your yard if there is no noticeable growth.

Pine Straw Service

One of the many things we love about the local landscapes is how we see pine straw being used as the preferred mulch material. We think it looks great and can really make your landscape pop! It offers all of the same benefits are wood mulches such as weed suppression and moisture retention, but does not attract nearly as many insects.

Landscape Maintenance

Maintaining the lawn and landscape has never been easier. No more physical labor in the yard for you! Simply contact us and let us know what you need done. We are happy to provide you with our quote to prune your shrubs or crepe myrtles, pick up fallen limbs and other debris, or remove the weeds or leaves from your lawn and landscape.

Crepe Myrtle Care

We are experts when it comes to caring for crepe myrtles. We have been working with the crepe myrtles for years and know how to properly them properly to leave them looking great and not cause any damage to the plants. If you want your crepes to look their very best, have them ‘properly’ pruned!

Leaf Pick Up

We have to admit the leaves do look great as they turn shades of orange and yellow as winter approaches. It is stunning, but quickly becomes a nuisance when they fall from the trees. We are already removing your neighbors, we would be happy to pick your leaves up too.

1-Time Mowing

Freshly mowed lawn looking well-cared for.

We do offer 1-time mowing services starting at $85 due to the administrative costs of setting up an account for a single service. But, we know sometimes you get in a pinch and we are happy to assist if you would like us to.

F.A.Q.’s

About our Lawn Service

How much are your lawn care services?

Every lawn and landscape is just a little different! Please contact us and we are more than happy to check out your lawn or landscape as soon as possible or schedule a time to meet you there at your convenience.

Do you have proper business licensing and insurance?

Yes, we do! We are licensed and insured to perform lawn and landscape services in Alabama. If you would like a copy of our business license and our insurance policy please ask and we will email it over immediately.

What are the payment options for your lawn services?

We accept all major credit cards, money orders, and cash.

When would we need to pay for our lawn care or landscaping service?

All payments are due at the time of service. If you are not going to be home during the time of service, you have the option to pre-pay, leave a payment somewhere on your property for us to collect while there, or you can have us securely hold your credit card on file and we will automatically bill you once you have approved our work.

When did you start your lawn care business?

Mowing Lawns Properly officially started offering lawn care and landscaping services in 2012. We had been doing it on the side for years before forming the official business.

What is included in your lawn mowing service?

We run the mowers over your lawn getting a nice, clean, even cut on all of the open grass areas. We trim around edges and obstacles with a string trimmer and edge off hard surface borders such as walkways, driveways, and patios to give them that finished, manicured look. Once all mowing, trimming, and edging has been completed, we blow off the grass clippings leaving your lawn looking amazing!

You can learn mowing about our Birmingham-Hoover Metro Area lawn mowing service and our other lawn and landscape service on our lawn services page.

How often do you cut the grass?

Weekly or every other week. If your lawn is getting too long between cuts on an every other week schedule we will need to bump it up to weekly service until the grass growth speed slows down or charge an additional fee to make it look good before leaving. We won't leave your lawn not looking great. Thanks for understanding!

What if my grass didn't grow and my next lawn mowing is coming up very soon?

We don't even want to run our mowers over a lawn that doesn't need to be cut. If we are experiencing a drought, or the grass growth rate slows down for any other reason such as the season, we will simply skip that week's service and you will not be billed.

What if it literally rains all week long?

We certainly don't want to damage your lawn by attempting to mow it when the ground is still soft from a large amount of rainfall. We have been cutting grass for a long time and will use our best judgment and communicate well with you if and when this situation arises.

At what height do you mow the grass?

Lawn mowing best practices recommend to not remove more than 1/3 of the length of the grass blade at a time. We follow this recommendation. If you think we are cutting your lawn to high or too short, please just let us know. We are happy to adjust our mowers per your request.

If your lawn does have slopes, we may be limited to how low we can cut the grass due to the commercial mower deck size.
