Some rates are determined by the size of the lawn; mowing, fertilizing, etc. So we would need to measure the lawn size with an on-line measuring tool we use.

As you would expect, lawn size will determine the exact rate for several services, such as; mowing, fertilizing, aerating, power raking, etc. Some services are set rates, some are by the hour, and some are determined by the amount of product that may be needed.

• Landscaping: “From Dirt to Done” we do any and all types of landscaping.
• Mowing:***see below for special mowing.
  • Weekly; Rates start at $35, except for homes that have a small front yard only. Rate is determined on size, and any difficulties (hills, extra trimming needed, etc)
  • Bi-Weekly; Rates are generally 1.5 times the weekly rate. However, we do not go with bi-weekly mowing if you have an active sprinkler system.
  • Field / Prairie Grass Mowing; Determined by the size of the area.
  • Vacation Mowing: We are happy to mow your lawn while you are on vacation as long as you have kept it mowed until then. If not, see One-Time.
  • ***One-Time Mowing or First time mowing after May 1st: $150/hr due to they tend to be very long and has a lot of grass to bag and dispose of. If it isn’t long, it won’t take long and would simply end up being the normal rate.
• Fertilizing–100% Organic: Starting at $85 per application, rates are determined by lawn size.
• Revive: $65 and up
• Aerating: $60 and up.
• Power Raking: $150 and up.
• Over-Seeding: $75 and up for covering the whole lawn. Performed only with aerating or if ground is bare
• Cleanups—-Spring & Fall : This year we will charge by the number of crew members working on the job. $125/hr for crew chief, $75/hr for each crew member. There will be a half hour minimum. Rates include the fees for disposal, we only charge for the time we are on-site, no trip charges.
  • Fall **It is difficult to really give an accurate estimate, but most Fall Cleanups take 1/2 to 1 hour with 4 – 6 people each time we do it and we do fall cleanups 2 or 3 times to gather the leaves as they fall—if we waited until they all fall we would never get done before the snows come.
  • Spring Cleanups, on average, take 1-2 hours and can take up to 4-5 hours or more for the bigger properties that have many shrubs/ornamental grasses to trim/cut down in the spring. Spring cleanups take longer due to the removal of dead material and the trimming of shrubs and Ornamental Grasses…

• Snow Removal:
  • Shoveling:
    • Normal Rate; $50 – $150 for shoveling each normal snowfall up to 3″…price is dependent on size of driveway and/or sidewalk areas to clear. Some customers want this service after only a minor amount if the weather is cold….We do all of our customers with north facing houses even if it is 1/2″ or so because it will end up icing up if it is not cleared causing ‘spalling’ of the concrete. Some only want it if it is 2″ or more. We start after 3-4″ has fallen if more snowfall is predicted. ***We could come out 2 or 3 times on a particular big snowfall event.
