LAWN MAINTENANCE

Complete Lawn Maintenance for St. Charles Properties

A healthy, well-maintained property requires consistent attention as conditions change throughout the year.

Spring brings winter debris, untidy planting beds, and new weed growth. During summer, grass, bushes, plants, and weeds can grow quickly. Fall brings leaves, plant debris, and the need to prepare the property for winter.

Ware Landscaping provides an organized lawn maintenance program that addresses these seasonal needs.

Our St. Charles lawn maintenance services can include:

  • Weekly lawn mowing
  • Grass trimming around obstacles
  • Power edging along sidewalks
  • Driveway and walkway cleanup
  • Weekly flower bed maintenance
  • Routine weeding
  • Bush and plant trimming
  • Spring lawn cleanup
  • Organic fertilizer applications
  • Targeted weed treatment
  • Grub control
  • Fall leaf cleanup
  • Seasonal landscape care
  • Optional winter snow removal

We maintain more than the grass. Our team cares for the visible areas that contribute to the overall appearance of your property.

LAWN MAINTENANCE

The Ware Weekly Cleanup and Lawn Maintenance Program

Ware Landscaping provides one complete maintenance program for homeowners and property managers who want ongoing lawn and landscape care.

The Ware Weekly Cleanup combines recurring mowing with flower bed care, weeding, trimming, fertilization, and seasonal cleanup services.

The program includes five core parts:

  1. Spring cleanup
  2. Weekly mowing and edging
  3. Weekly flower bed cleanup and gardening
  4. Organic fertilizer, weed control, and grub control
  5. Two fall cleanups

Every part of the program works together to keep your property clean and maintained throughout the season.

Weekly Lawn Mowing and Edging

Regular mowing supports a cleaner, more consistent lawn appearance throughout the growing season.

Our weekly lawn service includes more than moving a mower across the property. During a typical mowing visit, our team can:

  • Mow the lawn with professional equipment
  • Use grass catchers where appropriate
  • Trim grass around trees, beds, fences, and landscape features
  • Power edge along sidewalks
  • Clean grass clippings from driveways and walkways
  • Check maintained areas for visible weeds and overgrowth

Mowing is normally completed weekly when the grass is actively growing. Service may be adjusted when weather, ground conditions, or grass growth make mowing unnecessary or harmful to the lawn.

The result is a more even, polished lawn without leftover clippings covering your hard surfaces.

Weekly Flower Bed Cleanup and Gardening

Many lawn companies mow the grass and leave. They do not address the flower beds, weeds, bushes, or plants that affect how the whole property looks.

The Ware Weekly Cleanup includes recurring flower bed and landscape bed maintenance.

While our crew is on the property, we can:

  • Remove visible weeds from flower beds
  • Maintain clean, defined bed edges
  • Trim bushes and plants as needed
  • Remove light landscape debris
  • Address visible overgrowth
  • Clean around trees and landscape features
  • Keep garden and planting areas tidy

Weekly attention helps prevent weeds and overgrowth from taking over between major seasonal cleanups.

This detailed care is one of the main differences between Ware Landscaping and a mowing-only lawn service.

What people are saying

Ware Landscaping & Snow Removal

They did a great job and we are very pleased!

“I contacted Mike at Ware Landscaping for help with fixing my flooded backyard and garage. Mike gave me an honest assessment of my situation and recommended the right system to fix my problems (a lot of issues). Ware Landscaping installed drainage, underground downspouts, underground sump pump lines, driveway drains and surface drains in the yard to fix all my problems.. The team was very professional and always asked for my approval on work being done before it was completed. They did a great job and we are very pleased!”

I recommend him without any hesitation.

“We had a water problem in our basement that Mike Ware completely eliminated by removing both our sump pump water and downspout water away from the home. He was professional and highly motivated to solve the problem and do it the right way. I always felt like a priority and that my project mattered. I recommend him without any hesitation.”

FANTASTIC JOB!!!

Ware Landscaping did a FANTASTIC JOB!!! I needed my entire backyard regraded and they filled it in with more than 2 truck loads, installed a French drain and put new beautiful green sod on top. They also power washed and reset my front retaining wall. Communication from the beginning was always very good. We always knew when they were coming out. The project was completed on time as well. They also called on their own a month after the project to check on the sod and were willing to replace some spots due to the June heat wave. Would recommend Ware Landscaping to all!!!”

Dan Malloy

The entire crew were incredible, so friendly, knowledgeable, and paid attention to every detail.

“Mike, Greg and the rest of the crew made our back yard dream a reality with a drainage system to remove the stream that flowed through the middle of the yard, which flooded every rainstorm and stuck around for weeks. To complete the look in came a perfectly designed beautiful hardscape patio that we can’t wait to use this summer. The entire crew were incredible, so friendly, knowledgeable, and paid attention to every detail. Highly recommend!”

Katie Jankowski

The crew was fast, friendly, and tidy.

“We had a wooden deck for a front porch that was starting to age. When we removed it we saw that there was a concrete slab underneath it that was pitched toward our house, creating an issue with standing water up against our foundation. We had Mike come by to advise us on the best solution, and he suggested permeable pavers. We were able to come up with a custom design with him that day. The crew was fast, friendly, and tidy. I’m sure they do much bigger jobs than our little patio, but this project made a huge difference for our home.
