Shaping Your Outdoors. Surpassing Expectations.
Maintain a neat yard on an every-other-week schedule that suits shadier Northwest lots and slower-growing turf.
Many Puget Sound properties sit under fir canopy or on north-facing slopes where grass grows more slowly, making a fourteen-day cycle a sensible and budget-friendly fit. We adjust cutting height slightly higher on the off-weeks so the lawn never gets scalped when growth catches up. Because two weeks of Northwest moisture can produce heavy clippings, we double-cut or bag as needed to avoid smothering clumps that invite disease. This cadence keeps shaded and lightly used lawns looking cared for without paying for cuts the grass doesn't need.
Cost-effective cadence for slower-growing shaded lawns; Higher cut height that prevents scalping between visits; Double-cutting to manage heavy fortnight growth; Edge trimming and hardscape blow-off every service; Flexible upgrade to weekly during the spring flush
1) Evaluate sun exposure and growth rate to confirm biweekly fits; 2) Schedule a set every-other-week day on our route; 3) Mow at a slightly taller height and manage heavier clippings; 4) Edge, trim, and clear debris from paths and drives
Property size and mowing area; Sun exposure and resulting growth rate; Terrain, slope, and equipment access; Clipping volume and disposal method; Optional edging, trimming, or seasonal add-ons
Biweekly works well spring through fall for shaded lots, though we recommend switching to weekly during the vigorous May-to-June growth spike.
