I couldn't be more impressed with the results. Michael's attention to detail resulted in an impeccable lawn that exceeded my expectations. He took the time to clean up meticulously afterward, leaving my lawn looking pristine. I highly recommend Michael for anyone seeking top-notch lawn care service.

Professional Lawn Care in Cedar Falls

If there’s one thing for sure, Midwesterners are always prepared for weather changes, dressing in layers and keeping umbrellas and ice scrapers at hand. But what about our lawns? Navigating lawn maintenance in Cedar Falls means being ready for anything the weather throws your way, from sudden downpours to surprise snow storms. 

LawnStarter connects you to expert, affordable lawn care services tailored to Northeastern Iowa's ever-changing climate. Whether it's expert mowing and trimming, effective drainage for Cedar Fall's clay soils, or professional aeration to prep for snow, our pros have all the bases covered.

Here’s what lawn care in Cedar Falls looks like:

About Your Grass

Cedar Falls’ "transition zone" climate enables you to grow both cool-season and warm-season grasses, each thriving during different parts of the year. Common varieties include: 

  • Kentucky bluegrass: This cool-season grass produces a lush, velvety carpet that bounces back from wear and tear. Fertilize it well and mow it between 2.5 and 3.5 inches.
  • Tall fescue: This cool-season cultivar tolerates heat and drought better than KBG, and its deep root system helps it survive Cedar Falls’ harsh winters. Mow it to 2 inches.
  • Perennial ryegrass: This fast-germinating cool-season grass quickly fills in bare patches and offers a vibrant green lawn. Mow it between 1.5 and 2.5 inches.
  • Zoysiagrass: This warm-season turfgrass has good weed resistance and heat tolerance but goes dormant in cool weather. Mow it between 1 and 2 inches and watch out for thatch buildup.

How often should you mow your lawn? It's best to mow cool-season grasses every week during their active growing seasons (spring and fall). For warm-season varieties, stick to a weekly mow during the hotter summer months.

Other Outdoor Services We Offer

LawnStarer Pros are ready to tackle more than just grass blades. We offer a wide range of outdoor services, including:  

  • Storm cleanup: We'll clear fallen branches, debris, and storm damage so you can get back to enjoying your backyard haven.
  • Bush trimming: Keep your bushes happy, healthy, and neat with our expert trimming services.
  • Landscaping: Are you ready for something new? We’ll refresh your landscape design with mulch, garden beds, and paths.

With LawnStarter handling the dirty work, you can finally visit the Ice House Museum or spend more time with your family. Download our app, click, or call to hire a LawnStarter pro today.

Reclaim your time. No matter your lawn care or landscaping needs, you’ll always get them fast and at an affordable price with LawnStarter.

Shawn was able to make it out to do the mowing despite very difficult conditions with construction nearby. I feel like he went to extra mile when others would have deemed it too difficult or too much of an annoyance to take care of. Good work
