Wow Mark! I know for a fact that front and back yard were not easy to mow as I have mowed them many times myself. When it's that long and such a mess I would have to go over it multiple times. I don't know how you did it but it looks great! Thank you

Hire the Best Lawn Care Service in Goleta

There’s no point in living in Goleta if you don’t love the outdoors. Nestled between the Santa Ynez Mountains and the Pacific Ocean, with an abundance of vineyards, farmland, and parks, it’s no wonder this area is known as the American Riviera.

The question is, do you feel as good about being outdoors when you look at your lawn? If it needs help or if you’re just tired of sacrificing your weekends to yard work, give LawnStarter a shout. Our pros offer precision cuts and everything else your lawn needs to look its best.

Oh, and if you have questions about California’s Green Lawn Care Law, we’ve got you covered. As our Green Lawn Care Law FAQ notes, if you’re mowing with gas-powered mowers, blowers, edgers, you’ll need to replace them with battery-powered ones eventually.

Let LawnStarter’s local lawn care pros care for your yard, and don’t worry if you have the right equipment. Our pros are your neighbors. We know how to keep Golden State lawns green and lush.

Here are some of the things we know about lawn care in Goleta, and that you should know, too:

Best Grass Types for Goleta

Goleta is in the southern part of California’s transition zone. Here, both cool-season and warm-season grasses grow well. But because summers in Goleta are dry, we recommend those that also handle drought conditions. Our pros recommend:

  • Tall Fescue: This grass grows well in cooler weather and heat.
  • Perennial Ryegrass: Typically known as a cool-season variety, this fine-textured grass also does great in warm weather.
  • Zoysiagrass: It creates a dense, green carpet, is very drought-tolerant, tolerates cold, and handles foot traffic well.
  • Bermudagrass: This warm-season grass thrives in full sun and tolerates heavy foot traffic.

How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? We recommend mowing every week, but cut back to every two weeks in the mid-summer heat. Also, cut no more than one-third of the grass blade at a time.

Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Goleta

Pests and diseases can ravage grass if you don’t have a good defense, so watch out for:

  • Grubs: These larvae feed on grass roots, causing yellow patches.
  • Brown Patch: A fungal disease, it creates circular brown spots.
  • Sod Webworms: These caterpillars chew grass blades, leading to thinning.

Other Services We Offer

LawnStarter is a full-service yard care company. Our pros offer a full array of services to keep your lawn and yard looking its best, including:

  • Tree and Shrub Care: Our pros will prune, trim, and provide effective disease control.
  • Aeration: This process loosens soil to allow water and nutrients to penetrate deeply.
  • Fertilization: Our pros will feed your lawn the best blend of nutrients to keep it healthy and green year-round

Here in the home of UC Santa Barbara, we want you to be smart about lawn care. LawnStarter is a wise choice because our pros are highly skilled, experienced, and reputable.

With LawnStarter, exceptional lawn care is just a call, click, or tap on our app away. Get your free quotes today and discover how easy it is to get a great lawn in Goleta.
