Do-It-Yourself Lawn Care – Etobicoke Landscape Maintenance Options

Do-it-yourself type homeowners with a green thumb are often tempted to do all of their own lawn care and landscape maintenance. While taking care of everything yourself may save a little money, it should be carefully weighed against the value of your time and the results you achieve.

Given the presence of experienced and dependable landscaping companies in Etobicoke, it may be hard to justify doing all of your own landscaping. Even if you like working outside during summer, when it’s time for snow removal, Etobicoke has snow clearing services that will do the work for you with care and efficiency while you stay warm and dry.

How You Spend Your Time

Evaluate how you spend your time outside of work. What are your priorities, and are you able to accomplish them? If too much of your time is spent on lawn care and maintenance, you should get price quotes from local landscapers. They can handle maintenance tasks for you, and, potentially, provide tips on how to simplify your landscape to lessen needed care without losing style or function.

Areas of Expertise

We all have our own areas of expertise and things we are good at. While many of us enjoy working in our yards, sometimes we need extra help and expert advice for our landscape to look its best. Consultation from a professional landscaper can help you work more productively toward a specific goal.

If you are good at do-it-yourself backyard construction projects, you may want to work with a landscape designer to create a plan before you start work. A trained designer will often identify issues or conflicts that you have not thought of and come up with creative ways to address them. In addition, they are familiar with the latest products and know what will look best with the style of your existing home and landscape.

Your Favourite Outdoor Work

With a reliable landscape crew taking care of regular maintenance needs, you have more time to spend on your favorite outdoor projects. Spend more time in your vegetable garden, planting new perennials or lounging in a hammock. Your yard is there for you to enjoy, so your time in it should be spent doing what brings you the most satisfaction.

  • Great Service Calgary North
    As retirees who now travel, we need to be able to trust those who look after our home and yard. Kory and his staff did an amazing job, and for a very fair price. After we returned from a vacation our neighbors shared that Kory and his team completed the snow shoveling exactly as was scheduled; even on the bitterly cold days! We will continue to hire Kory each time we are on vacation.
