Alex actually takes the time to do the job right, which I appreciate. From the first day Alex has been professional and reliable. He treats my yard with care even down to the edging around the fences. The yard looks great with stripes going both ways, and an even uniform cut. Alex takes pride in his work, which seems hard to find these days.

De Soto lawns, Iowa weather
De Soto's a mix of in-town quarter-acre lots and rural acreages with much more land to keep up. For acreages we mow only the manicured zone (around the house, drives, and outbuildings) rather than going wall-to-wall. That keeps the cost reasonable and lets you decide later whether you want extended areas mowed too.
Services in De Soto
Same six services. Run from Adel.
Weekly Mowing
Crisp stripes, hard edges, same day every week. Same Alex on the mower, mulch by default, bag on request.
Lawn Treatments
Four Iowa-tuned rounds, soil-temperature-timed. Color by Memorial Day, dense roots by November.
Shrub & Bush Trimming
Hand shears for the finish, power trimmers for the bulk. No ragged edges, every clipping hauled.
Property Cleanups
Every leaf in the truck, no piles at the curb. Spring and fall, often two visits each season.
Core Aeration
Iowa clay broken up in a two-pass cross-pattern. Pair with overseeding for thicker turf next spring.

2-inch trigger, automatic dispatch, seasonal contract. Cleared before your morning coffee.
De Soto questions.
Do you serve rural acreages outside De Soto city limits?
Yes. We mow rural properties out toward Earlham, Redfield, and along Highway 169 south. Just give us your address and we'll quote it.
Are you faster to respond than the big Des Moines services?
Almost always. We're 10 minutes away, not 30, and our route is small enough that we can squeeze in extras when something comes up.
Do you offer one-time mowings or only weekly contracts?
Both. One-time cleanups and one-off mows are common for De Soto rentals and second homes. Just specify on the quote form.
