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.

Lawn Care in Waukee, Iowa.
Waukee has been one of the fastest-growing towns in Iowa for a decade, and a lot of those new builds came with sod that's now four or five years old and starting to thin out. We help Waukee homeowners get their lawns thick and even again, with weekly mowing that doesn't scalp, a four-round treatment program that handles dandelions and crabgrass, and core aeration in the fall to undo the soil compaction that comes with new construction.

Local angle
Waukee lawns, Iowa weather
Waukee soils tend to be heavily compacted clay subsoil from grading during construction, which is why so many newer Waukee lawns struggle with thin spots and drainage issues. Aeration is non-negotiable here. We recommend at least one fall aeration per year for any lawn under 10 years old, and overseeding right after to fill in the bare patches.

Waukee questions.
Do you serve all of Waukee?
Yes, both sides of Hickman, all the way out to the new neighborhoods near the high school. If you have a Waukee mailing address, we can quote you.
My HOA requires a specific mowing height. Can you accommodate?
Of course. We tune deck height per property and can lock in any height between 2.5 and 4 inches. Just let us know what your HOA wants when you fill out the quote form, or we'll match what your previous service was doing.
How quickly can you start in Waukee?
Typically within a week. Waukee is one of our heavier route days so we'll fit you onto an existing route to keep your weekly day consistent.
