Lawn Mowing Best Practices

Lawn mowing, Atlanta, GA We at Dreamscapes consider lawn mowing the finishing touch of a properly cared-for property. We only use top-of-the-line commercial equipment and employ individuals with high standards of workmanship. Our equipment is always maintained in great shape and our mower blades are kept on a consistent sharpening schedule. This allows us to ensure a worry-free experience for our customers. We take pride in completing every job efficiently while leaving your lawn properly manicured and visually appealing.

Dreamscapes crews change their blades every other day because sharp blades are very important - why?

  • They help to keep lawns looking nice and to keep their green color.

  • Shape blades make it easier on the machines, especially when mulching. They help cut grass into smaller particles for easier placement in the thatch area.

  • Dull blades cause ragged edges that weaken the plant and allow disease.

  • They reduce scalping of lawn. Tugging and pulling at the grass blades instead of a clean cut, can create bald spots and scalping.

  • It is better for our environment and reduces our carbon footprint. Since our machine work more efficiently, they use less gas and oil emitting less pollution. Also less disease and healthier grass eliminates the need for chemicals. Mulching grass clippings is recommended and reduce fertilizer needs by up to 30% to to keep grass healthy.

Lawn Mowing Done Right

Dreamscapes only uses 21" mowers on all front yards, this is our policy and we stick to it.

Dreamscapes mowing crews mow in a different direction each visit, so the grass doesn't lie one way and there is never any traffic rutting in the lawn.

A 21" mower doesn't weaken the grass in the warm months like a large heavy mower does. Using a large mower can wear the grass down by June or July. Large mowers in small yards are not a part of Dreamscapes Best Maintenance Practice.

The Highest Standards in Lawn Mowing and Grass Cutting

There is not enough room to mow in a different direction each visit causing large traffic ruts from the heavy mowers. Using large mowers in front yards and some backyards can also cause grass to thin in areas, kill the grass in traffic areas, rut the property and cause scalping. The exception is if the property includes a very large front yard and the homeowner chooses the larger cut. Large mowers also don't mow very well on slopes cutting grass unevenly. Large mowers are best used in a commercial mowing crew not in a residential garden.

Our Mowing standard and Dreamscapes’ signature is using small mowers in the front yard; this is how we are different. We use the best equipment and best practices to give you the best lawn.
