Mulching

Our mulching services help protect your landscape by retaining moisture, suppressing weeds, regulating soil temperature, and improving overall soil health. Prior to mulching, we properly prepare garden beds with spade edging and thorough weed removal to ensure clean lines and lasting results.
Mulching is typically performed twice per year, during spring (March–June) and late summer to fall (August–October). We most commonly use double-shredded hardwood mulch because it lasts longer, looks great, and supports soil health. High-quality mulch is sourced from Remington Mulch, a trusted landscaping supplier established in 1987. Other mulch options are available upon request to suit your preferences and landscape needs.

Leaf Removal Service

Our professional leaf removal service keeps your property clear and protected throughout the peak fall season. Our team removes buildup efficiently to protect your lawn and curb appeal, with services typically scheduled from late October through December and completed in two to four visits based on property needs.
For larger accumulations, we offer in-house vacuum truck removal for an additional charge based on volume. When county pickup is available, we coordinate curbside placement for municipal collection to ensure a seamless removal process. With more than 40 years of experience, Craig’s Lawn Care provides dependable seasonal service that keeps your landscape clean, healthy, and well-maintained.

Aeration & Overseeding

Our aeration and overseeding service improves lawn health by relieving soil compaction and promoting thicker, stronger turf. Core aeration allows air, water, and nutrients to reach grass roots, while overseeding fills bare and thinning areas using certified, U.S.-grown seed. Typically performed twice per year - early spring and fall - for best results.
We use professional Ryan aeration equipment and offer combined aeration and overseeding with a single machine that drops seed directly into the soil for improved germination. With 40+ years of experience, our team times each service to Northern Virginia’s growing conditions to deliver reliable, long-lasting results.

Weeding

Our weeding services involve manually removing all visible weeds from specified areas, without the use of chemicals. This service is typically added on to a mowing program and is most commonly needed during mid to late summer (July–August) when weed growth is at its peak.
Our staff are trained to identify plant types, ensuring we remove weeds carefully without disturbing desirable plants or ground cover. We take a precise, hands-on approach so beds and landscaped areas stay clean, healthy, and well-maintained. Craig’s Lawn Care provides reliable, detail-focused weeding that supports the overall health and appearance of your landscape.

Spring Clean-Ups

Our spring clean up services get your property ready for the growing season by clearing winter debris and refreshing your landscape. Services may include leaf and debris removal, weeding, pruning or trimming shrubs and trees, mowing and edging, and mulching.
Spring clean ups are most commonly performed in March and April, with service typically required two to four times per year depending on property needs. We coordinate curbside placement for county pickup when necessary and use our own trucks for efficient debris removal. Craig’s Lawn Care provides reliable spring clean ups that help restore curb appeal and support healthy growth.

Fertilizing

Our fertilizing services add essential nutrients to support healthy growth, strong roots, and vibrant color. Applications are timed seasonally, typically in spring (March), summer (June) for high-traffic areas, and fall (August–October) to prepare lawns for winter.
We coordinate fertilization through a specialized lawn treatment partner and schedule mowing accordingly, avoiding mowing immediately after treatment for best results. Craig’s Lawn Care handles the timing and coordination to keep your lawn healthy and well-maintained.

We have had Craig's Lawn care for mowing and leaf raking for over 20 years. They have always done an outstanding job. This year, the crew did an especially good job clearing our yard of leaves, then carefully mowing the entire yard to make sure that everything looked great for the winter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Landscape maintenance schedules vary based on property size, plant types, and seasonal needs. Most properties benefit from weekly lawn mowing during the growing season, along with seasonal services such as mulching, pruning, cleanups, and aeration scheduled at key times throughout the year. We assess your property and recommend a maintenance plan that keeps your landscape healthy, attractive, and easy to manage year-round.

Landscape maintenance includes lawn mowing, edging, blowing, mulching, and bed preparation; pruning and trimming of shrubs and bushes; aeration and overseeding; and landscape clean-ups, including leaf removal and spring clean-ups. Services are scheduled based on the time of year and your property’s needs to keep your landscape healthy and well-maintained.

We provide regular, scheduled visits based on your property’s needs – weekly mowing is common, with seasonal care as needed.

Mulching is most commonly performed between March and June, but it is available year-round as needed. Mulch helps retain moisture, suppress weeds, regulate soil temperature, and improve the overall appearance of plant beds.

By default, we use double-shredded hardwood mulch due to its durability and benefits for plant health. Other options such as colored mulch, pine straw, or cedar mulch are available upon request.

Yes. Before mulching, we perform bed preparation, which includes spade-edging to create clean borders and removal or treatment of visible weeds. Proper preparation ensures better results and a cleaner, longer-lasting appearance.

No. Craig’s Lawn Care does not provide fertilizer or pest control services, but we coordinate with trusted local providers to help schedule these services without conflicts.

Shrub and bush trimming is typically performed twice per year – once in late spring (May–June) and again in early fall (September–October). Trimming is also available throughout the season as needed.

Aeration and overseeding are most effective in early spring and early fall, with fall services typically beginning after Labor Day. These services help relieve soil compaction and improve lawn density over time.

We use core aeration to remove small plugs of soil, allowing air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots more easily. Grass seed is then applied so it falls into the aeration holes, resulting in better germination and a thicker lawn.

Leaf removal typically begins in late October and continues through November and December. Most properties require two to four visits, depending on leaf volume, though additional visits can be scheduled if needed.

Leaves are either placed at the curb for municipal pickup (where available) or removed using CLC’s in-house vacuum truck service. Vacuum service pricing is based on the volume of leaves and provides an efficient alternative to bagging.

Yes, Craig’s Lawn Care is fully licensed and insured.

Yes, our residential landscape maintenance services are designed to keep your lawn and gardens healthy throughout all seasons, including spring clean-ups and leaf removal in fall.
