Although most people do tend to do some of the general maintenance on their lawns themselves, this work is not for everybody. Whether you have difficult family schedules, a heavy work schedule, or you just don't feel you have the expertise, hiring a Reno lawn maintenance company might fit the bill. When you are looking for landscape maintenance contractors to work on your property, here are some of the essential qualities that you should look for. Fully Licensed and Insured One of the most important things to look for when you are shopping for a new lawn care company is a current and up-to-date license and complete insurance. In the event that the contractor or one of his or her employees is injured on your property, a current and up-to-date insurance policy will protect you from liability from that accident. An up-to-date license shows you that they are in good standing with local and state regulations and certifications if necessary. Customer Service Oriented You should also make sure that you work with a company who has a track record of providing excellent customer service. This means that you work with a company who is communicative with you and is available to you in case you have questions about the project or need information. Courteous and Respectful Take care to work with a company who is at all times respectful of you and your property. This means leaving the property free of debris such as grass clippings and dirt after they leave. It also means that they arrive on time to the property, whether that be for an estimate or regular maintenance. Fully Equipped The last thing that you want when you are hiring a landscape contractor is for a company to show up with a pickup truck, containing only a lawn mower and maybe a hedge trimmer in the back. You likely have these items as well and probably want your contractor to do a little bit extra beyond the basic mowing and trimming that you can likely do yourself. Make sure that they have all of the equipment to do a thorough and complete job. Knowledgeable When looking for a lawn care company, you can usually spot a good one if they are able to provide you with guidance and advice about your property specifically. Different climates and soil properties will mean that certain vegetation and plants will thrive at your home in your neighborhood, whereas others will not do as well. Work with a landscape contractor that is knowledgeable and experienced in the area to end up with plants that thrive and are well taken care of. Professional Be sure to work with a company that is always professional. This means that they provide a written contract for any work to be provided. A written contract will protect you as well as the lawn company in the event of a default on either side. If you are hesitant to sign a contract right away, ask the contractor if they offer a trial period. This will help you get a feel for their services and professionalism before you sign on the dotted line. Provides Excellent Value Finally, make sure that you work with a company who can provide you with great services at a great price. When you are looking for estimates for the work that you need done, whether you have a large project or just need ongoing maintenance, be careful not to choose a Reno Lawn Maintenance contractor based solely on price. With lawn care, as with anything else, you will get what you pay for. Look for a contractor that provides a great value and excellent service.
