If you're hiring for landscaping work in Lexington, focus on three things: check the license at dpor.virginia.gov, get at least three written estimates (pricing spreads are wider than homeowners expect), and read the 1-star reviews — they tell you more about the operation than the 5-stars do.

How to Hire a Lawn Care in Lexington
Finding a reliable lawn care in Lexington, VA starts with understanding what drives costs and quality in the Independent City area. We've compiled 9 verified professionals to help you compare.
Key Cost Factors
- Lawn size: A typical quarter-acre lot in a Charlottesville subdivision costs $35-$55 per mow, while half-acre to full-acre properties in rural Albemarle County run $60-$120. Most companies measure using satellite imagery and quote accordingly.
- Service frequency: Weekly mowing during the growing season (April-October in Virginia) costs less per visit than bi-weekly because the grass is shorter and easier to cut. Weekly contracts average $35-$55/visit versus $50-$75 for bi-weekly.
- Treatment type: Basic mowing-only service is the cheapest option. Adding fertilization ($50-$80 per application, 4-6x/year), weed control ($40-$60 per application), and aeration with overseeding ($150-$350 annually) can triple the annual cost but produces a dramatically healthier lawn.
- Lawn condition: A well-maintained lawn is quick to mow and needs standard care. An overgrown or neglected lawn requires a higher first-mow fee ($75-$150), and lawns with bare patches or heavy weed coverage need renovation programs costing $500-$1,500 to restore over one or two growing seasons.
Tips for Hiring
- Get at least 3 written estimates before deciding
- Verify licensing through Virginia DPOR (Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation)
- Ask for proof of insurance and bonding
- Check online reviews on multiple platforms
- Ask for references from recent jobs in the Lexington area
