Photo of Ms H.'s yard after getting lawn care in Durham, NC
They were very nice, very polite and very respectful. He came and asked questions on how I wanted the yard to be done and then he did exactly what we discussed. I would recommend him to anyone that I know because he is very professional very polite and gets the job done in a timely fashion without incident. He has a very enthusiastic personality and his work ethic is professional, which most homeowners will welcome. I will ask him anytime to come and cut my grass or he is welcome anytime to come and cut my grass. Thank you for your service.

Tony did a great job cutting my lawn. This is the second or third time he has been out to my home and I just appreciate the attention to detail that he takes when doing his job. We actually got to speak to each other this time and he was very kind and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend him for future reference to anyone that is looking for a lawn care professional. Thank you again Tony!!!

The line was very well cut, it really made the appearance of the house significantly improved. They also picked up their clippings, and the edging looked great also. I appreciated the timeliness of the service, and the price is fantastic for the value. I will absolutely be using these guys again for my lawn care, and appreciate that they take that extra chore/hassle off my plate while also keeping my house looking good!

Easy, Affordable Lawn Care Services in Durham

Durham is home to Duke University, one of the most prestigious universities in the world. In fact, we ranked Sarah P Duke gardens as one of the best-landscaped colleges on the east coast. Durham also offers great nightlife, wonderful beer, and southern cuisine.

One thing’s for sure: you shouldn’t worry about your lawn when there’s so much to enjoy. LawnStarter's pros will treat your lawn to keep it green and healthy. Need landscaping or lawn aeration done? We do that too.

Common Grass Types in Durham: The top five most common grass types in Durham are Bermudagrass, tall fescue, perennial ryegrass, Zoysiagrass, and Kentucky bluegrass.

Spring Lawn Care Tips for Durham: Tune up your lawnmowers, leaf blowers, and hedge trimmers. Clean your yard of debris, including branches, twigs, pet waste, and leaves. Make sure your soil is healthy by aerating it, removing weeds, and carefully fertilizing it.

Fall Lawn Care Tips for Durham: Don’t fertilize, as grass should only be fertilized when it's actively growing, and the grass goes dormant before the winter season. For the same reason, don’t water your lawn. Some weeds, like Florida betony and wild onion, grow in the winter, so be sure to check your garden for weeds.

Common Lawn Pests: Grubs, sod webworms, cutworms, ants, ticks, aphids, mole crickets, spittlebugs, and chinch bugs are the pests you need to watch out for in your Durham lawn.

Common Lawn Diseases: Dollar spot, brown patch, large patch, and fairy ring cause discoloration in your lawn. If you notice any areas of your lawn that are turning brown or yellow, treat them right away. And if you need a hand, our pros will identify and treat the lawn disease for you.

How LawnStarter Can Take Care of Your Lawn: In addition to landscaping, lawn aeration, and mowing, we offer cleanups, fertilization, mulching, pool cleaning, and patio work.

Durham is one of the nation’s fastest-growing college towns with lots to do. So go out and enjoy what Durham has to offer. Don’t worry about the lawn; just call, click, or download our app, and we’ll take it from there.

Kim P.'s turf maintenance service result
Jason and his team member (sorry can't remember name, Couch) did an exceptional job!! They were not aware of property size and showed up with two push mowers, definitely takes zero turn, but these two were committed, detailed, thoughtful and mindful not to get clippings in koi pond! After the huge project, they still made sure to edge and blow surfaces, so everything looked perfect! They ended making sure i was happy; exceptional job gentlemen!! Thank you!

Charles is the kind of landscaper you wish you found years ago. He’s consistent, professional, and takes pride in his work — even if it’s “just mowing the lawn,” he treats it like a craft. My yard has never looked sharper. He’s quick, clean, and dependable, and I never have to second-guess whether the job will be done right. Highly recommend him if you want your yard looking fresh and taken care of without any hassle.

It started off rough, he blocked my drive way and my son had to ask him to.kove so he could go to work. He did move the trailer right away and we have no ther complaints. The grass looks much better and I look forward to working with this company for the remainder of the season. Perfect price point and service was great, we received discounts and promotions so that made it easier to decide on this company. Great job
