Bethesda has grown by over 11% in the last decade thanks to its close proximity to DC, Annapolis, and other cities that offer great universities and job opportunities. This is good news for property owners, both residential and commercial. As the population booms, there will be an increased need for rental units and office space. However, that doesn’t mean that you won’t need to maintain a competitive edge. Residential and commercial lawn care can improve your curb appeal and make your property more desirable to renters.
The question is, how do you find the best company for lawn care and landscaping services? Read on to find out.
Reputation
There’s no better way to find out about a company than word of mouth. You can always begin your search by asking other property owners in your neighborhood if they have a lawn care service they would recommend or advise you to avoid.
Client testimonials are another useful tool when vetting lawn care and landscaping companies. Are previous clients happy with the company’s customer service, prices, and results? Good reviews can increase your confidence that you’re making a good choice.
Years of Experience
Lawn care is a booming industry and new companies are starting up every year. While everyone has to start somewhere, you’re taking less of a risk when hiring a company that has years of experience behind them.
Local experience is also important when hiring a lawn care company. Professionals who work in your region possess familiarity with the kinds of plants and grass you’re likely growing as well as the impact of your regional climate. They’ll also bring to the table knowledge of any city rules and regulations regarding residential and commercial land use, so you won’t end up with landscaping that violates the city code.
Licensing and Insurance
If you’re more of a do-it-yourself kind of property owner, you may not realize the risk of hiring unlicensed and uninsured contractors. A proper license ensures that your contractor has met state and local standards to provide professional lawn care. Insurance protects you from unexpected liabilities.
Imagine that your lawn care worker gets hurt while on your property. With proper insurance, you won’t be on the hook for any related expenses. If that contractor is uninsured, however, you become responsible for all liabilities, including injuries and property damage.
