      Gilbert, Arizona FAQs

      Professional lawn care services in Gilbert typically cost $50-125 per visit. Sunday's custom lawn plans start at $55 per season, with multiple shipments of fertilizer and optional add-ons like weed control and grass seed. Plans include a soil test, custom schedule, and expert support - making it a more affordable DIY alternative to traditional services.

      Look for services that understand Gilbert's unique climate and warm-season grasses like Bermuda. Key factors include proper fertilization timing, water-efficient practices, and heat-tolerant grass varieties. Consider cost, service frequency, and whether they use sustainable products that work with nature rather than harsh chemicals.

      Yes, professional lawn care can be worthwhile in Gilbert's challenging desert climate. The key is finding cost-effective solutions that work with the environment. Sunday's customized plans consider local conditions and provide expert guidance while being more affordable than traditional services that charge per visit. Plus, you learn sustainable practices for long-term lawn health.

      Focus on these key practices to maintain your lawn affordably in Gilbert:

      • Mow high (3-3.5 inches) to promote deeper roots and shade soil
      • Water deeply but infrequently in early morning to reduce evaporation
      • Test soil before fertilizing to avoid waste
      • Control weeds early through proper mowing and spot treatment
      • Follow seasonal maintenance schedule for warm-season grasses

      Here are the key lawn care best practices for Gilbert, AZ:

      • Water deeply 1-2 times per week in early morning (before 8am) to encourage deep root growth
      • Mow Bermuda grass at 1-1.5 inches height during peak growing season (summer)
      • Fertilize when grass is actively growing (March-October)
      • Overseed with winter ryegrass in October if desired for winter color
      • Monitor for common issues like grub worms and brown patch fungus
      • Aerate compacted soil annually in spring or fall
      • Control weeds through proper mowing height and spot treatment

      Water your Gilbert lawn 2-3 times per week in summer, applying 0.75-1 inch of water per session. In winter, reduce to once every 7-10 days. Water in early morning hours before 8am to minimize evaporation. Adjust frequency based on rainfall and temperatures.

      The 1/3 rule states you should never cut off more than one-third of the grass blade length in a single mowing. This maintains grass health by preventing shock and ensuring enough leaf surface for photosynthesis. Mow frequently enough to follow this guideline while maintaining your desired grass height.

      Here's how to check if your irrigation system works properly in Gilbert:

      1. Check for even water coverage using catch cups placed around your lawn
      2. Run each zone for 15 minutes and look for:
      • Broken/clogged sprinkler heads
      • Uneven spray patterns
      • Areas getting too much/little water
      • Leaks or pooling water
      1. Test during early morning to observe actual coverage
      2. Measure water output using a rain gauge or tuna can
