As far as mowing it’s a mystery. The big mowers tear up the lawn if it’s wet and trying to find an individual who will mow with a push mower has proven taxing.
This is the first time in my life that anyone other than me mowed my lawn. The pros will, cannot afford to do the kind of care you would do. Mow once a week? You are not supposed to cut off more than 1/3 of the lawn length. At times that means mowing twice a week. With their volume, the blades probably need to be sharpened once or twice a week. Cleaning the mower between lawns to prevent spreading weeds, insects, disease-of course not.
