I just made a comment to my neighbor that we both fertilizer our own lawns (Zoysia) while many of the adjacent neighbors use a service such as Masseys, Bates, or Once a Year and the DIY lawns actually look better and greener at alot less cost. I only fertilize in spring and fall and apply weed killer when necessary.

I used a lawn service for a number of years up north and were never happy with them. Sure they come out and try and resolve your problem but when you have a big problem (like dead grass) its always YOUR problem for lack of watering or some other reason.
