During the spring and summer months, it is necessary to mow at least every 10 days. Thus 3 times per month and usually during oppressive heat and humidity. Anyone knowing the cost of maintaining a lawn mower, sharpening blades, replacement blades for the edger and string for the string trimmer and the cost of gas to run all four devices (blower) would agree that 20 bucks a pop would be fair. So 50 bucks a month looks reasonable or 35 for villas. Now give the guy a break, he works less in the winter months to cost average the 12 month period.
Want to do it yourself??
Above items cost approx $500.00 less gas, string, edger blades. Feel better??
