Lawn maintenance
 
We will be closing on our new home in Sanibel in January :) We would welcome recommendations for a lawn service and pest control company. Looking forward to our first Fl winter.

Could you explain irrigation service. Thanks.

We use KB Lawn service. They do everything outside. As far as your irrigation, if there is a problem with your sprinklers, they will come out and adjust the heads if you aren't getting the coverage you need. We had to have them come to our previous house and they changed some of the inserts to give better coverage. We had them at the last house and now here also.

mulligan 12-31-2011 03:20 PM

They run each zone to see that each head puts out the right volume, and you get complete coverage. also, you get 2 free emergency sprinkler repair calls/year, and they will repair anything they happen to damage with the mowers.

How about a pest control company and is it necessary. Thanks again.

lawn service
 
Stellar is THE BEST!!!!! BUY A BUNDLE & save $!

SgtJohn 01-02-2012 07:32 PM

What is the average cost for a "Bundle" from Steller ?

The Village Girl 01-03-2012 02:53 PM

Another vote for Stellar! Great to work with. :coolsmiley:

You can't go wrong with Stellar.

kathyzapp 01-03-2012 03:27 PM

We live in Sanibel and use Stellar. Another satisfied customer.

graciegirl 03-01-2012 01:00 PM

I heard from someone who uses Stellar that a bundle is $1900 a year. Is that correct? It includes cutting, edging, trimming, and maintainance of sprinklers and two power washings of home. I am not sure if I remembered all of it, OR remembered it correctly.

Interested in knowing because we are looking too.

Please tell me the lawn service that you are using if you like them...

Another big recommendation for Stellar. He advertises on here and does it all..if you are not happy with something he or one of this tecs will be there in a flash to help you. Can not say enough good things about them. They do all outside maintenance as well as inside and outside pest control.

Also includes fertilizing and pest control. He has lots of different packages available.

His website, StellarResidential.org has a full description of services and prices. I haven't used him yet but he's on my short list based on recs on TOTV.

graciegirl 03-01-2012 03:55 PM

I would like to hear about someone else too.

JohnN 03-01-2012 07:14 PM

I do my own pest control and it takes $10 and 10 minutes every few months.
There are a lot fewer bugs around here than you'd expect, I think the 10 million geckos eat 'em up.

Some people have pest control, but I don't really see the need, just IMHO.
Then again, I'm pretty much a do-it-yourself sort.

CarGuys 03-01-2012 08:50 PM

Stellar
 
Stellar is taking good care of us while we away. He even came over to meet with us when we visited last week.

There are several good companies. Its a what you feel good with thing!

We felt good with Stellar. And my lawn is looking greener than the rest.

jblum315 03-01-2012 09:54 PM

I just signed up with Stellar after 2 years with 2 different companies. Stellar has given me so much attention. The owner came over to say hello. I really feel pampered and I think my lawn does too.
