Lawn Care Service Details
Mowing
Maintaining your grass properly is important for its health and improves the overall look of your lawn and your home. We can get the job done quickly, beautifully, and efficiently.
Why should I hire a professional to mow my lawn?
Time and Efficiency
Many homeowners feel capable of mowing on their own rather than trusting a professional. While this may be true, Rivers Lawn and Landscape has an incredibly efficient fleet of equipment and team of workers that can finish job in ½ or ⅓ the time it may take the homeowner.

Expertise
Each species of grass has an optimal height to be cut. Cutting it too short can cause it to die in the summer heat of Pageland, Lancaster, and Monroe, while cutting it too high can lead to the need to trim again in a matter of days. Rivers Lawn and Landscape is familiar with the local grasses in our area, and we will trim your grass to its optimal height for growth.
Trimming
While quality mowing is important for the overall look of your lawn, improper trimming can also draw negative attention. We pay special attention to the areas our lawn mower can’t reach.
What areas can Rivers Lawn and Landscape trim in my lawn?
You may have details in your lawn that require special attention to maintain their best look. For example, you may have obstacles such as mailboxes, trees, fences, or uneven areas that cannot be mown around easily. After mowing, we focus on detailing these areas with our trimmer to make sure no areas are missed. Rivers Lawn and Landscape also trims and prunes shrubs and hedges to keep them looking their best. These plants can become unruly, giving your lawn a messy look. Our landscaping crew has the expertise to trim your shrubs to keep them looking great.
Edging
While edging is a quick, easy task for our experienced staff and advanced equipment, this finishing touch makes a huge difference in the appearance of your home. Wouldn’t it be nice if your sidewalks had those perfect sight lines?
What are the benefits of edging?
- Edging adds detail to your lawn, outlining your sidewalks, walkways, driveway, and landscaped beds.
- Increasing your curb appeal may increase your property value. In fact, a professionally maintained lawn can lead to a return on investment of up to 352%
Blowing
No one likes the look of leaves, trimmings, or grass clippings on their lawn. Rivers Lawn and Landscape can quickly and efficiently blow away any mess we leave behind, and no one will ever know we were there. We can also clean up fall leaves and debris a lot more quickly than it can be raked.
