A well-groomed and properly maintained landscaping design can make your home as beautiful on the outside as it is on the inside. According to Ruby Home, most U.S. homeowners pay between $100 and $200 monthly for landscaping maintenance services. When you have a beautiful landscape but don't have time to maintain it, you can hire a local company to do it for you. Here are four services that a local landscaping company can help you with.

1. Keep Lawn Healthy and Lush

The service most homeowners commonly obtain from professional landscaping services is lawn maintenance. The contractor can mow your lawn, fertilize it, and ensure it's getting plenty of water. If the maintenance crew identifies a problem, the landscaper can take care of it to help ensure your lawn stays healthy and lush. The crew also might trim your hedges and do other common maintenance to keep your property looking its best.

2. Fix and Maintain Hardscaping

You might have a patio, retaining wall, or other hardscaping that helps shape your property. Such hardscaping features require maintenance and sometimes repairs due to weather, the change in seasons, and other factors that commonly affect your home's landscaping. The maintenance and repairs help keep your hardscaping looking and working great for many years.

3. Plant Flowers and Shrubs

A major part of designing quality and beautiful landscaping around your home includes the flowers and shrubs you have planted. When you work with professionals, they can help you select the right plants based on the climate you live in, and they'll plant them for you to ensure a seamless, eye-catching layout. Their expertise can help make your outdoor spaces look fantastic.

4. Spray for Unwanted Pests

Nothing ruins your outdoor spaces more than pests. Not only can bugs like mosquitoes and ticks be annoying, but they can be harmful to you, your family, your pets, or your guests. Whether you're sitting outside to eat, relax, play lawn games, or any other reason, you want to enjoy your time without the hassle of pests buzzing around or biting you. With expert pest control services from a landscaping company, you no longer have to worry about buying bug spray, either.
