Lawn Care
Mowing, feeding and weed control that keeps a yard on schedule, with a local Dallas-Fort Worth contractor and the appointment set on one call.
Lawn Care in Colleyville runs on Dallas-Fort Worth rules. The lawns are Bermuda and St. Augustine, with zoysia in some shaded yards, the soil is heavy black clay that swells when wet and cracks when dry, and the climate is long, hot summers with stretches over 100 degrees, mild winters and a spring storm season. That combination decides what good lawn care looks like here: the services below are the ones local contractors actually book in Colleyville, sequenced for this grass and this soil rather than copied from a national checklist.
Colleyville is one of the smaller covered communities in Dallas-Fort Worth, served through a single ZIP code route, 76034. It lies roughly 23 miles from Dallas, the metro's coverage anchor, which is why the same contractor routes often serve both. Coverage follows contractor routes, not city limits, so a street on the edge of a listed ZIP is worth a call to confirm.
Yards in Colleyville follow the Dallas-Fort Worth rhythm: heat and drought stress in mid-summer; crabgrass and dallisgrass in thin areas; clay compaction that sheds water. Left alone, each tends to widen: thin areas invite weeds, stressed grass invites pests, and tired soil makes both worse. The contractors who work Colleyville build the visit around the dominant problem first, then set the maintenance rhythm that keeps it from returning.
Clean cuts, sharp edges and a yard that stays on schedule. Typical range $45-$95 per visit.
Feeding timed to the grass, the soil and the season. Typical range $55-$160 per application.
Stop weeds before they seed, and thicken the grass that replaces them. Typical range $50-$145 per application.
Open compacted soil so water, air and seed reach the roots. Typical range $90-$260 per lawn.
Spring wake-ups and fall leaf clearing that reset the whole yard. Typical range $160-$520 per visit.
Lines are open open 9am-5pm cst, mon-sun. A short call covers the service, the yard and the timing, and ends with an appointment booked with a local contractor, not a promise to ring back.
For a yard in full sun, Bermuda is usually the easier fit because it handles heat and drought well and recovers quickly from wear. St. Augustine can grow in sun, but it needs more water through summer and needs closer watching for chinch bugs. A lawn mowing and fertilization plan built for Bermuda will keep it dense enough to resist most weeds.
During fast spring and early summer growth, lawn mowing about once a week is typical for Bermuda and St. Augustine in DFW. The guide is the one third rule, which means never removing more than one third of the blade in one cut. Letting spring growth get tall and then scalping it stresses the turf and opens space for crabgrass.
A common planning target is about 1 inch of water per week including rainfall, split across your allowed watering days. On black clay, cycle and soak watering in shorter repeated cycles soaks in better than one long run that ponds and runs off. Watering early in the morning reduces evaporation loss and helps the lawn dry during the day.
Houston Black and related vertisol clays absorb water fast through cracks when dry, then swell shut and absorb very slowly once wet. That is why a long single cycle sheets off to the sidewalk. Shorter cycles with rest periods, plus aeration on compacted areas, help water enter the root zone instead of leaving the yard.

Spring green-up and pre-emergent timing, summer watering discipline, and fall recovery define the DFW lawn year. In Colleyville that calendar is not academic. Work booked in the right window costs less and lasts longer, because the grass does half the job itself when the season is on its side. Many DFW communities run twice-weekly watering schedules in summer, so deep, infrequent watering on allowed days matters more than daily sprinkles. Your contractor will set the visit timing against the Dallas-Fort Worth season rather than a national schedule, and will tell you plainly if the job you want belongs in a different month.
