Landscaping and Lawn Care in Hebron, IN

Hebron is spread out. A house sits back from the road on a long drive, the lot is generous, and the yard blends into a field, a windbreak or a stand of trees. A pole barn, a pond or a run of fence can break the ground up. That is a different mowing job from a town lot, and the price should reflect how much actually gets cut.

South of Valparaiso the ground flattens as the moraine gives way to outwash plain, so Hebron sees heavier till in some spots and lighter, sandier soil in others, sometimes along the same road. Low spots hold water after a wet week and dry slowly, and a mower treats those differently than a dry rise. We watch for soft ground, because ruts left in April and May are hard to take back out.

Grass on open Hebron ground wakes up fast in May and keeps pushing through June, so the start of the season is where a missed week costs the most. Midsummer slows it, and a long dry spell calls for a higher cut so the lawn does not scorch. In fall, leaves from tree lines and windbreaks pile up along the edges of the turf, and those edges decide how clean the last mowings look.

For Hebron we list mowing and maintenance. That means weekly or biweekly mowing, string trimming around fences, posts, beds and the foundation, edging along the drive and walk, and clippings blown off the hard surfaces. Fertilizer and weed control applications are outside what we do, and irrigation repair is a separate job.

Hebron and Kouts are both rural stops in southern Porter County, and the long drives mean we group Hebron properties onto the same weekday instead of making a separate trip for each one. You get a set day, the same crew on it, and nobody has to be home to let us in. Farm-edge and commercial properties are scheduled the same way as the houses.

Phone 219-299-4132, Mon to Fri, 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM. We walk the Hebron property, note the gates, slopes and obstacles, and hand you a written price before the first cut. The visit is free. If the beds need cleaning out in spring or the leaves need to come off in fall, we can add that to the same schedule.
