Before listing, the yard needs to photograph well: mowed and edged lawn, weeded and freshly mulched beds, trimmed shrubs, swept walks and a few fresh plants by the door. It's a one-time job, usually a day or two, best done just before the listing photos.

Buyers see the front yard before anything else, and so does every listing photo.
Then keep it mowed weekly while it's on the market. We're a referral service: one local crew gets your request and quotes in writing.
A week or less before photos, with mowing until it sells.
Tell the crew the showing schedule.
Cleanups and shrub trimming yes; mulch and planting wait for spring.
Tell us the address and what you need. One local crew based in Bristol calls, sees the yard and puts it in writing.
Plain, sourced lawn and yard answers for Bristol and the East Bay, and one introduction to a local crew when you want it handled.
East Bay Lawn Care is an independent referral service, not a landscaping contractor. We don't do, schedule or price work; the local crew we connect you with handles all of that directly with you and is responsible for its own insurance.
