What yard work comes up through the year at a Maryland home?
Tall fescue lawns are aerated and seeded between mid-August and mid-October, and mowing can run from March to late November. Gutters need cleaning about twice a year. Mulch stays 2 to 3 inches deep, and standing water gets 24 to 36 hours to soak in unless it is causing damage. We take on these jobs around Annapolis.
