A note from Rafael

Hi — I’m Rafael.

I’ve been mowing yards out of North Austin since 2014. Solo operation — it’s just me on the truck most days, which means the person who quoted you is the same person who shows up Friday morning.

You’ll see me along Wells Branch, around the Domain, up in Round Rock and Pflugerville, west out to Lakeway. Same morning, same blade, every week. Bilingual — call or text in English or Spanish, whichever’s easier.

If your yard got away from you while you were out of town, I’ll come once and reset it. If you want me back every week after that, I’d be glad to.

— Rafael

p.s. easiest way to reach me: text (512) 923-7089.

What I do

Lawn care thatactually shows

Pick one service or all of them. I do the boring foundational work right so the lawn keeps looking good between visits.

Weekly Mowing

Same morning, same person, every week. Sharp blade, the right cut height for North Austin Bermuda or shaded St. Augustine, walks blown clean before I leave.

starts at $45 · per visit

Edging & Trimming

Power-edged lines along beds, walks, and drives. String-trim around fences, A/C units, and oak trunks where the mower can’t reach.

starts at $30 · per visit

Yard Cleanup & Leaf Removal

Got away from you while you were out of town? I’ll come once, reset the yard, and we can talk about whether weekly makes sense after.

starts at $85 · per visit

Bed Maintenance

Hand-pulled weeds, refreshed mulch, perennials cut back at the right time of year so the front beds don’t look forgotten.

starts at $95 · per visit

Shrub & Hedge Trimming

Boxwoods, hollies, esperanza, and the loropetalum nobody wants to climb into. Shaped clean, debris hauled.

quoted on-site

Mulch Refresh

Hardwood or cedar mulch laid two to three inches deep in beds and tree rings — keeps moisture in and weeds out through August.

starts at $95 · per visit

Sod Patches & Repair

Bare dog-run, dead patch under the live oak, or the strip the rolloff dumpster killed — fresh St. Augustine or Bermuda laid and watered in.

starts at $220 · per visit

Seasonal Feed

A simple fertilization schedule that fits the Austin calendar — feed in spring, summer hold, fall recover. No upsell to twelve treatments a year.

starts at $65 · per visit

How it works

Three steps,no hassle

We try to make hiring us boring in the best way — predictable, quiet, easy to explain to your spouse.

  1. Walk the property

    We come out, listen to what you want, and look at what the lawn actually needs. No high-pressure quotes, no surprises.

  2. Quote on the spot

    You get a flat per-visit price the same day. That number is what shows up on the invoice — no add-ons.

  3. Same crew, every week

    Once we start, the same two-person crew shows up the same morning every week. Quiet, on-time, gate latched.

The thing folks new to Austin always miss

Live oaks drop their leaves in spring — not fall.

If you moved to Austin from anywhere else, this one always catches you off-guard. Every February the live oaks dump a year’s worth of small, leathery leaves across your front yard right when the bluebonnets are coming in. Most crews don’t adjust their routes for it. I do.

  • Late Feb to early April is the window

    Two heavy drops, usually around the same week each year. The oak catkins come right after — a yellow pollen-string mess that needs a separate pass.

  • What most crews miss

    They mow over the leaves and call it done. The leaves shred fine but they smother St. Augustine if the layer’s too thick — your lawn comes out of the drop with yellow patches that take all summer to come back.

  • What I do

    Two extra blow-out passes between late February and early April for weekly customers, no extra charge — it’s just part of the cycle here. Catkins get a third pass once the wind settles them.

In their words

What customers say

From folks in North Austin, Round Rock, Pflugerville, and out toward Lakeway who’ve put up with me showing up every week.

Rafael came out within two days of my call, walked the yard, and gave me a fair price right then. Now he shows up every Friday morning. The yard hasn’t looked this consistent in six years of trying different crews.

We were getting ready to list the house and the back yard had gotten away from us. Rafael came out, did a full reset in one visit, and the listing photos looked like a different property. Reasonable price, no upsell.

David M.

via Yelp

Bilingual, on time, and he actually answers the phone — which sounds like a low bar but try finding it. Mowing has been weekly since spring and the edges are sharp every time.

Where I work

North Austin, Round Rock, and out to the lake.

I run my route from a North-Austin home base — 78758, near the Domain — and head out from there. If you’re inside this rough loop, I can usually fit a walk-through this week.

Good to know

Frequently asked

  • Yes. Weekly customers get the best lawn over time, but I do plenty of one-time cleanups — pre-listing yard prep, post-vacation reset, that kind of thing. No pressure to sign up for ongoing afterward.
