Austin Lawn Care You Can Count On
Maintaining a healthy, attractive lawn in Austin, Texas requires more than just mowing. The Central Texas climate — with its hot, dry summers, unpredictable spring rains, and occasional winter freezes — demands a lawn care approach that's tailored to local conditions. At Grass Works Austin, we've been providing professional lawn care services in Austin and the surrounding communities since 2007, and we understand exactly what it takes to keep Central Texas lawns looking their best.
Our lawn care crews operate on consistent weekly and bi-weekly schedules throughout Austin, Cedar Park, Round Rock, Georgetown, Leander, and the Highland Lakes communities of Marble Falls and Horseshoe Bay. Every visit includes mowing at the correct height for your grass type, edging along all hard surfaces, trimming around obstacles, and blowing clippings from driveways and walkways.
We maintain all common Central Texas grass varieties, including St. Augustine, Bermuda, Zoysia, and Buffalo grass. Our team is trained to recognize the signs of lawn stress, pest damage, and disease — and we'll alert you to any issues we notice during our visits so you can address them before they become costly problems.
Austin's unique soil conditions — heavy black clay in many neighborhoods, shallow caliche in others, and sandy loam near the Colorado River — require different approaches to mowing, fertilization, and watering. Our crews are trained on these local soil types and adjust their approach accordingly. We don't use a one-size-fits-all protocol; we tailor our care to what your specific lawn needs.
One of the most common complaints we hear from new customers is that their previous lawn service was inconsistent — crews that skipped visits without notice, mowed at the wrong height, or left clippings on the driveway. At Grass Works Austin, consistency is our core promise. You'll receive the same crew on the same day each week, and if anything changes, we'll communicate with you in advance.

Frequently Asked Questions About Lawn Care in Austin
How often should I mow my lawn in Austin, TX?
During the active growing season (March through October), most Austin lawns benefit from weekly mowing. In the cooler months, bi-weekly service is typically sufficient. The exact frequency depends on your grass type — St. Augustine and Bermuda grow faster in Austin's heat than Zoysia or Buffalo grass.
What grass types do you maintain in Austin?
We maintain all common Central Texas grass types including St. Augustine, Bermuda, Zoysia, Buffalo grass, and Centipede. Each grass has different mowing height requirements, and our crews are trained to mow at the correct height for each variety.
Do you offer contracts or one-time lawn mowing in Austin?
We offer both recurring maintenance plans (weekly or bi-weekly) and one-time lawn mowing services in Austin. Most customers find that a recurring plan provides the best value and the most consistent results.
Are you licensed and insured for lawn care in Austin?
Yes. Grass Works Austin is fully licensed and insured. We carry general liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage on all crew members. Our irrigation division holds a State of Texas Irrigation License (#LI19556).
Do you service the Highland Lakes area for lawn care?
Yes! We provide lawn care services in Marble Falls, Horseshoe Bay, Lago Vista, Spicewood, and other Highland Lakes communities in addition to the Austin metro area.
What is the best mowing height for St. Augustine grass in Austin?
St. Augustine grass in Austin should be mowed at 3.5 to 4 inches during the growing season. Mowing too short (scalping) weakens the turf and increases susceptibility to heat stress, chinch bugs, and weed invasion. We always mow St. Augustine at the appropriate height for Central Texas conditions.
How do I get rid of weeds in my Austin lawn?
Effective weed control in Austin requires a combination of pre-emergent herbicide applications in early spring and fall, post-emergent spot treatments for existing weeds, and proper mowing height to prevent weed germination. Our seasonal lawn care programs include timed weed control applications appropriate for Central Texas.
