How much does landscaping cost in Massillon?
Common Massillon 2026 rates: lawn mowing $30 to $80 per visit, tree trimming $200 to $800 per tree, mulching $100 to $400 per yard, landscape design $500 to $3,000 per project. Full yard installation (new beds, plants, irrigation) runs $5,000 to $25,000 depending on scope. Seasonal cleanups (spring or fall) are $200 to $600 for an average yard.
When should I schedule Massillon landscaping for spring?
Book spring cleanups in February or early March — top Massillon landscapers fill spring calendars by mid-March. New bed installation works best from late April through early June (after last frost, before summer heat). Sod can go down anytime the ground isn't frozen. Tree trimming is safer in late winter when trees are dormant.
Do I need a licensed landscaper in Massillon?
Ohio doesn't require a state license for general landscaping, but landscape architects (designers stamping plans) are licensed. Tree work above 15 feet usually involves ISA-certified arborists, especially for removals. For any irrigation or grading work, the contractor should pull a permit through your city's building department.
How often should I mow my Massillon lawn?
Weekly from mid-April through October during peak growth, every 10 to 14 days in early spring and late fall. The general rule: never cut more than one-third of the blade height in a single mow. Most Massillon lawn services offer 24- to 30-week contracts ($600 to $1,500 for the season) that work out to less than per-visit pricing.
What's the difference between a landscaper and a lawn care company?
Lawn care focuses on mowing, fertilization, weed control, and aeration — recurring chemical and mechanical maintenance. Landscapers handle installation: beds, plants, hardscapes, irrigation, design. Some Massillon companies do both, others specialize. For a one-time front-yard refresh, hire a landscaper. For weekly mowing all season, hire a lawn care service.
