Last year, we were having a garage sale, and one of the potential buyers asked me if our neighbors had a lawn guy, since their yard was (frankly) not looking that great, because there are absentee tenants. I told
him the situation, then asked if he was in the business himself, because I was looking for someone to help with some basic landscaping stuff at my house.
I am thankful that I asked, and I made a new friend in the process.
Darrell Williams is our yard care specialist, and I would highly recommend calling him if you live in the Pflugerville / Round Rock / Hutto area. He works doing landscaping for the school district during the day, and he provides very reasonable lawn mowing (and edging, trimming, etc.) on the side.
When we originally met, Darrell helped me a great deal by trimming all of our trees and bushes, along with mulching five different flowerbeds, all for around $200! This price even included the materials! He now handles our weekly mowing.
The very first time he was working here at our house, I was surprised to return home and see that he cleaned up some of the neighbor's yard along the sidewalk. "I didn't think you would want to see that every day", he said plainly. He was right!
Darrell is a man of his word. He has never missed an appointment with us yet. If he says he will show up to handle something, he will be there. He's a very hard worker, and I have seen him work until it was almost dark (which happens around 9pm these days). His slogan is appropriate, "Leave the sweating to ME, save your time and energy!"
I've never had to pay him upfront for his work, and he will allow me to pay once a month if needed, or I can pay as we go. He accepts cash and checks. Darrell services Travis, Williamson, and Bell counties.
Darrell can be reached via cell at 512-773-8686. Call him today - you'll be glad you did!

Great job letting the masses know of a recommendation from the Crouch-meister!
It's nice when you find someone you can connect with an takes pride in what they do. Unfortunately over in our area of TX we haven't had rain so most lawns have gone brown. I believe the landscapers have had to go on to other jobs.
Sounds like a wonderful value. I get tired of seeing the "chain" lawn businesses. Love personal touch.
It's so nice when you find a service provider who takes pride in their work- and at a reasonable price. Good deal.
