Sprinklers come on before six in the north Fresno tracts, and by the time the sun clears the rooftops off Bullard the lawns are wet and standing straight up. Santos Lawn Care Services builds the week around that — cutting once the water has gone down, edging the long curb strips, taking the trimmer close along the block walls. June here means grass at full speed, and a skipped week announces itself immediately from the street. The work is repetitive on purpose; the whole idea is that a homeowner never has to think about it again. Drive one of those streets on a Thursday evening and you can tell at a glance which houses are on the route.
