July in Perth Amboy arrives with the humidity of a bay town, and the good hour is the one just after sunrise, before the dew burns off the streets that run downhill toward the Raritan. GKB Landscaping takes the lawns on those blocks — mowing, string trimming, keeping the seasonal cleanups from piling into a bigger job. Cut early and a yard stands up all day; cut late and it lies flat by dinner, and you can tell from the sidewalk which is which. What they're after is uniform: one even green sweep, front to back, with the trimmer line following the fence and the foundation exactly. Small yards, done right, add up to a block that looks cared for.
