About Longhorn Outdoor Services

August tests a Waukesha lawn. Three weeks without real rain and the clay tightens up, the crowns of the grass go pale, and a careless cut can set a yard back into September. Longhorn Outdoor Services reads that and adjusts — mowing higher through the dry stretch, keeping blades honest so the cut is clean rather than torn, trimming and edging so the yard still holds its shape even while it waits on weather. Then a good soaking arrives, everything greens up in about four days, and the routine picks its rhythm back up. Spring and fall the cleanups take the heavy work, clearing the ground of what winter and autumn leave. It's a long game, played on somebody's front yard, in the middle of a Wisconsin summer.
