I have a customer that I picked up last year. I mulched there lawn last year edged, whipped, and blew no problems. This year the owner says he is unhappy with some of the fertilizing companies so he is going to do it himself, OK. He had mulch put in this year, so they told me to bag so I don't blow grass in the beds. Alright I see his point there. He waters his lawn every day and must fertilzer just about every month.
His lawn is growing way out of control, like I have never seen before. I cut lawns once a week and this lawn is taking me way too long to cut now. Every pass I have to stop and bag the clippings. So I tried to cut at 4 1/4 inches then re-cut at 3-3/4 inches. Well now I am doing twice the work. I cannot tell them don't water and fertilzer your lawn so much, its too much work for me? For doing twice the work, should I charge twice the amount $35; now I charge $70? Bagging is slowing me down as well. I could cut twice a week. I am not sure what to do, what do you guys think?
