Tybee lawns live in sand and salt. Water and fertilizer move straight through that soil, so feeding lightly and more often beats one heavy application that washes out with the next storm. Salt spray burns tender growth on the ocean side, and Bermuda and St. Augustine hold up best here — centipede tends to struggle within a few blocks of the water. We keep blades sharp, because blowing sand dulls them fast and a torn blade browns at the tip. Dune vegetation and sea oats stay untouched; we work around them rather than trimming to the line. Yards on the back-river side hold moisture longer than the ocean-facing ones and green up sooner in spring, so two lawns a few streets apart rarely want the same treatment.

From May through September, warm-season grasses here grow fast enough that weekly is the right interval — in a hot, rainy stretch even seven days can look long. Spring and fall usually hold at every other week. Once the grass goes dormant after the first frost, mowing nearly stops and the work shifts to leaves, edging and cleanup. Cutting more than a third of the blade at once stresses the lawn, which is why skipping weeks in summer tends to backfire.
Price comes down to how much turf there actually is, not the lot size on paper — a half acre that's mostly woods cuts faster than a small yard full of beds, trees and fence line. Obstacles, gates, slopes and soggy low spots all add time. Frequency matters too: weekly visits cost less per stop than monthly ones, since overgrown grass takes longer to get through. Tell us roughly what the property looks like at (912) 455-5073 and we can work from there.
Centipede, St. Augustine, Bermuda and zoysia all go dormant after the first frost, usually in November or December, and mowing mostly stops until green-up in spring. Winter visits shift to leaf cleanup, edging and keeping beds tidy — and late winter stays busy, because live oaks drop their old leaves and catkins through February and March. Hold fertilizer until the lawn is fully green, generally mid-spring; feeding dormant grass mainly feeds the weeds.
It sets the mowing height, which is the biggest single factor in how a lawn holds up here. St. Augustine wants to be cut high, around three to four inches, so it shades out weeds and tolerates live oak shade. Centipede runs lower and is easily damaged by too much fertilizer. Bermuda takes full sun and frequent cutting. Zoysia is dense and slower. Cutting everything at one height is how lawns get scalped, so we set the deck to what you actually have.
Afternoon thunderstorms are a given here all summer, so a wet day usually means moving your visit rather than skipping it, and we'll be in touch about the new day. We won't mow saturated ground — equipment on wet coastal soil leaves ruts and tears the turf up. Ground under heavy shade can stay soft a day or two longer than the open parts of the same yard, which is often what pushes a visit rather than the rain itself.
