Our Lawn Care Services
The DT Team is always ready to serve our neighbors in East Des Moines, Pleasant Hill, Altoona, and Grimes, IA.
Our broad lawn care services are more than simply mowing your lawn but providing a service that is both given a 2nd look by our team as well as creating a 2nd look in admiration of your lawn. Every lawn service gets a double take from our team to make sure you’ll be happy with the results no matter the service. It’s not about how quickly we get the job done (although our team is efficient) but how well we leave your yard when we’re finished.
From spring clean-ups, snow removal, and even flag pole installation, we handle it all. Each season brings something needed for the health of your yard. As the snow melts, you can call us to help get your lawn ready for spring growth by removing the debris from winter. In the summer, you’ll know we’re keeping your grass cut to the recommended height of 3-4 inches for a healthy lawn all season long. In the fall, we help get your lawn ready for the harsh Iowa winters by removing unwanted yard debris. And when the snow falls, you can depend on our reliable snow removal services to help keep you safe. Our year-round services also include help with your landscaping and even adding a flag pole to personalize your yard.
From cleaning up the debris in the spring to helping keep your family safe from the hazards of winter, the DT Team can serve you year-round. Need a complete leaf clean-up to get your yard ready for winter? We can do that. Need a one-off refresh of your landscaping mulch? We can do that, too.

*Snow removal does require a contract; larger projects may require a deposit
Overgrowth: For new customers, if your grass is taller than 8 inches, we will charge an additional fee. This is because taller grass will need multiple passes and takes longer to string trim, especially to get the lawn to our standards.
Excess pet waste: We get it if you miss a pile here or there but if we feel there is a large amount of pet waste left on the lawn, we will charge an additional fee. The reason for this is that the waste can contaminate our equipment. We’ll have to take the time to clean our equipment after visiting your property so we don’t take the pet waste to another customer’s property.
Children’s toys: Toys don’t always make it back to the bin and a toy here or there is one thing. If there are toys scattered all over your lawn making it difficult for us to mow and trim, we’ll charge an additional fee to clean it up before we begin. This is for the safety of your children’s toys (i.e. pieces of toys being thrown from our mower) as well as keeping our equipment in top shape. We will not move trampolines or swing sets, only small toys that are easily moved. We can string trim under swing sets for an additional fee.
Trash and excess yard debris: The occasional can or wrapper is bound to happen. When it looks like a trash can tipped over or a tree dropped all its branches, we’ll charge an additional fee to clean it out of the way. A few twigs and a candy wrapper or two may not hurt our equipment but many of them will. The same as with toys, we don’t want trash or yard debris being flung from our mowers causing a safety concern.
First offense will be a $5 charge. Repeat offenses will be a charge of $10 per visit.
If we show up and the lawn has already been mowed, we will charge 50% of the regular service fee.
