The Lawn Barbers
The Lawn Barbers is a locally owned and operated lawn care and garden maintenance company that has served Boulder, Colorado and the Front Range for 15 years. The company provides a complete range of outdoor maintenance work, including garden and landscape maintenance, mowing and trimming, hedge and shrub trimming and shaping, aeration, fertilization, weed control, and spring and fall cleanup. Mowing is done to each customer's specifications, with clippings bagged or mulched by preference, and trimming covers edges plus interior borders such as flower beds and trees. Fertilization uses a pet and kid friendly product that is free of pesticides, herbicides and toxins, applied once a season in spring, summer and fall, while weeding is done by hand so the garden stays free of both weeds and herbicides. Seasonal cleanup covers leaf raking and collection, garden bed cleanout and winterization, and bush trimming, and a fire mitigation service weed whacks tall grass on any terrain, cuts back ground-level brush, prunes first-story tree branches to reduce ladder fuels, and removes small trees to create defensible space. Owner and founder Greg Dawson began mowing Boulder-area lawns in the late 1990s to raise tuition for the University of Colorado, and every new crew member goes through a thorough paid training program. The Lawn Barbers runs clean branded vehicles with professional uniformed personnel, recycles and composts all yard material locally through Eco-Cycle, offers all-organic services on request, powers its offices and facilities with Colorado wind energy and off-grid solar, and bids each property separately so estimates are free.

FAQs
How long has The Lawn Barbers served Boulder?
The Lawn Barbers has served Boulder, Colorado and the Front Range for 15 years as a locally owned and operated garden maintenance specialist.
What lawn care services do you offer?
The company handles garden and landscape maintenance, mowing and trimming, hedge and shrub trimming and shaping, aeration, fertilization, weed control, hand weeding, fire mitigation, and spring and fall cleanup.
Do you charge for an estimate?
No. Estimates are free. Because all yards, estates and commercial landscapes are different, The Lawn Barbers bids on each property separately, so you can call, email or use the website form to request a bid.
Is your fertilizer safe around pets and children?
The fertilizer The Lawn Barbers applies is pet and kid friendly, free of pesticides, herbicides and toxins, and it is applied once a season in spring, summer and fall.
What happens on my mow day?
The Lawn Barbers works in your neighborhood on a specific day of the week and mows on that day, at a time that may vary week to week. Gates need to be open and unlocked, so the company asks that pets stay indoors, that toys, hoses and other small items are put away, and that you skip watering the night before or the morning of your mow day.
What do you include in fire mitigation?
The team weed whacks tall grass on any terrain, cuts back and removes ground-level brush, prunes first-story tree branches to reduce ladder fuels, and cuts down and removes small trees to create defensible space around your home.
What happens to the yard material you haul away?
Nothing goes to waste. Grass clippings, branches, leaves and weeds are recycled and composted locally through Eco-Cycle, and all-organic services are available on request.
How am I billed?
Service is billed monthly with convenient payment options. Call (303) 517-3038 or email the team to get started.
