Stone Oak is home base for Howdy Lawn Care — it's the neighborhood our crews know best and where we started.
Stone Oak's newer, master-planned properties are mostly St. Augustine sod on the same caliche-influenced soil common across North San Antonio — consistent enough that our crews know what each street needs before we arrive.
Most lawns around San Antonio are St. Augustine or Bermuda — warm-season grasses that love summer, go tan after the first hard frost and green back up in spring. Each wants its own mowing height and rhythm, and we cut for the grass you actually have.
Across the San Antonio area, soil runs from thin, rocky Hill Country limestone to heavier clay. Thin soil dries out fast; clay holds water and compacts. We adjust watering advice and mowing to what your lot really has, not a one-size schedule.
Triple-digit afternoons and stretches with no rain stress even tough turf. Mowing a bit taller in peak summer shades the soil and helps lawns hold their color and roots.
Hot, dry stretches are when chinch bugs go after St. Augustine, and fire ants build mounds in lawns and beds year-round. We flag what we see on a visit so small problems don't turn into dead patches.
Warm-season grass grows fastest from spring through early fall, which is when weekly mowing matters most. As growth slows in cooler months, most lawns move to bi-weekly.
Because of oak wilt, it's generally recommended to avoid pruning live oaks from roughly February through June. If you're planning tree trimming, we'll help schedule it around that window.
Live oaks shed old leaves in late winter as new growth pushes, while pecans, elms and other deciduous trees drop theirs in late fall. A seasonal clean up keeps leaves from smothering the lawn and clogging beds.
Cities and water utilities around San Antonio limit outdoor watering during drought stages, and the rules differ by where you live. Check your own utility's current stage — it affects how often you can water a lawn that's struggling.
