June Updates and News

1. Some statements are going out a bit late again this month. I’ve been work 12 and 14 hour days trying to get caught up from the rain in May, and let the billing slide a bit. Again, I won’t charge any late fees this month, please try to have payments in as soon as possible. Eventually I’ll get my billing act together and get statements out on time..
2. I don’t want to whine about the weather in May, but I have to address it. From May 14 through the 29, we were pretty much rained on every day. I think we were affected on 11 of those 16 days. We can handle a rain day or two each week in the spring, I expect that. But to miss that much time during the prime growing season, that is just overwhelming. It wasn’t just the delays, the ground became saturated and too wet to get the mowers on for many of you, with standing water in many yards. At one point we had 6 inches of rain in a 3 day period. So obviously that slowed us down a lot, and we ran behind. Really behind for some customers. I apologize for these delays. The weather has dried up and turned around a lot, and we’re running a lot smoother and hopefully back on schedule starting the week of June 6. Thanks for your patience.
3. Since I had to work through the Memorial Day weekend, I’m really aiming to have the 4th of July weekend off. If the weather does affect us around that time that might change. But right now I’m aiming for at least the 4th off.
4. As a reminder, late June/early July is the time of year to do a preventative treatment for grubs.
5. Thanks!
