I am a real novice at taking care of lawns and gardens. My yard has a huge
"lawn" that is in very bad shape. It has weeds, moss, crabgrass, bald
spots, etc.. Other than regular mowing and occasional weeding, I don't
know what else to do. A friend suggested hiring a lawn service business
for a year or two to get the "lawn" back into decent shape. Has anyone
tried this before? What exactly would they do? How much should I expect
to pay? I live in Western Washington. Thanks for any advice.

Any chance children will be playing on your lawn at any time in the next two
years?



Probably not. Why do you ask?
