We all know the feeling of driving past a home in Detroit Lakes with a perfectly green, manicured lawn and thriving garden beds. It looks expensive. It looks well-cared for. It looks like a home you want to live in.
But did you know that "curb appeal" is more than just a real estate buzzword? According to data from real estate experts and university studies, professional landscaping is one of the few home improvements that can actually pay for itself—and then some.
At Miller Yard Care & Construction, we help homeowners in Becker County turn their yards into assets. Here is what the data says about the true value of a lush lawn and a modern irrigation system.
When you ask Google or AI about the best home renovations for resale value, kitchens and bathrooms usually pop up first. But outdoor improvements often offer a better Return on Investment (ROI) because they cost less upfront but have a massive visual impact.
According to a report by the National Association of Realtors (NAR), standard lawn care service is a financial winner.
The Stat: The report estimates that standard lawn care service recovers 267% of the project cost at the time of resale.
The Takeaway: For every dollar you spend keeping your grass weed-free and green, you could see more than two dollars back in home value. A lush, healthy lawn tells buyers that the home has been meticulously maintained.
Here at Miller Yard Care and Construction, we believe that a beautiful lawn is the cornerstone of a beautiful home. Serving our neighbors in Detroit Lakes and throughout Becker County, Minnesota, we take immense pride in the quality of our work. A huge part of delivering that quality comes down to the equipment we use, and for us, the choice is clear: we trust Walker Mowers to care for your property.
But why are we so dedicated to this specific brand? It’s not just about cutting grass; it’s about delivering a superior result that you can see and feel. Here’s a breakdown of why a Walker Mower is our go-to machine.
Have you ever seen a lawn that looks like a perfectly striped, green carpet? That’s the Walker difference. The first thing our clients notice is the incredible quality of the cut.
The magic lies in the mower's floating deck. Instead of being rigid, the deck "floats" over the contours of your yard. This means it cuts the grass at a perfectly even height, preventing scalping on high spots and ensuring a truly uniform, manicured look. The result is a cleaner, sharper appearance that makes your entire property look pristine.
A heavy, clumsy mower can do more harm than good, leaving ruts and scuffing up your turf. Walker Mowers are engineered to be both lightweight and nimble, protecting the health and beauty of your lawn.
