Using the wrong tools. If your maintenance crew doesn't have access to the tools they need, chances are good an accident - or at the very least, an aesthetic one - can happen. Make sure you've got the basics to offer your staff: lawnmowers, leaf blowers and edge trimmers are a must.
Mowing, blowing and leaving. It's tempting to blow your grass clippings into the street once you've finished mowing the grass, but it looks terrible! Instead, take the extra time to pick up the clippings - you don't want to sacrifice any curb appeal!
Overfertilizing. Even when you contract out to lawn maintenance specialists, this can be a problem. Fertilizing once a season is plenty. Too much and you'll wind up with "fertilizer burn" - brown or yellow grass.
