Big lots from the 1950s and 60s

Oak Hills is roomier than most of San Antonio. County records put the median home at 1964, and 66% of the homes were built in the 1950s and 60s. The median lot is 0.40 acre, so the yards split three ways: 30% are our Large yard at $60 a visit weekly, 32% are Extra large at $70, and 31% are over half an acre, priced by hand.

Lot sizes move a lot from street to street. On Northaven the typical lot is about 0.29 acre, and on Moss Oak and Midvale about a third of an acre. Glencrest and Sylvanoaks run about half an acre, and Lakeridge and Oakridge close to three quarters of an acre or more. The small lots on Muirfield are Standard yards. That is why we price from your county lot record, not a guess.

Shade and the city rules

If part of your yard stays in shade, Texas A&M AgriLife in Bexar County says to mow St. Augustine at 2 to 4 inches, and shaded lawns a little higher. The city sets the rest:

  • Grass: weeds and grass over 12 inches are a public nuisance on any lot under three acres (Sec. 14-61).
  • Brush: the city picks it up twice a year, 8 cubic yards at most, within 8 feet of the curb.
  • Water: SAWS rules apply. In a drought stage, sprinklers run once a week on the day set by the last digit of your address.

Around the neighborhood

We hang Christmas lights in Oak Hills too. Roofline lights are priced by the foot, not by the lot, so a big yard does not raise the price. See holiday lighting.

Oak Hills park, on Edgeville, sits inside the neighborhood on the Bexar County parks map, and Denman park is close by. We also mow in Colonies North and Castle Hills, and the rest of our area is on the service area page.

Lawn care in Oak Hills: your questions.

How much is lawn mowing in Oak Hills?

Is Oak Hills an HOA?

Oak Hills has a neighborhood association, the Oak Hills Citizens Association. The City of San Antonio lists it as a neighborhood association, not a homeowners association, for about 445 homes. We mow, edge and blow every visit either way.

How high should a shaded lawn be cut?

Texas A&M AgriLife in Bexar County puts St. Augustine at 2 to 4 inches and says to mow shaded lawns half an inch to an inch higher than lawns in full sun. Tell us which part of your yard stays in shade and we can leave it a little taller there.

Do you mow the small lots on Muirfield?

Yes. The typical lot on Muirfield is about 0.08 acre on the county record, our Standard yard at $55 a visit weekly. Type your address above to see yours.

When does the city pick up brush?

Twice a year, on a week the city sets for your address, with a door hanger 7 to 10 days ahead. Bulky items get their own two pickups a year. The city's Find My Collection Day tool or 311 gives you your week.

Can I book lawn mowing online?

Yes. Type your address and you see your price from your county lot size. Pick weekly, every other week or a one-time cut and book it online in about 2 minutes. No phone call needed. We text you to set your first mow.

“The Backyard Boys are the best! They were very professional and easy to work with in every step of the process. He made sure the quote was exactly what I wanted. The price was the best from several companies I had quoted. Diego let me know exactly when he would arrive. They worked hard all day and were very careful to make the lights look perfect! I had a problem after he left and he came back immediately to make sure everything worked perfectly. I highly recommend The Backyard Boys!!”

“There are not enough good things to say about the Backyard Boys. They went above and beyond installing Christmas roofline and trunk + limb lights. Diego et al were super friendly and couldn’t have been better with communications and checking to ensure the lights were perfect. You are making a mistake if you choose anyone else over the Backyard Boys.”

“I had a wonderful experience with Backyard Boys! I especially want to recognize Diego for his professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail. He was courteous, respectful, and took great care of my lawn. It’s refreshing to encounter someone who takes genuine pride in their work and treats your property with care. Everything looked beautiful when he finished, and I truly appreciate the time and effort he put into making my yard look its best. Diego is definitely an asset to the Backyard Boys team! I highly recommend their lawn care services and look forward to working with them again. Thank you, Diego!”

“They are only doing front yard edging currently. Well worth it every 2 weeks, to keep weeds down. Reasonably priced, on time and blows drive-way afterwards. Considering them for other projects.”
