The Solution

How Robotic Mowing Works for Your Community

A simple four-step process to eliminate your lawn care headaches.

Assessment

We survey your property, measure acreage, map slopes, and identify zones.

Installation

Professional RTK GPS mapping and mower deployment. No buried wires needed.

Autonomous Operation

Mowers run daily on schedule. App-based monitoring gives you full visibility.

Ongoing Support

We handle blade changes, seasonal adjustments, and any service needs.

Zero Noise Complaints

Operates at 58dB — quieter than a conversation. Run early mornings or late evenings.

FAQ

Common Questions from HOA Boards

Who owns the mower?

It depends on the plan you choose. With Mower-as-a-Service, Smart Lawn NY owns and maintains all equipment — you just pay a flat monthly fee. With the Purchase + Service Plan, your association owns the mower outright and we handle ongoing maintenance through an annual service agreement.

What about liability?

All equipment is fully insured and operates within precisely mapped GPS boundaries. Robotic mowers include built-in safety features: lift sensors that instantly stop the blades, collision detection, and PIN/GPS anti-theft protection. We carry comprehensive commercial liability coverage.

Does it work in winter?

During the mowing off-season, equipment is winterized and stored. For communities looking for year-round automation, the Yarbo snow module is available as an add-on — it clears walkways and paths autonomously using the same RTK mapping system.

What if the mower breaks down?

All service plans include repair and, if necessary, equipment replacement. MaaS customers get same-day loaner units to ensure zero downtime. We monitor mower health remotely through the app and proactively schedule maintenance before issues occur.

How loud is it?

Under 60 decibels — roughly the volume of a normal conversation. That means your mower can operate early mornings, late evenings, or weekends without a single noise complaint. Compare that to a gas mower at 95dB, which is louder than a motorcycle.

What about slopes and hills?

The Navimow TerraNox commercial series handles slopes up to 43 degrees with 4-wheel drive and all-terrain tires. During the property assessment, we map elevation changes and configure the mower's zones to handle your specific terrain safely.

Do we need to change anything about our grounds?

Minimal preparation is needed. Our mowers use RTK GPS for navigation — no buried boundary wires to install. We may suggest minor adjustments like trimming low branches or flagging irrigation heads, but most properties are ready to go with little to no modification.
