Services
Mowing
Our comprehensive lawn management program maintains commercial properties with expert mowing, edging, and turf health assessments. Using commercial-grade equipment, we ensure precise 1-3 inch cutting heights that promote root strength while maintaining immaculate appearance. Regular mowing schedules adapt to seasonal growth patterns, with technicians monitoring soil conditions and pest activity during each visit.
Irrigation
We design, install, and maintain customized irrigation systems that optimize water usage while maintaining landscape health. Our licensed technicians program smart controllers based on plant species, soil type, and sun exposure. Regular maintenance includes checking 20+ components per system, repairing leaks, and winterizing equipment to prevent freeze damage in St. Louis' variable climate.
Landscape Design
Our design team creates functional outdoor spaces that enhance property aesthetics and value. Services include planting plans with native species selection, hardscape installation of walkways and retaining walls, and seasonal color displays. Each project receives a detailed estimate outlining materials, timelines, and maintenance requirements before construction begins.
Winter Services
We provide snow removal, de-icing, and emergency winter storm response across the St. Louis region. Our fleet handles properties from 6-unit complexes to 300-acre campuses using calibrated spreaders for precise chemical application. Services include 24/7 on-call plowing, sidewalk clearing, and roof snow load management to prevent structural damage during heavy snowfall.
Pest Management
Our integrated pest management program identifies and treats lawn-damaging insects while minimizing chemical use. Certified applicators conduct regular inspections, soil sampling, and treatment applications when pest populations exceed action thresholds. We use EPA-registered products applied with calibrated equipment to protect turf health without harming beneficial organisms.
