Services
Lawn Maintenance
Our weekly lawn maintenance includes grass cutting, garden edging, line trimming, and weed control. We perform seasonal cleanups with dethatching, limestone application, and debris removal. Our technicians apply four seasonal fertilizer treatments using conventional or organic options to maintain healthy turf year-round.
Landscape Design
We create customized landscape designs that enhance property aesthetics and functionality. Our process includes plant selection based on local climate and soil conditions. We install both traditional and raised bed vegetable gardens while ensuring proper irrigation and maintenance accessibility for long-term success.
Paver Sealing
Our sealing process protects pavers and bluestone surfaces from UV damage and color fading. We offer both glossy and matte finish options while stabilizing jointing sand to prevent erosion. This service extends the lifespan of hardscapes while maintaining their visual appeal through specialized sealing techniques.
Landscape Lighting
We install professional lighting systems that enhance nighttime curb appeal and improve outdoor safety. Our designs create ambient lighting effects using industry-leading products from trusted manufacturers. The systems highlight architectural features and landscape elements to showcase your property after dark.
Lawn Restoration
Our fall restoration program includes core aeration and overseeding with premium grass varieties. We apply peat moss to bare spots and adjust sprinkler systems for optimal water distribution. This comprehensive approach repairs winter damage and establishes dense, healthy turf that thrives through the growing season.
