With our experienced construction staff and crews, our organization has the background and knowledge to foster the new plantings to maturity. Due to the nature of plant material maturing over time, there will be a need to review the design intent and make plans for partial renovations. Examples include removing trees planted too close which were scraping the building, hurting the foundation, or planted under roof overhangs, removing overgrown shrubs blocking entrances and exits that result in liability situations, correcting drainage issues like soil sediments clogging drainage pathways, or replacing old brittle irrigation systems.

We assume comprehensive management of the exterior landscape assets for your industrial park, office building, medical park or shopping plaza. From our beginning in 1976, we have approached our idea of a landscape maintenance contract a little differently. We look at the landscape holistically; This includes considering design intent, curb appeal, correct installation techniques, insect or disease control, water management, drainage and grading issues, prospective danger or liability issues, soil deficiencies, proper plant selection and location over time, seasonal and weather effects, budget restraints, thorough planning of long-range goals and the changes that need to be made over the years as the property matures.

At the time, most commercial building grounds were paved wastelands with maybe a few trees. That left primarily apartment developments as our target customers for the first few years. As demand for green space and pleasant working conditions took hold in the 80's, so did demand for our services. This foresight was not just a fluke. John developed the first one-page specification format to show prospective clients what they would be receiving with their annual maintenance contracts.
