We believe that lawn care shouldn’t be complicated. That’s why we offer a clear, focused range of services that address the most common needs for yards in the Pee Dee region.

Our Core Services

Here’s an overview of what we offer. Each service is carried out by experienced professionals using commercial-grade equipment and proper lawn care techniques.

Lawn Care

Our routine lawn care service includes mowing, trimming, edging, and blowing. We maintain a clean, uniform cut, adjusting blade height based on your grass type and season. Edges are trimmed neatly along sidewalks, driveways, and beds for a finished, professional look.



Regular lawn maintenance improves turf health, reduces weed growth, and helps prevent soil compaction. Whether you need weekly, bi-weekly, or seasonal visits, we’ll help keep your lawn looking its best.

Bush Removal

Unwanted or overgrown bushes can make your property feel cluttered or block visibility around driveways and windows. We remove shrubs safely and cleanly, including root systems when necessary, to give you back space and control.



Bush removal is ideal before landscaping updates, mulching, or overseeding. It can also improve safety and visual appeal around entryways and property borders.

Leaf Removal

Leaves may look harmless, but when they build up, they block sunlight, retain moisture, and create breeding grounds for pests and disease. Our leaf removal service keeps your lawn clean and healthy.



We rake, blow, and bag leaves from all lawn areas, flower beds, driveways, and porches. Seasonal leaf cleanups are recommended in the fall and early winter to prevent long-term turf damage.

Overgrown Property Cleanup

If you’ve let things go for a while—or just acquired a neglected property—we offer full overgrown property cleanup services. This includes tall grass cutting, brush clearing, limb removal, weed control, and debris hauling.



This service is ideal for:

  • Vacant homes
  • Rental turnovers
  • Foreclosed properties
  • Lots with seasonal overgrowth
  • Pre-listing real estate cleanup


We bring properties back to manageable condition, quickly and professionally.

Mulching

Mulch is more than just decorative. It insulates roots, retains moisture, suppresses weeds, and improves soil structure. We deliver and install high-quality mulch in your choice of color and material, applied evenly and to proper depth around trees, beds, and shrubs.



Mulching is a fast way to refresh the look of your landscape while offering functional benefits for plant health.

Pine Straw Installation

Pine straw is a lightweight, natural ground cover that offers an attractive alternative to mulch. It’s ideal for sloped areas and shaded garden beds. We install fresh, clean pine straw with crisp edges and uniform coverage, ensuring a clean appearance and long-lasting results.



Pine straw also helps prevent erosion, conserves moisture, and protects plant roots from temperature swings.

Overseeding

If your lawn is thinning, patchy, or struggling after a dry season, overseeding can help restore its fullness. We apply high-quality grass seed chosen for your property’s sunlight and soil conditions, then pair it with proper soil contact methods and watering guidance.



Overseeding thickens existing grass, boosts resilience, and improves color and growth in the months ahead. It’s most effective when paired with aeration and fall lawn care.
