Our landscape maintenance services include regular weeding, shrub trimming, bed edging maintenance, pruning of small trees (up to 5 feet from structures), removal of debris, mulch refreshing, seasonal cleanups, and garden bed care. We can customize maintenance packages based on your property's specific needs and your desired level of service, with options ranging from one-time cleanups to recurring 8-week maintenance schedules throughout the growing season.

For most Quad Cities properties, we recommend maintenance visits every 6-8 weeks during the growing season (April through October). This frequency keeps weeds manageable, maintains crisp bed edges, and ensures shrubs and small trees stay properly shaped and healthy. Properties with extensive landscaping or those desiring a manicured appearance may benefit from more frequent visits (every 4 weeks), while basic maintenance might require only quarterly service.

Landscape maintenance typically ranges from $140-$300+ per visit for average residential properties, depending on your yard size, number of beds, quantity of plant material, and level of detail required. Our recurring maintenance programs offer better value than one-time services. During our on-site assessment, we'll provide a specific price quote based on your property's unique characteristics and your maintenance goals.

No, you don't need to be present during scheduled maintenance visits. Many of our customers appreciate our hassle-free process where we handle everything while they're at work or running errands. We confirm appointments via text message, and our crews know exactly what needs to be done based on your customized maintenance plan. We can also accommodate customers who prefer to be home during service if requested.

While our lawn mowing services focus specifically on grass cutting, edging, and cleanup, our landscape maintenance addresses everything else in your yard—garden beds, shrubs, trees, mulched areas, and decorative elements. Landscape maintenance is more detailed and focused on the health and appearance of your landscape plantings and bed areas rather than just turf management. Many customers combine both services for complete property care.

Absolutely! Seasonal cleanups are a cornerstone of our maintenance services. Our fall cleanups are particularly popular in the Quad Cities, removing leaves and preparing landscapes for winter. Spring cleanups focus on removing winter debris, cutting back perennials, and preparing beds for the growing season. These thorough cleanups can be scheduled as stand-alone services or as part of a regular maintenance program.

Our approach to weed control combines manual removal and targeted herbicide applications. For established weeds, we physically remove them including their root systems. For preventative control, we can apply pre-emergent treatments in spring and selective herbicides for smaller weeds throughout the season. All products are applied by trained technicians following manufacturer guidelines to ensure effectiveness while protecting your valuable landscape plants.

We offer both one-time cleanup services and ongoing maintenance programs. One-time cleanups are perfect for preparing your property for special events, catching up on neglected areas, or seasonal needs. Many customers start with a comprehensive cleanup to get their landscape back in shape, then transition to one of our recurring maintenance programs to keep it looking great year-round.

Our garden bed maintenance includes weeding, pruning and trimming of shrubs, bed edge redefinition, deadheading spent flowers, monitoring for pest and disease issues, minor plant replacements when needed, and general cleanup. For properties with extensive perennial gardens, we also provide specialized care like dividing overgrown plants, cutting back seasonal growth, and refreshing mulch as needed.

Our maintenance crews typically consist of 2-3 team members depending on the size and requirements of your property. All crew members are thoroughly trained, background-checked, and part of our local community. We maintain consistent crews for recurring maintenance customers whenever possible, allowing our team to become familiar with your property's specific needs and preferences over time.

Yes! We highly recommend professional maintenance for newly installed landscapes. The first year is critical for establishment, and our maintenance program ensures your investment thrives. New landscapes typically require more frequent attention for proper watering, weed control, and monitoring for any plant health issues. We offer specialized new landscape maintenance programs that gradually transition to standard maintenance as your landscape becomes established.

While we don't perform technical repairs on irrigation systems or water features, our maintenance services include cleaning around water features, removing debris from ponds and fountains, and reporting any issues with irrigation systems we notice during our visits. For technical repairs or winterization of these systems, we can recommend qualified partners in the Quad Cities area who specialize in these services.

Our maintenance service includes light pruning of shrubs and small ornamental trees up to about 8-10 feet tall. For major pruning work, large tree trimming, or tree removal, we offer these as separate services or can coordinate with qualified arborists for more extensive work. During regular maintenance visits, we identify and communicate any larger pruning needs we observe so you can make informed decisions about additional services.
