We offer a full suite of property management and lawn care services to keep your Scranton-area property in great shape.

For more permanent improvements, we provide hardscaping and decorative stone installation. We also handle pest control to protect your landscape investment. Think of us as your single source for comprehensive outdoor care.

Absolutely. These are common challenges we address for homeowners in our area. For damaged edging, we repair or replace it with durable materials, often integrating decorative stone solutions that withstand our freeze-thaw cycles. For standing water, which can harm your lawn and foundation, we assess the yard's grading and drainage. We can implement corrective measures like regrading, installing French drains, or creating dry creek beds to channel water away effectively, solving the problem at its source.

Our two decades of experience, especially since converting to an LLC in 2011, means we've seen and solved virtually every lawn issue in the Scranton climate. We don't just apply a one-size-fits-all solution. Our long history here gives us insight into local soil conditions, pest lifecycles, and which grasses and plants thrive. This deep local knowledge allows us to create care plans—whether for fertilization, aeration, or pest control—that are specifically tailored for lasting results in Northeastern Pennsylvania.
