Landscape

Grounds, irrigation and tree care on a scheduled route — same team, same agreement, same point of contact as the rest of your building.

Landscape

Our Landscape team maintains the grounds that frame your property — turf, beds, trees and the irrigation that keeps them alive. We work on a scheduled route with an assigned crew, handling both routine maintenance and the repairs that come with it, under the same agreement and the same point of contact as the rest of your building.

We manage water as carefully as we manage appearance. Irrigation is where most commercial landscape budgets quietly leak, so our crews test controllers and zones on every visit, document usage, and flag drought-tolerant conversions worth making before a water district asks for them.

What we handle

Four capability groups on a scheduled route. Storm and emergency response is dispatched through Facility Solutions, so it is one number either way.

Grounds Maintenance

The scheduled route — the work that happens whether or not anyone calls. Frequency is set by site and season, not by a flat weekly default.

  • Mowing, edging & string trim
  • Shrub & hedge trimming
  • Bed maintenance & cultivation
  • Mulch & bark refresh
  • Weed abatement
  • Fire clearance & defensible space
  • Seasonal color rotation
  • Fertilization & soil amendment
  • Turf aeration & overseed
  • Lot & walkway blow-down

Irrigation & Water Management

Where the budget actually goes. Zones are tested on a rotating schedule so failures surface before they show up as a dead planter or a wet sidewalk.

  • Controller programming
  • Seasonal schedule adjustment
  • Zone testing & wet checks
  • Valve, head & nozzle repair
  • Drip line repair & flushing
  • Mainline & lateral leak repair
  • Smart controller upgrades
  • Backflow coordination
  • Water district compliance reporting
  • Usage tracking & budget review

Trees & Plant Health

Canopy work that keeps signage visible, walkways clear and liability down. Larger removals are coordinated with a certified arborist.

  • Structural & clearance trimming
  • Canopy raising over walks & drives
  • Sightline & signage clearance
  • Deadwood removal
  • Stump & shrub removal
  • Staking & young tree training
  • Pest & disease identification
  • Plant replacement
  • Arborist coordination
  • Root & hardscape conflict repair

Site & Storm Work

The unscheduled half of the job, and the seasonal resets that keep a site from drifting.

  • Storm debris cleanup
  • Downed limb & tree response
  • Drainage & erosion repair
  • Gravel & DG refresh
  • Planter & hardscape repair
  • Drought-tolerant conversions
  • Turf removal & rebate support
  • Seasonal cleanup
  • Post-event site walks
  • Emergency access clearing
+ Much more

Seasonal color, holiday installs, one-off cleanups and whatever else the site needs. Tell us the property and we will build the route around it.

Inside a visit

The crew works a route sheet built for your site, not a generic checklist. Mow and detail work happens first, then a walk of the irrigation zones on rotation — heads, drip, controller programming — so every zone gets eyes on it over the course of a month rather than only when something dies.

Anything outside the scheduled scope gets photographed and quoted rather than performed and invoiced. Dead or declining plant material is flagged with a cause and a replacement cost before it becomes a bare patch someone complains about.

We visit on a set schedule built for your site on a standard agreement, and can hold a seasonal schedule where summer and winter warrant different cadence.

Questions we get

How often will crews be on site?
on a set schedule built for your site on a standard agreement, adjusted seasonally. We tell you the day, and the crew holds it.
Do you handle irrigation, or is that a separate vendor?
We handle it. Controllers, valves, heads, drip and leak repair are all in scope — no second number to call when a zone floods.
Can you work to our water budget or district requirements?
Yes. We track usage, adjust schedules seasonally, and produce the documentation districts ask for during restrictions.
What happens if plant material dies?
We flag it with a cause and a replacement cost rather than quietly leaving a gap. Material we install under a quoted project carries a written warranty.
Do you respond to storms outside the schedule?
Yes — dispatched through our Facility Solutions team on a time-and-materials basis, so it is the same company and the same invoice.
Can Landscape be added to an existing M5 agreement?
Yes. If we already maintain your building, grounds can be added to the same agreement, the same invoice and the same point of contact.
