Our shrugs and bushes were recently trimmed with this company. They did a thorough job of cleaning up all the debris left from the trimming. I was happy with their efforts and attention to detail.

Adam Humphrey rescued me! I was thinking there was a constant water leak. He dug a discard drain to find the water was coming from the drain system. Next he adjusted the sprinkler head to cover a corner. Apparently I need soil and seeding there. A focal point will be green next spring.

Lifestyle has been a great help in helping me to replace an overgrown evergreen which had blocked my driveway vision. They are providing grasses which will help block the view of my electical boxes while still maintaining traffic sightings.
