Lawn care, landscape renovation, and hardscape installation for Locust homeowners. Marine Veteran-owned. Fully insured.
Locust sits between Albemarle, our home base, and Concord. Locust is in our home service area, so lawn maintenance and design-build projects are both available here.
Locust has grown steadily over the past decade, with newer subdivisions bringing modern homes on well-sized lots alongside the established rural properties that have defined the area for years. Both need professional attention. Newer construction homes need sod, bed installation, and a landscape plan from day one. Established properties need consistent maintenance, seasonal renovation, and turf programs that keep them competitive with the newer builds going up around them.
The soil conditions across Locust are typical NC Piedmont: heavy red clay with variable drainage that requires grading awareness on every hardscape project and turf program we build. Properties here sit in USDA Zone 8a, supporting Bermuda, Fescue, and Zoysia depending on sun exposure and the homeowner’s maintenance expectations.
Beyond lawn maintenance, we provide full lawn treatment programs, mulch and bed refresh, seeding and turf renovation, planting, pruning, sod installation, and custom hardscaping including paver patios, walkways, and retaining walls.
