Property Maintenance & Seasonal Services
Weekly Lawn Maintenance
-
Weekly lawn maintenance typically starts in April and runs through November. We sharpen our blades every morning and use the industry’s best equipment (Scag V2 commercial mowers with high lift blades). We have notes in the truck detailing your preferences for your property. We allow you to select your preferred cutting height, should you so choose. Weekly visits include mowing, trimming, edging, and debris removal.
-
This depends on the size of your lot. However, most properties in our service area range from $55–$65 per week.
Fertilizer
-
Dethatching is an efficient method of removing excess thatch (the layer of debris, dead grass, and other organic matter lying between grass blades and the soil's surface) from your lawn so that nutrients, air, and water can reach the soil.
-
$200-$250
Monthly Weeding
-
We assess the area, identifying and carefully extracting weeds to promote the health and aesthetics of your outdoor space. This service may also include preventive measures to inhibit future weed growth, ensuring your garden remains well-maintained and free from invasive plants. Whether by hand or using specialized tools, a weeding service aims to create a weed-free environment, allowing your desired plants to thrive and enhancing the overall appearance of your landscape.
-
$85/man hour. For this service, we typically use a 3-man crew. Most properties take 30-45 minutes if visited monthly.
Aeration & Overseeding
-
Aeration involves removing small cores of soil from your lawn to relieve soil compaction and allow water, air, and nutrients to penetrate the roots. Overseeding involves planting new grass seed over existing turf to promote thicker, healthier grass. This is performed in the early fall.
-
Core Aeration $185-$235
Aeration & Overseeding $300-$400

Pruning & Shrub Trimming
-
Shrub trimming offers a range of benefits, including a tidy appearance, healthier growth, enhanced flowering, disease prevention, and better control over the shrub's size and structure. Regular trimming ensures your landscaping stays visually appealing while promoting the overall well-being of your shrubs.
-
This can be determined by scheduling a meeting and having us come look, or sending us pictures to provide a quick estimate.
Spring & Fall Clean-Ups
-
Our spring and fall clean-ups prepare your property for the season ahead. We remove leaves, branches, and other debris from lawns and landscape beds, cut back seasonal plant material, and leave the property looking clean, neat, and ready for warmer weather or winter.
-
Spring clean-ups: $300-$450
Fall clean-ups: (2 visits) $650-$900
Mosquito & Tick Control
-
For effective mosquito control in Chicagoland, we recommend recurring treatments, typically on a monthly or seasonal basis. This ensures a consistent barrier against mosquitoes, especially during peak seasons. Environmental factors like rain can impact treatment longevity, potentially requiring more frequent applications. Typically, a single treatment lasts up to 2 weeks. This approach is best suited for our area, where mosquito activity is notable, and adapting the frequency based on local weather conditions is essential for optimal results.
-
$100 per treatment
Gutter Cleaning
-
Gutter cleaning is essential to prevent flooding near the foundation. Clogged gutters, filled with debris like leaves and twigs, hinder water flow, leading to potential issues such as foundation damage, basement flooding, and landscaping erosion. Regular cleaning ensures water is directed away from the property, safeguarding against costly repairs and protecting the structural integrity of the home.
-
Contact us for pricing. Cost depends primarily on the height and pitch of the roofline.
Pressure Washing
-
Pressure washing is a versatile and effective service designed to restore and enhance the cleanliness of various surfaces. Using high-pressure water, this method efficiently removes dirt, grime, mold, mildew, and other contaminants, revitalizing the appearance of different surfaces.

Snow Removal
-
Our snow removal services clears your driveway, as well as your walkway and front stoop. Our crews are dispatched once snow reaches 2” in accumulation. Snow blowers are used as they deliver far superior results when compared to a plow. In addition, they are much easier on the surface of your driveway, especially paver and asphalt.
-
$130 per visit (standard size driveways)
Winter Patio/Deck Prep
-
Our seasonal outdoor concierge service takes the work out of closing and reopening your outdoor living space each year. At the end of the season, our team will carefully remove and organize your patio furniture, planters, fire pits, outdoor décor, umbrellas, hose reels, and other seasonal items, storing everything neatly in your garage, basement, or another designated area. If you don't have the space, we also offer off-site storage options. Before anything is moved, we photograph your entire outdoor living space so every item can be returned to the same location and arrangement the following spring. During the off-season, we can also repair damaged furniture and clean, stain, or treat wood furniture before bringing it back out for the new season. When warmer weather returns, we'll deliver everything, place it exactly where it belongs, and have your outdoor space ready to enjoy.

Salt
-
Although not required, we do recommend salt every time your driveway gets cleared. We use calcium magnesium acetate, which is generally less corrosive and gentler on concrete than traditional rock salt.
-
Salt application: $10–$25 per visit, depending on the total square footage of the driveway, walkway, and stoop.
Christmas Lighting
-
We make holiday decorating easy with custom Christmas light installation for your home. Our team handles the setup, upkeep, and takedown, so you can enjoy the season without dealing with the ladders and tangled lights!
