Maintaining a functional and beautiful commercial landscape is like completing a puzzle. You need all the pieces and the vision to execute the final product.
This is where an expert’s guidance comes into play. Choosing an experienced partner to take care of your commercial landscape is crucial to a thriving landscape that meets your property’s needs and complements its best features.
The point of a maintenance program is to ensure that your landscape looks great, and things run smoothly all year long. There’s so much more to proper maintenance than regularly trimming the trees and mowing the lawn, in fact, an appropriately tailored maintenance plan will have many parts, no matter the size of the property.
The Differences Between Managing a Residential and Commercial Landscape
If you’re managing a commercial property, you may be wondering how different a residential landscape could be from a commercial one. The answer is a lot.
Which is why partnering with the right landscape team is essential to success. Commercial properties have unique challenges, needs, and opportunities. Commercial landscape projects and care requires different expertise than that of residential projects, which is why you want to find a commercial landscaper who meets the following criteria:
- Design vision and creativity
- Experience with specialized equipment
- Knowledgeable working crews
- Variety of services offered
- Experience in your region (this ensures that the team is knowledgeable about the climate, environment, and other factors of your location)
Our team of trained experts has vast experience working with commercial properties across the region. You can check out our previous projects here to get an idea of what we can do for your commercial property.
Every commercial landscape will have unique needs and challenges, but for the most part, some recurring themes pop up on every maintenance plan. Read on to learn about some of the items we think are essential to a successful commercial landscape maintenance plan.
What Every Commercial Landscape Maintenance Plan Should Include
Every landscape is unique, and your property’s needs will vary due to various factors, but for the most part, the following categories are essential for all commercial landscapes. Here’s a look at some of the items you’ll want to be sure are on your maintenance plan.
Irrigation System Care
We’ll handle regular check-ups, winterization, start-up, and more to ensure that your irrigation system is running smoothly. Managing precious water resources through our technology platforms, including; water auditing, smart controllers, moisture sensors, and flow meters, is essential to a cost-effective, environmentally friendly, and efficiently run landscape.

Overall Health of Landscape
