Services
Lawn Maintenance
Our comprehensive lawn maintenance includes weekly mowing, seasonal cleanups, and debris removal. We develop customized care plans considering grass type, soil conditions, and client preferences. Services maintain optimal lawn health through proper mowing techniques, thatch management, and nutrient recycling practices.
Landscaping Services
We offer complete landscaping solutions from initial design to ongoing maintenance. Our services include mulch installation, shrub pruning, tree trimming, and garden bed preparation. Professional teams implement sustainable practices while maintaining aesthetic appeal through strategic plant selection and hardscape integration.
Organic Fertilization
Our organic fertilizer programs utilize natural nutrients that improve soil health while promoting lush growth. The treatment enhances microbial activity, reduces chemical dependency, and creates safer outdoor environments. Applications follow seasonal cycles to maximize nutrient absorption and lawn resilience.
Irrigation Services
We provide full-cycle irrigation management including system installation, seasonal maintenance, and water efficiency optimization. Services cover spring startup, mid-season adjustments, and winterization. Our technicians ensure proper coverage patterns and water conservation through smart controller programming.
Lawn Aeration
Mechanical and microbial aeration services improve soil structure by creating pathways for air, water, and nutrients. Core aeration reduces compaction, enhances root development, and improves fertilizer absorption. Recommended as part of seasonal maintenance programs for optimal turf health.

Report
Rettmann recently came out and removed edging, small tree stumps, and then tilled in an old neglected garden for me. They did an absolutely excellent job. They cleaned it up even more than I expected, removed all debris. They really took pride in their work and raked it out so that it was level and even with the surrounding lawn, taking care in preparing it knowing I was going to lay down seed. Even after tilling, they raked out small rocks and random roots which I didn't even expect. While I was taking a look, they gave me some advice about laying down grass seed and the like. I could not have
