By Season

What a maintenance program covers by season

Spring: debris removal and pruning, bed edging with pre-emergent, and fresh mulch. Summer: weekly mowing, edging and weed control, fertilizing, pest management and irrigation monitoring. Fall: leaf removal three times through the fall season. Winter: lighter monthly visits, with snow and ice management as an add-on.

These cleanup tasks replace the separate fall and spring cleanup page we used to run for commercial sites. Residential cleanups are on our seasonal cleanups page.

We had them remove old pavers from our small backyard, patio, install new ones, build a retaining wall, regrade the backyard after a fence move, and reseed an area of the backyard. They did a great job and we are very happy with the work as well as the professionalism of the team. We were surprised at how quickly the seeded…

I have used Green Acres since 2016 for mowing and landscaping. My lawn is a steep hill and the staff does an amazing job. I have a large mulch area that Green Acres does each spring. I am extremely pleased and recommend them for any lawn care needs.

Commercial Property Manager here ! We recently made the switch to Green Acres from another "popular" commercial lawn care company. After increases in pricing and steady decline in services, care, and pride in craftsmanship we knew that it was time to make a change. Green Acres has been great in understanding our needs- we are a dual property with a…

FAQ

Commercial landscaping and lawn care in Wilmington, DE: common questions

Green Acres crew maintaining the grounds of a commercial office building
How do I choose between commercial landscape maintenance companies near me?

Compare the same things across bids: tasks and frequency by season, areas covered, how visits are communicated, insurance certificates, and how quickly the company responds to requests. Ask for references from similar properties. Green Acres writes customized programs for each commercial property.

What do commercial landscape maintenance services include?

Typical scope covers mowing, edging, weed control, fertilizing, pruning, mulching, pest management and spring and fall cleanups, with monitoring of existing irrigation. Snow and ice management can be added for winter. Your proposal lists exactly which tasks apply to your property.

How often should commercial properties be serviced?

Frequency depends on property size and landscape needs. Most commercial clients benefit from weekly or bi-weekly maintenance during the growing season and monthly visits in the winter. We set the schedule in the proposal and adjust it by season.

How does a commercial landscaping proposal work?

Contact us with the property address and type. We walk the site, then send a written scope that lists tasks, frequency and any add-ons such as snow service. You review it, ask questions and decide. Contact us for a free on-site consultation.

Can you manage large estates and multi-acre grounds?

Yes. We maintain large private grounds with mowing, watering, pruning, fertilizing, hedge trimming, soil testing and planting design, as ongoing service or one-off jobs. See the estates and large properties section on this page for what a program can cover.

Do you offer snow removal with commercial maintenance?

Yes. Snow and ice management can be added to a landscape maintenance relationship so one team covers the site year round. Per-push and seasonal options exist, and contracts are best signed before winter. See our commercial snow and ice management page.
