Consistent mowing is the foundation of a great lawn. We mow at the proper height for your turf type, keep lines clean, and help your grass grow thicker over time.
What’s included (typical):
- Mowing with professional equipment
-String trimming around edges, beds, fences, and obstacles
-Blowing off driveways, sidewalks, patios, and walkways
-Optional bagging or clippings management based on your preferences
Routine mowing helps reduce weeds, improves density, and keeps your yard looking neat week after week.

Weeds don’t just look bad—they compete with your grass for sunlight, water, and nutrients. SPS provides weed control strategies that help reduce existing weeds while preventing new ones from taking over.
Common issues we help manage:
- Broadleaf weeds
- Invasive seasonal growth
- Weed spread in thin or stressed turf
- Weeds around beds, edges, and transitions
A strong lawn is the best defense, and weed control works best when combined with proper mowing and fertilization.

Leaves left on the lawn can smother grass, block sunlight, and create damp conditions that lead to disease and bare spots. SPS provides leaf removal so your property stays clean and your lawn stays healthy through fall and beyond.
We remove heavy leaf coverage efficiently and leave your yard looking open, clean, and refreshed.

Overgrown shrubs can make a yard look messy fast—and improper cutting can damage plants. SPS trims shrubs to maintain a clean shape while supporting healthy growth.
Ideal for:
- Foundation plantings
- Decorative shrubs and ornamentals
- Keeping growth away from windows, walkways, and structures
We focus on clean cuts and a balanced look so your landscape stays tidy and intentional.

Your lawn is only part of your outdoor space. We also maintain garden areas and planting beds to keep everything clean, defined, and attractive.
Garden maintenance may include:
- Bed weeding and cleanup
- Light trimming and shaping of plants
- Debris removal and refreshing the look of beds
- Keeping borders presentable and under control
If your beds are starting to look “wild,” we’ll bring them back to a clean, cared-for look.

If your lawn is struggling—thin areas, discoloration, or poor growth—soil testing can reveal what’s happening beneath the surface. Soil conditions vary widely across Summerville and Charleston, and the right plan starts with knowing what your lawn actually needs.
Soil testing can help identify:
- pH imbalance
- Nutrient deficiencies
- Soil conditions affecting root health
With the right information, you can make smarter decisions about fertilization and treatments instead of guessing.

The Lowcountry climate can be tough on lawns. Proper fertilization gives your grass the nutrients it needs to stay green, resist stress, and recover faster from heat and foot traffic.
Our fertilization approach is based on your lawn’s needs and seasonal timing—so you aren’t wasting money on treatments that don’t match your soil or turf conditions.

Compacted soil makes it harder for water, oxygen, and nutrients to reach roots. Aeration relieves soil compaction and helps your lawn breathe—especially important for high-traffic yards or turf that struggles to stay thick.
Aeration can help:
- Improve water absorption
- Strengthen root development
- Reduce runoff and pooling
- Support thicker turf growth over time
It’s one of the best seasonal services for long-term lawn health.

Hedges are a statement feature—when they’re maintained correctly. We prune hedges for uniform lines and controlled growth, helping prevent overgrowth that can shade grass, block sightlines, or create pest hiding spots.
Benefits of regular hedge pruning:
- Maintains a crisp, manicured property appearance
- Encourages thicker, healthier hedge growth
- Helps prevent hedge thinning and bare spots
