What We Do

Make the cold months count

Winter is quiet for most yards. It is a good time to prune, clean up and get ready for spring.

✂️

Winter Shrub & Tree Pruning

Many deciduous trees and shrubs are easier to shape when they are dormant and leafless. Spring-flowering shrubs like lilac and forsythia are better pruned after they bloom, so we plan around that.

🍂

Late Leaf Cleanup

The last leaves come off lawns and out of beds so turf is not smothered under them.

🌱

Dormant Seeding

Seed is spread on thin areas in the cold months. It sits until the soil warms in spring, then gets going.

🧤

Winter Prep

Perennials cut back where it makes sense, beds cleaned up, and mulch refreshed so the property is ready for spring.

📅

Spring Pre-Booking

Get on the spring schedule early for cleanups, planting, patios and drainage, before the calendar fills.

🎄

Holiday Lights

Want the property to glow this season? See our Holiday Lights page.

🧱

Dry-Day Projects

A dry winter day is a good day for hardscaping and drainage work. Ask us what fits your site.

Questions

Winter Services FAQ

Do you plow snow?
No. We do not offer snow removal. In winter we focus on pruning, cleanup, dormant seeding, hardscape and drainage work, and holiday lights.
Is winter a good time to prune?
For many deciduous trees and shrubs, yes. With the leaves off, the branch structure is easy to see and easier to shape. Spring-flowering shrubs such as lilac and forsythia are better pruned right after they bloom, so we plan around that.
What is dormant seeding?
Dormant seeding means spreading grass seed on thin areas during the cold months. The seed sits until the soil warms in spring, then gets going on its own.
Can I book spring work now?
Yes. Getting on the spring schedule early works well for cleanups, planting, patios and drainage. Call or text 816-499-9204 and we will plan it with you.
What areas do you serve?
We are based in the Kansas City Northland and serve Gladstone, North Kansas City, Liberty and the surrounding metro within about 30 miles.
