At B & B Maintenance we specialize in the maintenance of lawns and gardens like yours. We offer a variety of maintenance programs that are tailored to your landscape and your lifestyle. You will be free to enjoy the outdoors rather than have to work on it. Your yard will look great and you will feel great.

Lawn Care
Our lawn care service will give your lawn a well manicured look. Each lawn care visit includes mowing, edging and trimming of all turf areas. With edging, we remove the grass that grows over patios, sidewalks, driveways, and walkways due to the buildup of soil deposits at the edge of your lawn. In the areas our mowers just can’t reach we use a string-trimmer to trim the grass to the same height the mower would have cut it. Finally, we remove all the clippings from the sidewalk, curb, driveway, and patio.

Bed & Boarder Maintenance
Bed and border maintenance is an optional service that can be added to weekly lawn care. This service consists of weeding, cultivating all beds, dead heading, cutting back, and the removal of any dead or diseased herbaceous plants. It gives your beds that fresh and healthy look all year long.

Landscaping
Would you like a new flowerbed? Remove an old one? Plant a tree? Does your landscape need a face lift? Are you moving and wish to increase curb appeal? Do you want to add interest with some outdoor lighting? From planting flowers to designing entire landscapes, we are happy to improve the appearance of the exterior of your home. Even if you're not exactly sure what needs to be done to make your house into your dream home, give us a call.

Flower Plantings
We can help you create a stunning display of flowers to add to your homes curb appeal. This ranges from annuals to spring bulbs to summer flowers to fall mums. Adding a little touch of color to each season adds prestige and a positive image to any home.

Mulch Installation
Give your plants a healthy place to grow by starting them in a well-prepared bed. This will give your plants a better chance of adjusting to their surroundings. All beds and borders will be weeded and a precise "V edge" will be installed. A fresh 1-4” application of mulch will be applied where desired. A fresh application of mulch will give plants a healthy start in their new surroundings and will slow the growth of unwanted weeds in the future. Many times if the soil isn’t ready for the flowers, the flowers will not take well and may die.

Bed Trenching
The bed trenching service defines the concrete borders of your lawn and gives it a clean manicured look. Turf overgrowth (both grass and soil) onto concrete is natural and can take away from the overall appearance of your lawn. Trenching removes this overgrown turf and gives your lawn a crisp razor sharp edge appearance. Bed trenching is recommended annually; as the quality of the trench will naturally diminish throughout the year. The more often you trench, the less overgrowth there is. This keeps your edges looking good all season.

Weed Maintenance
Flower and garden beds will be hand weeded to remove unwanted weeds and shrub growth. Driveways, walkways, patios, and street curb lines are weeded and an optional weed deterrent may be applied. Weeds can become an unsightly problem if not maintained properly. Weed maintenance is recommenced once each moth. Some properties may require multiple visits due to high exposure to water and sunlight.

Spring Clean Up
For your spring clean up we will cut back your perennials, remove dead wood from ornamental plants, remove leaves and debris from lawn and beds, and ready your planting beds for your new flowers.

Fall Leaf Clean Up
It is important to make an investment in a proper fall clean up to ensure a healthy lawn next spring. The fall leaf clean up service gets all the fallen leaves and debris removed from your lawn and beds. The collected leaves will be hauled away and properly dumped. This service of leaf removal prevents mold and other diseases from forming and over the cold winter months. Fall cleanup can be done with a one-time visit approach, or during each lawn maintenance visit throughout the fall season to keep your property looking top-notch.

Tree Pruning
We will prune your trees so that they remain healthy, are aesthetically pleasing, and serve well in the space that they occupy. Pruning improves the shape and size of the tree by removing unwanted branches and leaves that may hinder the growth or overall look of the tree.

Hedging & Pruning
Hedges and shrubs are trimmed as needed to maintain shape, fullness, and bloom. This also keeps them healthy and under control. Hedge and shrub trimming is recommended 3 times each season. Not trimming will cause hedges and shrubs to grow in with an uncontrolled shape.

  Fertilization
We will devise a balanced fertilization program that gives your lawn uniform growth throughout the season. This way your lawn will grow healthy above and below the ground. Weed control is also available to prevent and control broadleafs, clover, and crabgrass with environmentally safe methods.

Overseeding
Overseeding is essentially planting a new lawn right over your existing lawn. Overseeding doesn't disturb your existing grass; it simply adds more seed to it. Overseeding essentially fills in the gaps in your lawn where the original grass didn't grow in right. Overseeding is a good thing to do for any lawn that just needs a little boost.

Sod Installation
Sometimes waiting for grass to grow just takes too long! If you would like a beautiful lawn without the waiting, then sod may be the perfect solution. It can turn your yard from brown and patchy to lush and green in as little as one day! Sod is ideal for new construction homes, as well as homes where the grass has died or the seed never came up.

Gutter Cleaning
Cleaning of the roofs, rain gutters and downspouts is a critical part of prudent, annual maintenance. Our programs allow the entire gutter system to function and achieve its maximum life expectancy. We make sure all loose debris is removed from both flat and sloped roof areas, all rain gutters are cleaned by hand and rinsed clean with water, and each downspout is flushed thoroughly and checked from ground level to assure proper flow. The gutters, siding and grounds are left clean and spotless. Gutter cleaning is recommended in both the spring and fall to ensure your gutter system is properly functioning.

Power Washing
Over time, properties become weathered by dirt and grime accumulating on walkways, curbs, sidewalks, siding, pool areas, dumpster areas and high traffic areas. Occasionally, this develops into a "slip and fall" hazard. Our power washing programs restore these areas to their original luster, making an enormous difference in the appearance of the entire site.

Rubbish Removal
We will remove almost anything, from old furniture and appliances to garden waste and renovation debris. We do all the loading and cleanup, wherever the items are – you do not need to get it to the curb.

Demolition
In addition to hauling away rubbish and junk, we can perform light demolition of sheds, decks, fences, pools, etc. So if you are thinking of tearing down your old yard structure, we can handle that too. We will tear it down and haul it away.

Parking Lot Maintenance
In For our commercial clients, parking lot maintenance is available to clean asphalt and concrete areas of all sand, litter, and debris. Parking lot maintenance is recommended each and every month to reduce accumulation of unwanted sand and debris. After the winter season, left over sand and salt will be cleared from the parking lot and all walkways. Our parking lot maintenance service will keep your parking areas clean and free of unsightly litter and troublesome sand.

Sprinkler Winterization
In late September or early October, it is time to close your irrigation system. Removal or water from your system is an important preventive measure in maintaining your irrigation system over its' lifetime and significantly reduces the risk of damage to the pipes, valves and sprinklers. Sprinkler winterization includes blowing out your sprinkler lines with compressed air to clear all water, opening the proper drains and turning off your controller.

Snow Removal
We offer complete snow removal, shoveling and salting services in a timely fashion. We can tailor a snow removal plan to fit your needs. We clear your driveway and all walkways of snow and ice. We can be there any time there's a "dusting" or when there is an accumulation. You decide.
