Lawn care and landscaping in Elk Rapids, Michigan.

Elk Rapids lawns sit between Elk Lake and the East Arm of Grand Traverse Bay, with village yards and lakefront lots.

Around Elk Rapids

Lawn care and landscaping for Elk Rapids.

Elk Rapids sits between Elk Lake and the East Arm of Grand Traverse Bay, with the Elk River running through town. That means a lot of lakefront and riverside lawns, plus village yards near River Street and the Edward C. Grace Memorial Harbor on Cedar Street. Weekly mowing, striping, and trimming and edging suit both. Commercial grounds near the downtown and US-31 get the same treatment.

A short season means spring and fall cleanup and beds and borders have to be timed right. Before freeze-up the irrigation lines get blown out with a compressor at the truck, every zone, until the heads spray only air. Owners who are away for the winter should book that early. A free estimate is one call away.

Questions

Lawn care and landscaping in Elk Rapids: questions.

Do you mow village lots and lakefront in Elk Rapids?

Home lawns, lakefront and commercial grounds are all part of the work. Mowing is weekly, with striping, trimming and edging. Call and ask for a free estimate. Spring and fall cleanup and beds and borders can go on the same estimate.

I am away from my Elk Rapids place in winter. Who blows out the sprinklers?

Irrigation blowouts are a fall service: a compressor at the truck, every zone blown out until the heads spray only air. Call before you leave for the season and ask for a free estimate.

Do you cut grass in Elk Rapids?

Yes. Elk Rapids is in Antrim County, inside the Northern Michigan area we cover. Estimates are free. Call Traverse City on 231-944-8752 or use the form on this page and tell us the address.

What else can you do on a property in Elk Rapids besides mowing?

Spring and fall cleanups, beds and borders, irrigation blowouts, snow removal and ice management, power washing and soft washing, and parking lot or street sweeping. One crew and one number, all year.

Do you blow out sprinkler systems in Elk Rapids?

Yes, in the fall, before the freeze. We hook the compressor up at the truck, run the line to your system and push the water out of every zone, so nothing is left in the pipes to freeze and crack over the winter.
