Lawn care and landscaping for Johannesburg.
Johannesburg has no town boundary and no census count of its own. It spreads along M-32 in Charlton Township, which had 1,350 people in 2020, mostly on big rural lots. That means wide lawns, fence lines and building edges, with long trimming runs. Weekly mowing, striping, trimming and edging cover homes and commercial grounds.
Spring cleanup clears winter debris, and fall cleanup clears the leaves. Beds and borders are cleaned and edged. Sprinkler systems, where a property has one, are blown out in fall with a compressor at the truck, every zone until the heads spray only air. Power washing handles driveways, patios, siding and walkways. Estimates are free by phone.

Questions
Lawn care and landscaping in Johannesburg: questions.
Can you mow an acre or more outside Johannesburg?
Large lawns are mowed weekly with trimming and edging. The price follows the size and shape of the lawn, which we look at for a free estimate. Call the Alpena or Traverse City line with the address.
Do you do spring cleanup for a rural property near M-32?
Spring cleanup clears the winter's debris from lawn and beds, and beds and borders get a clean edge. It is a separate visit from mowing, and many owners book the fall cleanup alongside it.
Do you cut grass in Johannesburg?
Yes. Johannesburg is in Otsego County, inside the Northern Michigan area we cover. Estimates are free. Call Alpena on 989-255-5800 or use the form on this page and tell us the address.
What else can you do on a property in Johannesburg 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 Johannesburg?
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.
