Around Oscoda
Lawn care and landscaping for Oscoda.
Yards around Oscoda run from in-town lots to cottages on Lake Huron, Van Etten Lake and the Au Sable River. Plenty of them are second homes that sit empty for stretches, so the grass gets long between visits and the beds fill with leaves. Mowing is weekly, with striping, trimming and edging. Spring and fall cleanup and bed and border work cover the rest.
For commercial grounds we mow, trim and edge, then sweep parking lots and streets once summer starts. Before the ground freezes, a sprinkler system needs its lines blown out. We run a compressor at the truck and clear every zone until the heads spray only air. Free estimates by phone, on either of our lines.

Questions
Lawn care and landscaping in Oscoda: questions.
Can you mow a cottage near Oscoda while the owners are away?
Weekly mowing includes trimming and edging, so a place that sits empty stays kept. Call the Alpena or Traverse City line, give us the address and how often you want it cut, and we will give you a free estimate.
When do sprinkler lines need blowing out around Oscoda?
Before the ground freezes in fall. Water left in the lines can crack pipe and heads. A compressor at the truck pushes air through every zone until the heads spray only air. We blow lines out; we do not install or repair irrigation.
Do you cut grass in Oscoda?
Yes. Oscoda is in Iosco 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 Oscoda 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 Oscoda?
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.
