Stormwater and Cleanup
Rain and snowmelt can carry material from driveways, sidewalks, and streets into storm drains and local waterways. Grass, leaves, fertilizer, fuel, and other lawn materials should be kept out of drains and waterways.
I blow loose grass from the paved surfaces included in the service scope. Drainage concerns must be identified before heavy equipment or material is placed in a wet area.
Green Oaks Property Fit
I review accessible turf area, terrain, trees, landscape beds, gates, obstacles, driveway layout, leaf volume, and the requested scope before confirming service.
A front gate at least 36 inches wide is required for standard backyard mowing equipment. If access is narrower, I may offer front-yard-only service or decline the property.
