U.S. Lawns franchises offer grounds care for commercial properties of all sorts including hospitals, community colleges, shopping centers, apartment complexes, and so forth.Our services include landscape maintenance (mowing, trimming, blowing), seasonal color design and installation, irrigation, fertilization and plant health, and snow and ice management (along with others too numerous to list here!).

No. U.S. Lawns offers quality and responsive service to commercial customers only. Any residential work we do is tied to the multi-family market vertical, such as: homeowners’ associations, apartment communities, and condominium associations.

Based on our 35+ years of experience in the lawn and landscape industry, we believe it is in your best interest to be solely focused on the commercial market, which is easier to scale and provides significantly higher revenue opportunities — we like working with business professionals who have a strong budget for our services. Furthermore, annual contracts produce year-round recurring revenue.

Some of our conversion franchisees elect to continue working with the residential clients they served before, but they soon find that phasing them out is the best way to continue growing their business.
