Landscape Design:
Augusta Green employs a Landscape Architect to assist residential and commercial
customers with their design needs.
We can design landscaping for a new home, add new features to existing landscaping,
or provide a complete landscape renovation for an existing home. Our architect
has the ability to design simple plantings, as well as more complex ones,
including hardscapes. A hardscape design might include brick pavers, retaining
walls, firepits and fireplaces, and outdoor kitchens. When a person utilizes our
installation service to complete the design work, there is no charge for the design service.
Landscape Installation:
Augusta Green can install our designs or ones that a customer already has. We can
install one tree or a truck load of trees. Either way, we offer the same
professional installation and warranties.
Landscape Maintenance:
On a year to year basis all good landscaping will need to be maintained. Spring clean
up is a must in order to get plant beds looking good for the remainder of the year.
This can include hedge trimming, removal of dead winter debris, and mulching. Other
services can be added too. Sometimes our customers want a new plant for the upcoming
year, new annuals, or even new bed lines. If want to make your plant beds look new
again, call us and we can match our services to meet your needs.
Plant Bed Maintenance:
Augusta Green will maintain plant beds and keep them looking like new all year long.
We start by redefining bed edges, trimming shrubs, removing all dead plant debris,
applying a pre-emergent herbicide, and then hand placing a dye-enhanced hardwood mulch.
Customers may choose cheaper mulch than Augusta Green provides. We do not recommend
the cheaper product because it will oxidize and turn gray, while the dye-enhanced mulch
retains its nice brown color. We serve the Indianapolis market as well as Carmel,
Greenfield, Greenwood, Plainfield, and all other surrounding communities. Many customers
will bundle this service with our lawn mowing service. This demands greater accountability
on our behalf and greater pricing benefits for our customers.
Irrigation Services:
Many of our irrigation services are contracted to a fully qualified irrigation
company. Though we contract most of this service, we pass the cost directly
through to our customers. This allows us to provide a turn-key operation for
our customers without greater expenses. Augusta Green is a one stop shop for
all grounds maintenance. We have the ability to serve the greater Indianapolis
market as well as Greenwood, Carmel, Fishers, Greenfield, and Plainfield.
Fertilizing:
Fertilizing and weed control are an integral part of any healthy lawn. Our basic
program is a five step process of granular fertilizer and liquid herbicide.
Since every lawn is a little different a licensed professional examines your
lawn for any specific needs prior to treatment. Other services like grub control,
fungicides and extra fall applications are also available. No lawn is too big or
too small. We have treated 4000 square foot lawns and properties with many acres.
Lawn Mowing:
Augusta Green provides commercial mowing for the Indianapolis area and the surrounding
communities. We treat each commercial lawn as if it is our own. We will mow according
to the customer's specifications, or we can make a site-specific recommendation. Every
site is mowed, groomed, and thoroughly cleaned before our crews leave. No grass clippings
are left on streets or sidewalks. Sidewalk edging is performed with a mechanical edger,
not a weed trimmer. Mowing sounds easy, but the really good lawns have a great amount
of attention to detail.
Bush Hog Mowing:
Mowing the tough stuff is not a glamorous job, but sometimes we have to do
the dirty work, too. If you have an area that has grown out of control,
let us attack it with a flail mower. We can mow a lot of things that are
beyond the reach and capacity of a normal mower.
Winter Services:
Properties must be maintained in the winter season as well as the summer season. Augusta
Green offers snow removal and ice melt applications for residential communities as well
as commercial sites. Many contract options are available so please call and we will
assist to meet your winter needs.
Erosion Control:
Augusta Green knows that erosion and water runoff is a huge issue with local
governments. We provide erosion services that satisfy the requirements of
the local authorities with silt fence and straw matting. Construction sites
that need protection, or runoff swales particularly benefit from this service.
Grading:
Augusta Green has the ability to final grade construction sites prior to seeding,
sodding, etc. The best lawns are the ones that have been graded properly before
the seed or sod has ever been laid. We grade lawns, common areas, swales or any
other area that needs detailed attention.
Downspout Burial:
Many new homes require us to bury downspouts in order to direct water runoff
as far from the home as possible. However, many existing homes benefit from
the same service. Channeling water away from the foundation lowers the
possibility of water damage and basement flooding.
