Whether you’re a commercial property manager looking for maintenance advice or design tips, there are plenty of commercial landscaping blogs that provide answers to your questions. We know that you’re busy, so we wanted to bring a collection of these types of blogs directly to you.
Properly maintaining and caring for a commercial landscape requires a multi-step approach. What separates each step of this process is not just the time it takes to complete the task, but also the commercial landscaping equipment it requires — a list that tends to be quite lengthy.
Here’s a look at some items you’ll typically see on a commercial landscaping equipment list.
When the weather is nice, it’s natural for homeowners to want to get outside and enjoy their lawns. This could come in the form of hosting barbecues and pool parties, or something as simple as watching children and pets play together.
While this makes for great experiences, the same isn’t true for your lawn. Heavy foot traffic can ultimately wear out your lawn, thus affecting its health and appearance. (Meanwhile, shady areas that receive far less traffic tend to remain stable.)
Can I do it myself? It’s a question many homeowners ponder when it comes to the installation of sprinkler systems, and that’s for good reason — on the surface, there’s a lot of appeal to saving installation costs, as well as honing your own landscaping skills.
While the proper installation of an irrigation system is crucial to its performance, the importance of irrigation system maintenance can’t be overstated. Think about it like this: You purchase a new car but never change the oil. As time goes on, the engine will start to feel the effects of this missed maintenance step, running less efficiently and eventually wearing itself out.
Out with the old (manual watering practices), and in with the new (irrigation systems). That’s the stance of many homeowners — some of whom have already made the move to a sprinkler system and others who are looking to do so soon.
Finding ways to increase commercial property value is an important focus for building owners. The good news is that this doesn’t have to translate into a complete overhaul. With a few minor improvements, building owners can reduce operational costs and enhance the market value of their commercial property. This enables them to increase rent rates under their ownership, and earn back more profits when the time comes to sell.
Lawn maintenance and landscape maintenance are common terms. While the two may seem synonymous in nature, they actually represent very different approaches to property care.
To manage expectations for commercial property maintenance, it’s important that property managers fully understand what lawn maintenance and landscape maintenance entail.
It’s no secret that piles of snow in parking lots and walkways can create headaches for business owners. There are limited parking spaces for employees and visitors. Individuals struggle to enter and exit the building.
While commercial snow removal helps to combat these issues and keep properties clear, only half the battle is won. Businesses need to invest in both snow and ice management to establish an effective winter landscape maintenance plan — and here’s why.
In just a few weeks — December 21 to be exact — the winter season will officially be here. But what will this season bring to Northeast Ohio? Will temperatures be frigid? Will more or less snow accumulate than in previous years?
While the answers to these questions may have been a surprise in past years, we wanted to provide you with a clear indicator of what’s ahead. Here’s a glimpse into the winter weather outlook for Northeast Ohio in 2019-2020.
