At Fox Landscape, we know commercial turf management shouldn't be a source of stress for property managers or HOA boards in the western Chicago suburbs. Manage it better with true professionals.
Managing a sprawling commercial lawn requires far more than just cutting the grass; it requires systematic planning, proactive monitoring, and expert execution. Fox Landscape's comprehensive lawn maintenance programs are designed so your business doesn't have to worry about a thing, and that includes budgeting.
Fox Landscape’s fixed-contract annual plans provide a unified approach to your property's turf. We take a business-first approach to your property, allowing you to focus on your day-to-day operations while we expertly manage the health, safety, and aesthetics of your grounds. Our grounds team handles every aspect of your lawn's health from April through November, executing the following core services.
Fox Landscape performs precise, weekly mowing to maintain an optimal turf height of 3 to 4 inches. Our professional crews keep mower blades sharp to ensure a clean cut, and we alternate our mowing patterns every week to permit the recycling of clippings and maintain a neat, pristine appearance. We also perform weekly whip trimming along all foundations, bed edges, and areas inaccessible to our mowers.
Turf health begins and ends with thorough seasonal cleanups. Our April spring cleanup prepares your lawn for the growing season by removing accumulated winter debris and applying granular pre-emergent to control broadleaf weeds. In November, we conduct a final fall cleanup to completely remove leaves and fall debris from all turf areas, ensuring your grass is perfectly prepped for winter.
Feeding your lawn is critical for vibrant, green growth. We manage a comprehensive fertilization and weed control program, utilizing premium grade granular fertilizers, pre-emergent crabgrass control, and broadleaf weed control across multiple applications (April-May, June-July, and August-September). We also incorporate core aeration during the spring application to promote deep root growth.
A healthy lawn can turn overnight if pests or diseases are ignored. We actively inspect your property throughout the year for signs of insect or disease damage. We proactively report any concerns directly to your Managing Agent and provide a swift plan of attack to treat specific problems before they spread.
What truly sets our commercial turf management apart is our dedication to oversight. We manage your property so you don't have to. For quality control purposes, our dedicated area managers conduct ongoing site inspections every single week.
Furthermore, your account manager will conduct a formal property analysis twice a contract year. We highly encourage property managers, building engineers, and board members to attend these walks so we can engage in productive dialogue about your property's long-term turf and landscape maintenance goals.
Because our ownership team includes an MBA in finance, we expertly help you plan and navigate future capital and maintenance budgets, ensuring your property constantly improves without financial surprises.
When you partner with us, you are choosing a client-centric mentality backed by over 50 years of combined industry experience.
Yes. To ensure the highest level of safety and compliance, all of our granular fertilizer and weed control materials are applied by heavily vetted, Illinois licensed applicators according to state regulations. We expertly manage this partnership so you only ever have to deal with one point of contact.
We alternate our mowing patterns weekly to permit the healthy recycling of grass clippings back into the earth. Excess clippings are removed as needed, but open turf areas generally will not have clippings collected, while small turf areas will have clippings collected only when necessary to maintain a neat appearance.
We maintain a strict schedule to service your property the same day every week, and all turf is targeted to be cut by Friday at 5 PM. However, if severe weather or a holiday disrupts this schedule, we will cut the grass on the weekend to ensure your weekly cutting is completed at no additional charge.
Your commercial lawn requires consistent, professional care to truly thrive. If you are ready to hand over the stress of property management to a team of dedicated professionals, let's discuss your grounds. Give Fox Landscape a call or message us online!
