Caring For Your Landscape Just Got Easier

If you are like most people, you work hard all week, shuffle the kids to all of their activities, cook, clean …. The weekend comes and all you really want to do is kick up your feet and enjoy some down time. The last thing you probably want to do is mow the lawn, pull the weeds, prune the shrubs…The alternative? Hire a company of unqualified, unprofessional people who may or may not show up to do the work. It can drive you crazy, can’t it?

This is where we come in. We are Allentuck Landscaping Company.  A local company staffed with professional, trained landscapers. We have been creating and caring for the area’s most beautiful landscapes for over 26 years. We make it easy.

We have five outstanding programs designed to make sure your landscape always looks its best and to make sure that you, our customer, never need to worry about it.

Available Landscape Programs

TotalScapes is our most complete program and includes the care of both your lawn and your landscape gardens. Weekly service includes mowing, weeding and pruning. Turf applications are designed to keep your lawn lush, green and weed free. Seasonal services such as mulching, fertilizing and leaf removal keep your gardens healthy. Your lawn will benefit from aerating, seeding and pH adjustment.

LandscapeGardenScape is designed for those customers who only need help maintaining their garden plants. In this we include mulching, weeding, pruning, fertilizing and leaf removal.

TurfScapes keep your lawn the envy of the neighborhood. The grass will be greener on your side of the fence through proper fertilizing, weed control, aerating and seeding.

Deer DeFence protects your landscape investment from deer through the use of organic products that really work. What is the point of having a beautiful landscape if it is just going to be destroyed by deer?

Mosquito & Tick Control allows you to actually spend time in your landscape without the fear of being bitten by pesky, disease carrying insects. We use an organic product to create a barrier that protects you and your family.
