Our professional landscaping firm provides lawn care for every household in The Ridge (see descriptions below), primarily front and side lawn service. The cost for this service is included in your annual homeowners dues. At an additional cost to the homeowner the Landscaper can also do more advanced service such as plant annuals, provide additional rejuvenational pruning, sod, tree service and distribute mulch.
OLM is the firm that directs our landspacer and also provides the landscape report. Limitations to service do apply. We are a low maintenance community but that doesn’t mean no maintenance. Homeowners are required to maintain their properties.
