Residential Maintenance

Skilled landscape maintenance is the magic behind every stunning residential landscape. From lush flowers to healthy, strong trees, Sposato Landscape has the expertise and professionalism to nurture your home’s landscape throughout the year. Our residential maintenance plans are designed to meet the diverse needs of residents and keep your plantings and lawn in the best condition possible, whether it’s the middle of a hot Ocean City summer or a crisp Fenwick Island fall. Depending on your needs, we can customize an a la carte selection of our residential maintenance services to meet your specific requirements and beautify your home.

Mowing


To promote a lush, healthy lawn, Sposato Landscape mows at a height of 3 ½ to 4 inches. By mowing at this height, your lawn will grow a deeper root system and crowd weeds that would normally invade when the turf is stressed and fragile. Your yard will also be able to weather periods of infrequent watering or drought much better as a result. After the mowing process is complete, all hard surfaces will be power edged. We always leave your yard better than we found it and blow away debris from walkways, driveways, porches, and patios.

Seasonal Clean-Ups

At the start of the spring and the end of the fall, it’s important to invest extra time into your landscape. Sposato Landscape can complete your spring or fall clean-up and get your property looking brand new in no time. Seasonal clean-ups include everything from cleaning up leaves to cleaning your flowerbeds and bushes.

Seasonal Plantings

Annual flowers are perfect for creating a bright pop of seasonal color in any yard. Seasonal plantings can be added in the spring and the fall. Our landscape designers can work with you to curate the perfect bright burst of color in your yard.

Weed Control

Sposato takes a comprehensive approach to weed control, using both hand-weeding and pre- and post-emergent herbicide applications. We treat beds, walkways, and drives and visit throughout the year to ensure weeds are at bay.

Edging, Mulching, and Bed Clean-Up


Clean bed lines give your residential property major curb appeal, so Sposato takes extra care when completing your edging, mulching, and bed clean-up. All of your beds will be edged and mulched with hardwood, double-shredded mulch.

Grading and Drainage

Without the proper grading and drainage, any landscape will not be able to live up to its fullest potential. Sposato Landscape designers and installers are experienced in the important and detailed grading process and can grade your new home for the first time or re-grade your home before installing a new landscape.
