Gardner Landscaping From a Morris-Based Crew

Gardner properties get a mix of open farmland edges and in-town lots, which means lawns and beds here need different care than a typical subdivision yard. Trotter Landscape Company (TLC) works out of Morris and services Gardner along with nearby towns like Coal City, Braceville, and Dwight. David Trotter and his crew handle garden design, lawn care, irrigation installation and maintenance, and mulch installation for homeowners, businesses, and municipal properties.

What a Mulch and Bed Refresh Actually Includes

When we install mulch, that means clearing old debris and weeds from the bed first, edging a clean line along the border, and laying mulch at a consistent depth so it holds moisture through the summer instead of washing out in the first heavy rain. For garden design work, we plan plant placement around Gardner's soil and sun exposure before anything goes in the ground, rather than working off a generic template.

  • Garden design planned around your yard's actual sun and soil conditions
  • Routine lawn care to keep grass healthy through the growing season
  • Irrigation system installation for new beds and lawns
  • Irrigation system maintenance to catch leaks and clogged heads early
  • Mulch installation with bed prep and clean edging included

Irrigation Checks Before the Ground Dries Out

Sprinkler heads shift, lines crack, and zones fall out of sync over a season of mowing and freeze-thaw cycles. Our irrigation maintenance visits check each zone for even coverage and fix the parts that are wasting water or missing your lawn's edges. If you're putting in a new system, we lay out the zones based on your lawn's actual shape instead of a one-size layout.

We tell Gardner customers the same thing we tell everyone: we're not guessing at bed depth or zone placement, we're building it to hold up through the season.
