Latest Update

 

UPDATED WEDNESDAY, MAY 14:

**next update will be published in late May

The beginning of May kicked off our landscape season! Basically on-time for a normal starting point. Sometimes we can start as early as late April, but this season was early May. Here we go! A long season ahead!

REGULAR LANDSCAPE BED MAINTENANCE: It has been hot and dry to start our season during the first half of May. Actually record breaking heat at times. Very strange! So, yes, we are seeing some weeds popping up in landscape beds, but not a lot. We have started to treat some beds already, and will continue to do so for the rest of May and through June. NO PRUNING UNITL JULY! Focus will just be managing the looks of landscaped beds, and if you are signed up for our “regular maintenance” for weeding/chemical treatments for weeds (not in lawns, but in landscaped areas) - we will get around to everyone one-time, maybe some two-times by the end of June. If you do have more weeds than you want, please EMAIL CRAIG and we will do our best to get there as soon as we can.

WE CALL THIS “THE BUSY SEASON” - and this includes landscaping. Our biggest services for May and June usually are Mulch, Dirt/Seed, & Sod. These are the big 3. Most of our larger projects start taking place in July and go through the rest of the summer. Until then, we want to get all properties dressed up and ready to go for mulch/dirt/seed & sod, but remember, we do A LOT MORE!

Our schedule is busy, yes, and we will be doing the best we can to get to all approved jobs as soon as possible over the next couple of months. If you are a NEW CUSTOMER looking to get an estimate, please go to our FREE ESTIMATES page to submit your request.

Quick note: SPRING GUTTER CLEANING has been completed for the season. Our next “planned” gutter cleaning service will take place in July and we call this “mid-summer gutter cleaning”.

If you have an approved job that is currently on C N’R schedule and you are looking for an approximate time frame of when it gets done, please EMAIL CRAIG. We will do our best to answer your questions.

UPDATED FRIDAY, MAY 2:

**next update will be published around the middle of May

We have now hit the month of May, and the month of May is the time C N’R really starts to work on landscape projects.

FIRST OF ALL - FOR LANDSCAPE BED MAINTENANCE? If you are on our “weeding” schedule, or chemical treatment schedule for landscape beds (not lawns) - sometime during the 2nd half of May is when we will start getting to weeds, because we want them all to start coming in. Post-emergent weed killer for mulched areas or rock areas only kills weeds on contact, it does not prevent much. Therefore, we want more weeds present when we arrive for the first time.

SPRING GUTTER CLEANING? Sometimes we complete gutter cleaning during our spring cleaning service, and sometimes after. This season we are completing gutter cleaning jobs after because tree buds/debris are dropping late. Our landscape project crew will end up cleaning gutters during the first half of May as we mix this service in with landscape projects. In turn, this will slow down our projects somewhat during the first half of May.

FOR LANDSCAPE PROJECTS? Our focus early on is dirt/seed/sod/mulch. At the time of this update, our vendor does not have sod available, so we will need to wait until they do. Likely during the 2nd or 3rd week of May it will start becoming regularly available. Dirt and seed jobs small to big will be coordinated into our schedule just as fast as we can. Mulch jobs, especially ones with deadlines, will get done as we progress through the month of May, but mulch jobs will likely fill our schedule through the entire month of June. If you get mulched in May or June, that is still pretty early.

If you are already on C N’R’s project list for a certain project of sort, and you are looking for timing? You can EMAIL CRAIG and we will do our best in answering schedule questions. To be honest, at the time of this update, we are just getting going, so it is difficult to promise much scheduling until we get more organized.

Any further questions, please EMAIL CRAIG.

UPDATED FRIDAY, APRIL 25:

At the time of this update, we have not yet hit the CN'R landscape season. Our approximate plan is to finish spring clean ups and lawn de-thatching work early during the week of April 28th. Then, most of the rest of that week, landscapers will likely work on gutter cleaning and maybe some smaller projects. And then mowing team members will start focusing on mowing as we all move away from spring clean up work. Then, the week of May 5th, we should get more steady with landscape projects such as mulch, dirt/seed, some sod once available, etc. The plan will be to focus more on dirt/seed jobs early on which includes fixing snow plow damaged areas or salt damaged areas.

If you are an existing CN’R customer for other services and are interested in getting a project completed this spring/early summer, please go to FREE ESTIMATES  and submit your request.

If you are a NEW customer, same thing. Please go to FREE ESTIMATES  and submit your request. Craig will respond as soon as possible for all possible project requests!

**the next update will likely be posted on or around April 23rd**
Please EMAIL CRAIG if you have any specific questions you need answered until then

UPDATED SUNDAY, APRIL 13, 2025:

C N’R landscape crew members have completed some smaller requests for early cut-back to shrubs per se and some mulch jobs with heavily populated areas of perennials (before they start coming up). Other than these types of jobs, our #1 focus for all team members at C N’R for the mid-late April days will be spring clean up, lawn de-thatching, fertilizer, water feature cleaning along with sprinkler system start ups, and then the kick off of our mowing season. And speaking of the “kick-off” of our mowing season, that is about when we will “officially” start our landscaping season. Earlier season jobs included a lot of mulching, dirt/seed, and sodding. C N’R does do a lot more, but these are the most popular early on!

If you are looking to receive pricing on your desired project for the upcoming season, please go to FREE ESTIMATES  and we will work together from there.

If you are a current customers with an approved job waiting to get done, at the time of this update, it is still too early to talk scheduling. Just expect us to get started with jobs late April and early May.

If you do have in hand a job that has been quoted by C N’R, please approve as early as possible for earlier scheduling.

We will update again later in April here.

UPDATED THURSDAY, MARCH 20TH, 2025:

We have had another winter with the lack of good snow cover and are coming into April (at least at the time of this update) with not much snow on the ground at all. This gets people excited for getting their yards worked on sooner than later, but with C N’R - all teams start the season completing spring clean up and gutter cleaning work before we start any projects. Depending on when we do finish the spring work, usually our first week for projects starts as early as late April or sometime early May. Projects basically coincide with our “weekly mowing” service once we are able to break up into teams once the spring clean up and gutter cleaning work has been completed.

Prior to our start of the season with spring clean ups and gutter cleaning? Yes, if weather cooperates, we can get out to do some early springtime projects such as “cut-backs” of shrubs prior to them starting to coming out of dormancy. Or early mulch to gardens that have a high population of perennials prior to these perennials coming up. These are some things we can possibly get done as long as we do not have snow cover, and as long as soil is dry enough to conduct the work. Also, road restrictions do play a role of when they are lifted to able loads of product to be delivered.

Again, at the time of this update, it is still early to plan anything. We are just getting things ready to go, and will be completing estimates. If you are looking to get an estimate on any type of project, please go to FREE ESTIMATES to submit your request and we will follow up as soon as we can.

Any specific questions or if you want to quickly approve something for this season for “as early as possible”, please EMAIL CRAIG.
