Preparing for our lawn mowing service is simple. Just ensure that your yard is free of large debris, toys, or obstacles so our crew can perform efficient and thorough landscape maintenance.

Our goal is to keep your property looking its best with minimal disruption to your routine.

How does Gearhart choose plants and trees for their projects?

At Gearhart, we carefully select plants and trees based on your property's layout, sunlight exposure, soil conditions, and aesthetic goals. As part of our Plant and Tree Installation services, we prioritize using native Pennsylvania species that are well-adapted to the local climate—ensuring healthier growth, lower maintenance, and improved sustainability. By choosing regional plants, we reduce the need for excess watering or chemical treatments, supporting both your landscape's longevity and the local ecosystem. Whether it’s a residential design or part of a larger commercial landscape maintenance plan, we build landscapes that are both beautiful and environmentally responsible.
