Ongoing / Property care

Property care.

Ongoing landscape care and contracted snow removal across Northern Utah — so the property looks in year five the way it did the week we finished it.

A landscape is not a purchase, it is a living thing that either gets better or gets away from you. Property care is the program that keeps turf, planting, irrigation, hardscape and lighting the way they were designed and built—handled by the people who know what is under the ground.

A finished Northern Utah landscape cared for year-round by R2 Landscape R2 LandscapeBuilt With Purpose.
Northern Utah landscape built and cared for by R2 Landscape

We built it. We’d like to keep it.

We spend months designing and building a property with you. Then, on most jobs, we hand over the keys and drive away—and someone who has never seen the plans takes over. They do not know where the drip line runs, why that tree was placed where it was, or what the beds were meant to look like once they filled in. A few seasons later the landscape is still there, but the design is gone.

Property care exists so that does not happen. The people who know what is under the ground, because they put it there, keep the property the way it was built. And when you want to add to it, you are calling the company that already has the plan on file.

We would rather stay than start over. That is the whole idea.

Cared for.
Not just cut.

01

Mowing, Edging & Lawn Care

Weekly mowing at the right height for the season, crisp edging along every walk, drive and bed line, string trimming and blow-down so the property is left clean. Fertilization, aeration, overseeding and broadleaf weed control run on a program across the year—so the turf holds up through a Utah August instead of going backwards.

02

Planting Health & Pruning

Trees, shrubs, ornamental grasses and perennials pruned on the right schedule for the species—shaped to the design intent rather than sheared flat. Fertility, soil and plant health watched across the season, and losses replaced before a bed looks gap-toothed.

03

Irrigation Management

Spring startup, mid-season adjustment as the weather turns, head and zone repairs, controller programming, and fall winterization. Irrigation is the most common cause of plant loss in Utah, so it is managed all season—not just switched on in April and off in October.

04

Beds, Mulch & Weed Control

Bed edges held to their original lines, mulch and rock refreshed to depth, and weed pressure handled before it takes a bed over. The difference between a landscape that reads as designed and one that reads as overgrown is almost always the bed lines.

05

Hardscape, Lighting & Features

Pavers, walls, steps and patios checked for settling and joint sand loss; landscape lighting aimed, cleaned and re-lamped; water features and drainage kept clear. Small corrections now instead of a rebuild in five years.

06

Seasonal Transitions

Spring startup, fall cleanup, leaf and debris removal, cutbacks and winter preparation—timed to the Northern Utah season rather than to a calendar written somewhere else.

07

Enhancements & Additions

The landscape keeps growing with the family. Added planting, lighting extensions, a fire feature, a new bed or a section of patio—designed and built by the same company, so additions match what is already there.

A walk, a plan,
a rhythm.

01

Walk

We walk the property with you—planting, irrigation, hardscape, lighting and drainage—and note what is thriving, what is struggling and what needs correcting before it becomes expensive.

02

Program

You get a written annual program: what is covered, how often we come, what happens each season, and the price. No open-ended hourly work and no surprise line items.

03

Care

The same crew returns on the same rhythm through the season. Visits are documented, and anything we find that falls outside the program is brought to you before it is done, not after.

Written down.
Before winter.

01

Site Plan & Snow Staging

Before the season we map the property: plow routes, stacking areas, no-push zones, drainage and melt paths, hydrants, curbs and islands staked so nothing gets clipped in the dark.

02

Lot, Street & Driveway Plowing

Parking areas, drive aisles, HOA streets, private lanes and residential driveways cleared to the trigger depth written into your agreement—typically two inches, measured at the property, not at the airport.

03

Walks, Entries & ADA Access

Sidewalks, building entries, front walks, porches, ADA ramps and stalls cleared by hand and blower. The parts of a property people actually walk on are where the liability lives.

04

Ice Management

Salt and ice-melt applied to lots, drives, walks and entries—including refreeze events after a thaw, which cause more slip claims than the storms do.

05

Snow Relocation & Haul-Off

When stacking areas fill, piles get pushed back or hauled off site with the same equipment we run on excavation jobs—so you don’t lose a row of stalls, or half a driveway, to a snowbank in February.

Northern Utah landscape built and maintained by R2 Landscape

We built the property. We know what’s under the snow.

R2 is a landscape construction company first. We own the equipment, and on many of these properties we installed the curbs, islands, irrigation heads and pavers now buried under six inches of snow—so they survive the winter instead of turning into spring repair work. A plow truck that has never seen the property in summer doesn’t know what it’s scraping.

That is also why our winter list is deliberately short. We take on the number of properties our routes and equipment can genuinely service in a back-to-back storm week, and then we stop. A snow contract you can’t rely on is worse than no contract at all.

Same sequence,
every event.

01

Watch

Forecasts are tracked ahead of each system. Crews, routes and material are staged before accumulation starts—not called together after it does.

02

Service

Crews run their assigned route at trigger depth and return through it as accumulation continues, working lots, streets, drives, walks and entries per the agreement.

03

Document

Every visit is logged—time, scope, material. You get the record, and billing matches what actually happened on the property.

Landscapes worth keeping.

Property care is built for finished landscapes that were designed as a whole—estate homes, custom properties, commercial sites and HOA common areas across Northern Utah. Properties R2 designed and built are the most natural fit, because we already know every zone, line and joint. But we also take on established landscapes we did not install; those simply start with a walk-through so we can see the condition of what is there before committing to a program. Mowing, edging and turf care are part of every program. What we don’t take on is mow-only work on its own—if the lawn is all you need cut, that is a different business, and there are good companies doing it.

Before you
reach out.

Do you only care for landscapes R2 built?

No. Properties we built are the most natural fit because we already know what is in the ground, but we take on established landscapes we did not install. Those start with a walk-through so we can see the condition of the planting, irrigation and hardscape before we commit to a program.

Does property care include mowing and edging?

Yes. Weekly mowing, edging, trimming and blow-down are part of the program, along with fertilization, aeration and turf weed control. What we don’t take on is mow-only work as a standalone service — property care covers the whole property, turf included. It is a program, not a lawn route.

How is property care scheduled?

On an annual program with a set visit rhythm, built around the Northern Utah season — spring startup, the growing season, fall cleanup and winterization. The schedule is written into the agreement so you know who is coming and when.

Does property care cover irrigation startup and winterization?

Yes. Spring startup, mid-season adjustment and fall winterization are part of the annual program. Irrigation is the single most common cause of plant loss in Utah, so it is managed rather than just switched on and off.

Can property care be combined with snow removal?

Yes, and on most properties it should be. The same crews that know where the irrigation heads, curbs and pavers are in July are the ones you want plowing over them in January. Snow is contracted separately in the fall — see snow removal.

What areas do you cover?

Northern Utah — Farmington, Kaysville, Layton, Ogden, North Ogden, Bountiful, North Salt Lake, Morgan, Mountain Green, Huntsville and Eden.

Do you take one-time or on-call snow removal calls?

No. R2 services contracted properties under a seasonal agreement. Storm response is a promise, and we only make it to properties we have committed routes and equipment to before the season starts.

Do you service residential properties?

Yes. Homes, estates and private drives are serviced on the same seasonal-agreement basis as commercial properties. Larger drives, steep approaches and homes on an established route are the best fit.

What triggers a service visit?

A trigger depth written into your agreement — commonly two inches, measured at the property. Ice events and drifting are handled separately under the ice management scope.

When do snow agreements need to be signed?

Routes are built and equipment committed before the first storm, so agreements are signed in the fall. Once a route is full it is closed for the season.
