The Grounds Guys of SW Omaha is set to make 2015 a year of growth, and with that, a year full of many changes as well. Local franchise owner Brandy Prettyman and her team of grounds maintenance professionals have big plans in the works, and couldn’t be more excited about them! In focusing on the growth of the franchise, and specifically with the recent growth of its client base to include government contracts such as Offutt Air Force Base, The Grounds Guys of SW Omaha has revamped its structure to incorporate two separate divisions: Government Services and Residential/Commercial. This will allow them to stay ahead of the curve in offering their clients industry expertise and services tailored specifically to the requirements of each unique job.
Growing With Their Clients — As an industry leader, The Grounds Guys of SW Omaha take their responsibilities in the area of consumer education very seriously. They make it a priority to give their clients all of the information needed to make educated decisions on the care and upkeep of the property. This team mentality empowers clients to take on what they know they can handle and leave the rest to The Grounds Guys, who are always on a quest for knowledge in their industry. Continuity is also important, no matter the size or scope of the project. The Grounds Guys form a partnership with each client that starts with the initial walk-through and getting acquainted with the project leaders who will be working on the property. The client stays involved in formulating a plan of action, and then regularly receives updates as well as helpful suggestions. The growth of the company, and separation into two divisions, has already offered The Grounds Guys a fresh perspective in their continued pursuit of serving the best interests of their clients.
Growing Their Offerings With Specialty Services – With the split into two divisions, the Residential/Commercial division is able to focus clearly on how its wide variety of offerings, including many specialty services that are necessary due to the characteristics of our geographic region, can best serve the needs of local property owners. There are many aspects that go into maintaining the grounds of your business or home year-round, and with that, many things that are commonly neglected which affect the overall health and appearance of your property. A few simple, yet key, examples of this are power raking and aeration.
Power Raking: When many people cut their grass they don’t bag it up. This is great for restoring the nutrients back into the soil, but it also leads to compaction over time and this is very common in our area. This accumulation is called a thatch buildup, and it creates a barrier that affects water and nutrient absorption because they can’t penetrate through that layer. Many times during consultations, clients are having an issue with their grass dying off even though they are regularly watering and fertilizing and this is generally the solution.
Aeration: Something as simple as putting holes in your lawn regularly does have a dramatic effect in the short and long run. Similar to our skin’s pore system, your lawn needs to breathe to stay healthy. Aerating at recommended intervals provides more points of entry for nutrients and fertilizer to sink all the way down into the root system where it needs to be.
In working with The Grounds Guys of SW Omaha, you’ll benefit from the vast expertise of the local team supported by the collective expertise of the other Grounds Guys teams across the nation. If there is a question that they can’t answer or a problem that they can’t solve on their own, a consultation with a professional who has seen it before is only a phone call away. Above all, The Grounds Guys offers much more than just lawn mowing. They are an all-inclusive grounds maintenance resource that will tailor an effective program that is specific to your property’s needs. In growing with The Grounds Guys of SW Omaha, you’ll unlock the potential of what is truly possible for your property.
