How the company grew
Nearly 30 Years of Experience Didn’t Happen Overnight
Complete Lawn Service was founded by Jody Hardin in 1997.
As the company grew, Jody wanted a deeper understanding of the work and what it takes to make a landscape perform well over time. He went back to school at night and earned his degree in horticulture, then continued building his experience across landscaping, irrigation, drainage, hardscaping, and outdoor lighting.
That knowledge allowed Complete Lawn Service to take on more involved projects and eventually grow into the full-service landscaping company it is today.
The experience matters because outdoor projects rarely involve just one thing. A patio may require the right grading and drainage. New landscaping may need irrigation. Outdoor lighting should be considered before paths, steps, walls, and planting areas are finished.
Doing the job right means understanding how all of those pieces work together.
One Company. Your Entire Outdoor Space.
Some useful projects begin with the part of a property a homeowner barely uses: a steep backyard that is difficult to mow, an area where water collects, or open ground with more potential than purpose.
When several services meet in one area, experience across planting, grade, drainage, hardscaping, irrigation, and lighting helps the team explain how the pieces affect one another.
- Grade and drainage around the area being improved
- Patios, walkways, retaining walls, and usable access
- Planting needs, irrigation coverage, and future upkeep
- Low-voltage lighting around finished outdoor features
The result can be more of the property that the homeowner can comfortably use.
WHAT RELIABILITY LOOKS LIKE
Dependable Work Starts With the Basics
We believe the basics matter. Return the call. Provide the estimate. Show up when you say you will. Communicate with the homeowner. Pay attention to the details. And do the work the way it should be done.
That same standard carries into the work itself. Grading, drainage, planting, irrigation coverage, hardscape details, and lighting placement can all affect how a property looks, functions, and holds up over time.
After nearly 30 years in this business, we’ve learned that consistency matters. Do the little things right, keep showing up, and give customers the quality of work they expect from you.
Familiar Crews. Practical Experience.
Consistency matters just as much on the hundredth visit as it does on the first.
Several members of our team have been with Complete Lawn Service for eight to ten years. They've been trained to our standards, and that continuity means our customers aren't constantly wondering who is going to show up or what kind of work they'll receive.
Especially for our full-service maintenance customers, familiarity makes a difference. Our crews learn the property. They know how it should look. And they know the standard they're expected to maintain.
You shouldn't have to retrain your landscaping company every time a truck pulls into the driveway.
What We Stand For
Attention to Detail
The details matter. From drainage and grading to clean edges, planting, irrigation coverage, and lighting placement, we pay attention to the things that affect how the finished work looks and performs.
Consistency
Customers should know what to expect from us. We train our crews to the same standards and work to deliver that standard from one visit or project to the next.
Reliability
Do what you say you're going to do. Return the call, provide the estimate, communicate, show up, and follow through. It sounds simple because it should be.
Long-Term Quality
We aren't trying to be the cheapest option. We focus on doing the work properly and providing a result that looks good, functions the way it should, and holds up over time.
