In 1979, as a young man, Wayne asked his father - J.J. Volz Sr. - for a bicycle. So his Dad bought him a 22” push mower, electric weed-eater, and push broom so that Wayne could earn the money he needed to buy myself the bike.


In June of 1987, Wayne made this business his full time job. Since then it has been a small, family owned business located in Buechel in Louisville, KY that grew from 9 accounts to being recognized as a Top 10 Small Business in the nation by Landscape Management Magazine, Best of Kentuckiana, and voted Neighborhood Favorite by Nextdoor users. We are also an accredited business with the Better Business Bureau with an A+ rating.

Pooling water in your yard might seem like a small nuisance, but it can signal a much bigger problem. In many cases, standing water around your home is caused by old, cracked, or blocked drain pipes. When your downspouts can’t properly move water away from your house, it can damage your lawn, stress your foundation, and in severe cases, even cause water to leak inside your home. We had a customer in the Fern Creek, KY area who reached out with this exact issue. As you can see in the photos their drain pipe was blocked, very worn, and frankly needed replaced.

We've been seeing an increase in brown spots that look dead in lawns around the Louisville area. It could be several different things - but one of those is a grub worm infestation.
