Whatever regional term you might use—landscape maintenance, grounds management, tree and grounds care—there is no debating the importance of a well-orchestrated plan to maintain the outdoor amenities that make your property inviting.
No matter what maintenance services you need, the Bland team is here to help. We apply the principles of good horticulture and agronomy to every project, whether it’s for a single-family home or across the vast expanse of an entire community, office park, institutional campus, or municipality. We can devise a thoughtful, informed plan, customized to the needs of the landscape no matter how large or small.

Turfgrass Management
Well-managed turf is an investment in the appearance and functionality of your property. Our local teams of trained professionals make decisions based on best-in-class turfgrass management practices, including the guidance provided by North Carolina State University and Clemson University. We equip team members with the correct tools for the job, and we only use inputs that we know to be effective from our decades of research and development.
Whether you have an HOA with centipede grass in the coastal plains, or a Class A Office campus with fescue in the Piedmont and foothills, we have experts ready to make it look the best it possibly can within the constraints afforded by site conditions.
Mulch & Pinestraw
Details, details, details: it’s all about the details! Some of the most important details on a well maintained property are the kinds of things the average person may not even stop to notice—until they get overlooked. Mulch and pine needles are two great examples of such details, and both provide respective benefits to the landscape in addition to the clean aesthetic they provide when they are refreshed regularly.
We encourage clients to invest in regular mulch and pine needle applications not only to provide healthy root systems, but to aid in weed suppression, erosion prevention, splash prevention, reduced heat-island effect, maintaining walkable pathways, and a general well-maintained appearance.
Our landscape experts are happy to work with you to recommend what is best for the property we are helping you manage. Whether you need 1,000 bales, or 10,000 cubic yards, we’ve got you (and your plant beds) covered! Contact us today.
Outdoor Lighting
We design, install, manage, and repair low-voltage landscape lighting systems. From older, existing systems to newer, state-of-the-art systems, we install both traditional incandescent and LED fixtures.
We encourage customers to use LED systems—whose warmth and quality of light has greatly improved in recent years—for reliability, energy efficiency, lifecycle longevity, and cost-savings. When it comes to the lifecycle cost of a lighting system, LEDs are by far the smartest investment.
These benefits translate into a commercial system’s practical uses, including illuminating dimly lit areas and walking paths, increasing security in parking lots, eliminating trip hazards, or accenting a prominent feature of a building or landscape.
