RGS Landscape and Arbor Care

What RGS Landscape and Arbor Care does

RGS Landscape and Arbor Care is a privately held commercial landscaping company headquartered at 1156 North Grove Street, Anaheim, California, founded in 1985. It provides four integrated service lines — Landscape Design, Landscape Construction, Landscape Maintenance, and Arbor & Plant Health Care — to commercial property owners, homeowner associations, multi-family residential complexes, and property management companies throughout Southern California. The firm employs a California State Licensed Landscape Architect (Andrew A. Kunde, Lic. #4193) and ISA-certified arborists, including Qualified Tree Risk Assessors, which enables integrated design-to-execution delivery and risk-mitigation services such as tree structural assessments and Sustainable Landscape Management Plans.

The company operates a direct-to-client services model with revenue generated through three streams: recurring maintenance contracts (subscription-style agreements for pruning, fertilizing, mowing, spraying, and related services), professional services for arbor care and tree risk assessment, and one-time project-based revenue from landscape design, construction, and enhancement work. Field crews deliver services on contractual schedules at client properties, supported by a single Anaheim headquarters. The firm differentiates itself on the integration of in-house landscape architecture with maintenance and arbor operations, eliminating the traditional consultant-contractor handoff, and on its 40-year regional track record and bilingual English/Spanish service capability.

RGS is family-operated with no institutional investors, no disclosed funding rounds, and no parent company. The firm maintains a professional website (rgsls.com) and an active jobs page indicating continued hiring across field and supervisory roles, and participates in industry events such as the 2025 Western National Property Management Leadership Conference. Headcount is in the 101-250 range. There are no public financial disclosures; revenue, ownership structure, and customer concentration are not publicly broken out.
