Southern Care Lawn & Landscape

What Southern Care Lawn & Landscape does

Southern Care Lawn & Landscape is a private, regionally focused commercial landscaping contractor headquartered in Buford, Georgia, founded in 1996. The company provides installation, recurring maintenance, turf and weed treatments, ground cover, irrigation, and tree services to commercial property customers across Georgia and South Carolina, with a stated customer base of over 250 commercial buildings. Its service offering is anchored on recurring maintenance contracts supplemented by one-time project work, creating a mix of predictable recurring revenue and lumpy installation revenue typical of the commercial landscaping vertical.

Operations are led by a Director of Operations holding a BS in Horticulture, Plant & Soil Science with over 40 years of industry experience. The company maintains regulatory credentials required for its service lines, including Georgia Pesticide Contractors certification and GSWCC certification, and holds a Six Sigma Operations certification that is atypical for a sub-50 employee service contractor. Equipment is owned rather than rented, supporting cost control and scheduling flexibility for both maintenance routes and installation projects.

The business model is straightforward commercial services revenue: per-contract maintenance fees from property managers and one-time installation/project invoices. There is no indication of technology platforms, software products, or capital raises; the company operates as a closely held, bootstrapped regional contractor with 11-50 employees and a localized brand presence evidenced by five-star Google reviews and active Facebook engagement.
