Commercial Services

J&H delivers dependable, high‑quality commercial property care built for businesses that can’t afford uncertainty. From retail centers and offices to industrial sites and multi‑property portfolios, we provide consistent service, clear communication, and reliable scheduling that keeps your property looking sharp and operating safely all year long.

Fort Dodge businesses trust us because we show up, we communicate, and we perform — every single time.

Customized 12‑Month Service Plans

Every commercial property has unique demands, so we build customized 12‑month service plans instead of one-size-fits-all pricing. Your entire grounds maintenance and snow/ice management program is combined into one predictable monthly rate, giving your business:

•  Stable, year‑round budgeting

•  No seasonal spikes or surprise invoices

•  A single provider responsible for your property in every season

•  A professional partner who understands commercial expectations

•  A relationship built on reliability, transparency, and trust

By planning our workload for the full year, we reduce administrative overhead and route inefficiencies — and we pass that value directly back to you.

Early Bird & Prepaid Discounts

We reward businesses that plan ahead. Commercial clients who renew early or prepay for their annual plan receive additional savings on their 12‑month service package.

Year‑Round Commercial Grounds Maintenance

Property Preparation & Seasonal Transitions

We prepare your property for each season with debris removal, pruning, bed maintenance, and cleanup services that keep your site looking professional and safe.

Ongoing Grounds Maintenance

•  Routine mowing, trimming, and blowing

•  Edging for clean, professional lines

•  Trash and debris removal

•  Bed maintenance and weed control

•  Turf health monitoring and proactive recommendations

Commercial Turf Care Program

A structured, multi‑step program designed to strengthen turf, control weeds, and maintain a clean, professional appearance throughout the year.

Ornamental Bed & Hard Surface Weed Control

•  Weed control in landscape beds, curbs, sidewalks, and hard surfaces

•  Ongoing trash and debris removal

Fall Cleanup & Seasonal Leaf Management

We transition from mowing to cleanup as needed, providing early‑season touch‑ups and a final full cleanup once surrounding trees have dropped. All leaves and debris are removed and disposed of to maintain a clean, safe, and professional environment.

Integrated Snow & Ice Management

Snow and ice management is built directly into your 12‑month commercial plan, giving your business full coverage without separate billing or unpredictable winter costs.

Commercial clients receive priority service during winter events. To protect your property and reduce the risk of damage, we stake all commercial snow properties before the season begins. This ensures our crews can navigate safely and accurately during low‑visibility conditions.

Our goal is to keep your property accessible, safe, and operational. We work to clear snow and ice as quickly as possible after each event so your employees, customers, and tenants can move safely throughout the property.

You can trust that when winter hits, we’re already prepared.

Commercial Add‑On Services

Soil Testing

Detailed soil analysis to identify nutrient needs and optimize turf performance across high‑visibility commercial areas.

Dethatching

Removal and disposal of dense thatch buildup that restricts water and nutrient movement. This service improves turf health, appearance, and seasonal performance.

Core Aeration

Relieves soil compaction and promotes deeper root growth, resulting in stronger, more resilient turf that withstands heavy foot traffic and weather stress.

Bare Ground Herbicide Treatments

Long‑lasting weed control for gravel lots, loading areas, fence lines, parking lots, and hard surfaces — ideal for industrial and commercial properties.

Tree, Shrub, and Hedge Pruning

Seasonal pruning to maintain plant health, visibility, and professional appearance. Includes canopy raising on low‑hanging trees.

We do not perform tree removal or high‑risk tree work.

Seasonal Color & Mulch Topdressing

Fresh mulch and seasonal plantings to enhance curb appeal and maintain a polished, professional look throughout the year.
