full landscape redesign.

One crew for everything outside the house, with the same eye for detail whether it’s a Tuesday mow or a backyard built from scratch. Every photo below is a real Independent job.

Weekly Mowing & MaintenanceMost requested

Weekly Mowing & Maintenance

The same crew, every week, leaving crisp lines and grass so green the neighbors ask for tips. Trimmed, edged, and blown clean before they pull off.

Spring & Fall Cleanups

Spring & Fall Cleanups

Leaves, sticks, and whatever winter left behind, cleared out so the property looks better than it has in years. Meet the team, then come home to a reset yard.

Mulch & Bed Installs

Mulch & Bed Installs

Fresh beds cut to a clean curved edge and filled with mulch, perennials, and color picked to bloom all season. The detail your block notices first.

Hedge & Tree Trimming

Hedge & Tree Trimming

Shaped by hand and by eye. Round trees, square hedges, clean lines along the fence. The cleanup afterward is part of the job, never an add-on.

“My lawn has never looked better. When we switched to Independent, the look of our home changed.”

Mark and his crew are amazing. He's honest and fair with his prices. He won't do a job just to make money, and has saved me from spending extra on services I didn't really need. I get compliments on how crisp and green my grass looks.

Before hiring them I couldn't find a good or reliable landscaper, and my yard looked like garbage. Now every year it looks better and better. Mark even taught me about proper watering. Thank you Mark for taking care of us here in Farmingdale.

Both Mark and Joe are very professional and made things easy. I had a fairly large sinkhole on my front lawn from an old tree, and they filled it when no one else would. Strongly recommend reaching out if you need any landscaping work.

They came and did my Fall Cleanup yesterday. I met the team before they started and they were all very friendly. They did an amazing job, and my property has never looked this good. I'm looking forward to next season.

I invested in landscape design for the front of my house and I cannot tell you how beautiful it is. The layout and plant selection are way above my gardening ability. Every employee is polite and conscientious. They're like family.

I've contracted with Mark for years and he never disappointed. For my backyard project he sent Joe to supervise, working alongside Jose and Manuel. Each paid attention to detail and created something that exceeded my expectations. Thank you guys.

After letting my yard get overrun with weeds, I was blown away by how beautiful they made it in a single day. I tried a few cheaper services in between and they didn't compare. They always leave my yard spotless. Highly recommend.

Clean ups, mowing, and maintenance. The owner communicates with us and is usually on site for most of the work. All the workers take pride in the grooming process. We've used this service for many years.

Mark and his team have done a great job with a crappy lawn. I started the service in July and there's been much improvement. I look forward to it looking even better next year with a full season of care. Mark is very responsive and a pleasure to work with.

My lawn has never looked better. We used another company our first season and I wasn't a fan. When we switched to Independent the look of our home changed. I always get compliments on the property from family and friends.

We've used them for years, first for weekly maintenance and then for a very large landscaping project. We tapped into Mark's expertise and design ideas and the results were absolutely beautiful. Dependable and knowledgeable.

My grass is always lush, green, and perfectly manicured, and my neighbors are constantly asking for tips. From crab grass to a rat problem, there's no issue Mark and his crew can't resolve. They've transformed my outdoor space into something I'm proud of.

Local & owner-run

Run by Mark.
Done right the first time.

Independent Lawn Service is Mark's company, and you'll usually find him on site for most of the work. He picks up the phone, listens to exactly what you want, and never makes you feel dumb for asking a question. The crew, Joe, Jose and Manuel among them, treats your property like it's their own, week after week.

Mark is a straight shooter on price. He won't run a job just to make money, and more than one customer has been talked out of a service they didn't actually need. From a crab grass problem to a sinkhole the last guy wouldn't touch, if it's outside your house, Mark and the crew have handled it.

Mark is a rare businessman. Kind, full of integrity, and just so hardworking. He always answers calls and really listens to what you want.
