Garden Guys Landscaping is a locally owned company based along the Maine coast and led by Jack Vose, a Civil and Environmental Engineering graduate from the University of Maine. We work throughout Cape Elizabeth, South Portland, Portland, and Scarborough, providing lawn care, seasonal cleanups, planting, and landscape design. Our team also specializes in hardscape installation, including patios and walkways, and offers dependable snow services during the winter months. With a focus on sustainability, we use regionally suited plants and thoughtful design to create outdoor spaces that look great and support the local environment. Whether maintaining a small garden or transforming a full property, our team is committed to quality work and strong communication. Let us help bring your landscape to life with care, creativity, and respect for the place we call home.

"Last summer I had the pleasure of working with Garden Guys for a landscape installation project at my home. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, professional, and exceeded all my expectations. The team was incredibly attentive to my ideas and needs. One of the things that stood out to me were their general attitudes. They seemed to have a great time doing the work at hand were very friendly to me and my wife. That is not always the case with landscape companies. They installed a variety of plants, shrubs, and trees, all of which are growing in beautifully. We were able to incorporate blooming all season which has been a very nice thing to have. We have a hardscaping project scheduled for next summer and we are very excited. We are getting a new patio on the backside of our house. I highly recommend Garden Guys to anyone looking for top-notch landscaping services."

We are a family owned business in operation since 2000. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail and outstanding customer service. Our company was founded on the ability to provide all aspects of property maintenance through the use of one company rather than multiple contractors. Award winning.

"Ok.....the lawn was mowed when it was wet and instead of a clean cut, the grass was all matted. The leaves were removed, but the cutting back and cleaning up of beds was messy. The crew came on a cloudy day in the afternoon and were working into the dark. I think that they were rushed and didn't pick up some of the leaves matted down in the beds on the property line. When I checked in with them, they came right over and were very responsive and polite. When asked if I would hire them again, I think that i would would a bit more guidance around the quality of the finished job."

We pride our company on reliability, integrity and quality work. When JAB Lawn Care is hired, we make it a point to provide the highest level of customer service. We work with both residential and commercial clients, and apply the same attention to detail regardless of project size or complexity. We look forward to earning your business! Thank you!

"Josh from JAB is timely and communicative. Provided us with a fair quote for the two feet tall grass we inherited at our newly purchased home. We scheduled our first cut for a Monday, and the weather was looking dicey - Josh still showed up and squeezed us in before the rain. Sure enough, 15 minutes later it rained for the rest of the day. We will be hiring the JAB crew for regular yard maintenance throughout the summer."

"Jon took my scraggly, unkempt, overgrown mess of a lawn and turned it into a little slice of landscaped paradise. He has an excellent ability to envision all the ways to improve & beautify your home from the outside in, and then explain it in a way that you can't help seeing it yourself. (I now have dreams of a tiered garden and a fire pit fit for Middle Earth.) Jon's talents don't end there, he's also an adept painter, carpenter and (with the strength and flexibility of youth) can move just about anything deemed too heavy and/or bulky for any one person. He is polite, professional and creative. His landscaping abilities border on magical. (I have him in my phone as Jon the Lawn Wizard, because it's true). I highly recommend him for any of your landscaping, painting and carpentry needs!"

Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

For small trees, tree removal should take just a couple of hours to complete. Assume that a mid-sized tree will take between four and eight hours, depending on the extent of the equipment required and the health of the tree. Remember to add up to two hours for stump removal. Larger trees could take as long as one or two working days, about eight hours each.

A small, healthy tree growing close to your home isn’t usually a problem. However, it’s worth speaking to an arborist if you have a tree within 15 to 20 feet of your home that isn’t in such good health or is encroaching on your home’s perimeter. The last thing you want is branches burrowing their way under tiles, causing a roof leak.

What tools you’ll need to remove a tree stump will depend on the method you choose. Generally, a shovel, mattock or pickax, chainsaw, garden shears, and a wheelbarrow will help, but do your research once you choose your DIY strategy. You should also be sure to add safety supplies like goggles, ear protection, gloves, and more to your list, no matter which method you choose.

The amount of time it takes for a tree trunk to rot depends on several factors, including the tree’s size, species, and environmental conditions. It can take anywhere from a few years to several decades for a tree’s trunk to rot. A tree stump, on the other hand, can take up to 10 years to disappear after it’s decayed naturally.

It will take you anywhere from 15 minutes to two hours per tree stump to grind and remove the stump from the ground. The larger the size, the longer it will take to remove the stump. Also, keep in mind that rocky soil may require local excavation services to loosen up large boulders before you can begin to remove the tree stump.
