We handle the full year in Sherwood: mowing through the season, mulch and bed work in spring, cleanups in fall, and plowing all winter.
Getting here: Northeast of Hicksville, an easy run for our crews.
Wind exposure decides what survives here
Sherwood sits in open country with very little to break the wind. That matters more than most homeowners expect. Newly planted trees need proper staking their first season or they rock in the ground and never root out. Evergreens on the west and north sides of a property take winter desiccation — the needles brown out because the plant loses water it cannot replace from frozen soil. We site plantings with exposure in mind and, on exposed lots, we recommend a windbreak line before we recommend ornamentals.
Drainage on ground with almost no fall
There is very little natural slope in this part of the county. That means surface water does not leave on its own — it sits until it evaporates or finds tile. On Sherwood properties we work with a laser level from the start, because eyeballing grade on ground this flat is how systems get built running the wrong direction. Frequently the answer is a shallow swale carrying water to a road ditch, combined with downspouts piped well away from the house.
Snow and drifting on open roads
Rural Defiance County roads drift. A driveway can be perfectly clear at 6 a.m. and closed by 9 a.m. with no new snow falling, because wind is moving what already fell across open fields. Our snow agreements here account for that with return passes rather than a single push, and we stake drive edges in the fall so crews can clear accurately when the drift line hides the pavement entirely.
What Sherwood properties call us for
These are the services this ground actually needs, ordered by what the soil and terrain in Defiance County demand rather than by what is easiest to sell.
- Snow Removal & Ice ManagementPlowing, shoveling and salting on a trigger you set — residential drives and commercial lots, all winter.
- Lawn Mowing & Property MaintenanceWeekly mowing, trimming and edging on a schedule you can set your watch by — residential and commercial.
- Mulching & Landscape Bed MaintenanceCrisp cut edges, correct mulch depth, and beds that stay clean instead of needing a rescue every July.
- Drainage Solutions & Yard GradingFrench drains, swales and regrading that move water away from your foundation before it costs you a basement.
- Spring & Fall CleanupsThe two visits a year that decide how the rest of the season goes — debris out, beds reset, leaves gone.
- Tree & Shrub TrimmingPruned at the right time of year, to the right cut — so plants stay in scale instead of getting sheared into boxes.

Why Sherwood property owners choose us
This is our home ground
Sherwood sits inside the counties we work every week from Hicksville. That shows up most in winter, when distance decides whose driveway gets cleared first.
We fix the water before anything else
Every dollar spent on plants or hardscape sitting on ground that stays wet gets spent twice. On Defiance County soil we diagnose drainage first — and often the honest answer is two downspouts rather than a system.
46 Google reviews, licensed and insured
Verbatim reviews from neighbours across the region, full coverage on every crew and machine, and financing available so a full plan can be built in one season.
One contractor for all four seasons
Landscaping April through November and snow and ice through the winter, from the same crews. The people who stake a drive in November are the people who mowed it in July.
