Any landscape, much like any aspect of life, can fall into a state of comfortable routine. As the seasons pass, pavements crack, shrubs lose their luster, and outdated elements begin to show their age. If your outdoor sanctuary has grown stagnant and its charm has dimmed, it might be time to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. 

Luckily, the upcoming fall season presents the perfect opportunity to infuse new life into your outdoor haven. So, let's explore five inspiring ways to upgrade your landscape this fall!

Chances are, you've probably passed by quite a few of our projects without even realizing it. Next time you drive by Georgia College & State University in Milledgeville, or drive through Dublin City, take a moment to appreciate the landscape designs that might just be our handiwork!

In an era where economic status and return on investment are at the forefront of our minds, it's important to recognize the influence that landscape maintenance, construction, and landscape architecture have on these aspects.  

When it comes to landscaping, a successful team doesn’t just begin and end with maintenance crews and sales managers. Often, those behind the scenes are the ones who make the biggest waves. Our new Controller, Carter Helton is a perfect example. Not everyone has a knack for digging into data or balancing numbers, but Carter has it all in spades. 

At T. Lake, we believe that outdoor spaces are more than just a place to relax and unwind. They are an extension of our homes, where we make memories with loved ones, entertain guests, and invest in our property's value. That's why we understand the importance of finding ways to boost our home's ROI and our enjoyment of our living spaces. 

One of the easiest ways to enhance your outdoor living experience is investing in an outdoor kitchen. By embracing this valuable addition, you can not only create a seamless extension of your home but also unlock endless possibilities for entertaining, savoring meals, and forging cherished memories with your loved ones.

If you've been to our office or given us a call, you've probably already met Teresa, our new receptionist. She's the ideal person to be at the front desk - bubbly, friendly, and always willing to help out with a smile. If she doesn't have the answer, she'll make sure to find it for you!

The future of landscaping looks a lot different than it did a few decades ago. As the use of automation increases, landscaping companies are quickly turning to automated equipment to perform yard maintenance that takes client service to the next level. 

Rest assured, you don’t need to worry about your lawn being taken over by R2-D2s. Just think of them as a T. Lake team member with your personal preferences pre-programmed in. We can’t wait to show you what this technology can do!

Every office needs a manager! Lucky for us, we’ve got Beth.

Beth started in February of 2022 as our part-time office manager and brings over twenty years of office experience. She graduated with her business degree from the University of Georgia and boy, she certainly means business! Beth was temporarily employed at T. Lake in the past, so when she was able to come back Tim knew she would hit the ground running (but let her have her morning sip of coffee first 🙂). 

At T. Lake, we value ongoing education within our company and the lawn and landscape industry. Staying open-minded and receptive to new trends and opportunities are key to success. A simple yet impactful way we do this is by attending networking events, shows, and conferences. Many consist of workshops and discussion groups that are led by some of our industry's most successful people.

Whether you're ready for pumpkin spice lattes or not, your outdoor space is starting to move into fall weather. To help with that transition, we have a few services that can help you and your landscape.
