Every job we do is backed by our 100% customer satisfaction guarantee. Pugh's Earthworks Apartment properties are beautifully and professionally maintained! Apartment Landscaping When people are looking for an apartment home, few will stop and visit a complex where the grass is overgrown or dying, standing water is visible and there is a lack of care for shrubs and trees. Conversely if the complex has freshly cut green lawns and beautifully landscaped shrubbery, people are more likely to stop and tour their potential new home. The certified and professional landscapers at Pugh's Earthworks are experts in Apartment complex landscape design and ongoing maintenance. Our properties are well designed and well maintained. There are many elements to Apartment property landscape design and maintenance. Below are some of the major components to a beautiful complex that will attract new and keep existing residents. Safe Walkways - Apartment residents enjoy taking walks with their family. If the sidewalks and pathways are not safe to walk on then the pleasure of being outdoors does not exist. Pugh's Earthworks incorporates safe and attractive walking trails into landscape design. Green Grass - No one wants to look out of the window and see a brown dying lawn or one that is riddled with weeds. Good landscaping maintenance like that performed by Pugh's Earthworks yields a harvest of a beautiful lawn. Properly designed sprinklers that apply appropriate water to the lawn while not creating unnecessary standing water is crucial. In addition, the right amounts of fertilizer and weed prevention treatments applied at the correct times of the season will keep the lawn lush and green. Parking Lot - Residents want a well designed and safe parking lot. In addition, the curb appeal of the parking lot in terms of plants and grass that surround it can be aesthetically pleasing as well as maintained to keep visibility high for safety reasons. Also, well designed drainage will keep the parking lot from having unsightly and dangerous standing water. Lighting - People want to feel safe at night. Well designed lighting as part of the overall landscaping is [...]

The professionals at Pugh's Earthworks realize that doing a great job at landscape design and seasonal maintenance is critical to set us apart from the competition. However, we also realize that showing up on the job site in torn jeans or dirty t shirts is not acceptable. We are in the commercial landscaping business and our job sites are at numerous businesses that must present a professional image to their clients. The Pugh's Earthworks team wears appropriate landscaping attire that presents well and also proudly displays our name. Not just our employees look the part but we take pride in our trucks and our equipment. Mowers have sharpened blades, trucks are clean and trimming equipment is well maintained. An excerpt from the Landscaping Magazine also speaks to the importance of dressing for the part: Bill Smith, a branch manager at Grassmaster Plus in Massachusetts, acknowledges landscaping is a dirty job. They provide their employees six T-shirts on rotation, so they have a clean shirt to wear each day they work, while giving them the opportunity to wash the clothes on Sundays. In total, it costs them about $2,000 annually. “You open up your closet and you see your work stuff and the stuff you’re going to wear on the weekend. Why can’t we intersect the two things and be really proud of (your company)?” Joseph Stark, [...]

Every job we do is backed by our 100% customer satisfaction guarantee. January is a great month to use the services of Pugh's Earthworks to prepare for the growing season! January Landscaping January is one of the coldest months of the year and landscaping is not always top of mind. However, there is much that can be done during this cold winter time to prepare for spring and a productive growing season. Pugh's Earthworks understands this and focuses on the things that help to keep them a top performing landscaping firm. This knowledge comes from being in the industry for over 25 years and the continual learning through landscape certification programs and trade publications. Some of the important landscaping actions to take in January are below: Tool Maintenance - Sharp blades on mowing equipment is key to a more beautiful and healthy lawn. The Pugh's Earthworks landscaping technicians work on the mowers to make sure blades are sharpened or replaced if needed. In addition, time is spent making sure all landscaping tools are cleaned and lubricated. Tools include not just mowers but also, pruners, loppers, leaf blowers and weed eaters. Dirt left on tools can eventually lead to spreading soil diseases to the landscape and also cause deterioration of the tools. Pruning - Not something that is always commonly considered is pruning shrubs and trees during the winter months. However, this is actually a good time as the plants and trees are in dormancy. This action makes the plants healthier plus it can be a time saver when Spring finally arrives. Also, for those that live in parts of the country that receive heavy snowfall, brushing the snow off of the branches prior to it freezing can protect the plants from breakage or permanent disfiguration of the shrub or tree. Fertilize - January is a good time to put down food for the lawn as well as herbicide for weed and disease prevention. This is also a good time to place fertilizer around the drip line of trees. They need fuel just like the grass and proper [...]

Pre-screen and qualify your prospects You must find ways to work smarter, not harder. This starts with implementing a solid, well-structured pre-screening and qualifying program. The program should be documented and trained so several people in your organization can do the screening and pre-qualifying of the prospects that call. Building the program has a number of facets to it: Pre-screening This is the first step where you make sure that the prospect’s project aligns with the work you do. The prospect may need a large tree removed from their property. You do not do arborist work, so you can let the prospect know that you do not offer this service. At that point you can end the call or refer the prospect to a company that you know does good work. Be careful when referring work to another contractor. The work they do reflects directly back to you. Referring to the [...]

Tennessee Department of Agriculture Charter and License The license examination fee is $150, and application must be made by the 10th of the month that precedes the month of exam. License applicants must be commercially certified prior to the examination date. Applicants, with the exception of the AGE category, must qualify for the examination by one of three ways: have two years verifiable experience working under a licensee in that category, or have a four-year college degree with major studies in a related field, or hold a similar license in another state. License examinations are only offered in Nashville in the months of January, April, July, and October. The examination consists of two parts, the first in a multiple-choice written format. The second part involves specimen identification. A score of 70 percent is considered passing for each part. Failure on either part requires reexamination on both parts. Test results are made available on the same day at the testing site, and examinants with a passing score can apply for a license immediately. A pro-rated fee is required of $20 per license category per year. Licensees are held accountable for all pesticide applications and required pesticide recordkeeping. Licensees are expected to work full-time at the chartered firm, but are not required to be on-site at each application. However, at least one commercially certified person is required to be on site at each application. TAPA also requires the licensed supervision of pesticide applications inside certain commercial [...]
