Why Blades Of Green Is Better
Your lawn is personal to you. So should your lawn care.

That’s right – a lawn care program built just for your lawn – and your budget.
- Core
- Pro
- Signature
Regardless of the level of lawn care you choose, you’ll get expert care from trained professionals who care about your lawn as if it were their own. Plus, no matter which lawn care program you select, you’ll benefit from all the ways that make us different from other lawn care companies:
We are locally operated
Our founder, Mark Leahy, started the company back in 1989 with just him and his brother, Brad. More than 30 years later, we have a team of more than 150 people partnering with people and companies in Maryland and Northern Virginia.
We have our own lawn lab
That’s right, we design and produce many of our products here onsite. This allows us to adapt to our area's and your soil's ever-changing conditions. Plus, we have test plots where we can benchmark results and innovate. There’s no moss growing on our feet (or test plots). We’re always looking for ways to improve and get better results for our clients.
We’re Soil Scientists
Our agronomists have more than 25,000 soil tests and 30+ years of experience under their belt, WE ARE THE SOIL EXPERTS and know what your lawn needs. Not only do we understand the local soil and climate, but we also custom manufacture materials specifically for our service area and YOUR lawn. No big box, cookie-cutter approach here! It’s all about you (well, technically, your lawn).
See Our Report CardWe’re Mixologists
No, you won’t find us at the bar whipping up your favorite drink, but you will find us using our state-of-the-art mixing system to customize treatments daily. You won’t find that in aisle five at the hardware store, nor offered by our ‘competitors.’
We Leave No Stone Unturned
Okay, well, not EVERY stone - but you get the idea. Getting the best lawn care and pest control means having peace of mind knowing that one of our trained experts is taking their time to examine your property with every visit. This means if we see something that causes concern, you’ll be the first to know. Plus, we’ll even recommend an action plan!
We Hire and Train the Best
All of our team members go through a vigorous vetting process. Plus, each of our technicians receives more than 70 hours of continuous training every year.
We’re Good Stewards of the Environment
We are proud our applications are organic-based and phosphorus-free!
We communicate
No one likes surprise visits, so we will let you know when we plan to be onsite a few days in advance. And, you’ll get a post-visit message letting you know exactly what we did while we were onsite. Want a text? You got it. Prefer emails? We’re in your inbox? Like hearing your phone ring? Hello, we’re there. Whatever you need, we’ve got you covered.
We Are A Client, Too
Most of our team are not only employees but clients too! They have lawn care programs set up for their own lawns, so we know how the process works and can speak from experience. Some send clients pictures of how their lawns have progressed. We live and breathe this stuff!
We are Award-Winning
Hey, we don’t like to brag… But we’ve received more than 1,000 reviews and countless accolades from multiple different publications.
Your Satisfaction is our #1 Priority
Should you have any problems while on our lawn care or pest control program, we will continue to retreat and address your concerns.
Entomologists on staff
Many of our team members are experts in the study of insects and their relationship to humans, our environment, and other organisms. This helps us identify the correct products and procedures to use, to ensure a healthy environment for everyone!
Clients Love Us - No, Seriously… they do! But don’t take our word for it.
James Wright just came to our house and did a thorough job spraying using jell and setting out traps to kill German cockroaches. Thanks again. - Stephen D.
A long time customer of Blades of Green Lawn care, Great company very organized and well run. In addition to the great lawn service I have enjoyed over the years, I was contacted by the B.O.G. automated service alerting me of the arrival of the ZIKA mosquitos. I followed their advice and had both of my properties treated! Since the treatment I no longer have to fear getting a little head, or whatever this ZIKA thing causes. Great Job Guys!!- Joe Amato
Jason was a knowledgeable technician and went above and beyond to explain what was happening in our lawn and what we could expect from todays treatment. I had additional questions on plant beds and specific areas of my lawn and he provided me appropriate info. I felt he was extremely knowledgeable and professional and was able to make some additions to our lawn care plan.- Mary Beth Fitzgerald
