Since opening its doors in 1987 as Sunshine Grounds Care, the company built its reputation on its guiding principles: excellent workmanship, customer satisfaction, and genuine care. In 2010, with the help of Neighborly (one of the largest home services companies in the world), the lawn care company was transformed into The Grounds Guys.
Since then, The Grounds Guys has opened more than 180 franchise locations throughout the United States and Canada.

C.A.R.E.
The Grounds Guys are dedicated to providing quality services and ensuring 100 percent customer satisfaction. The company abides by a simple acronym, C.A.R.E.:
- Customer First
- Attitude
- Respect
- Enjoy Life
The Grounds Guys claim that these values remain consistent across all of its nationwide locations and help to set its landscaping and lawn care service apart from the competition.
However, that’s not all that sets The Ground Guys apart; the company makes several other promises to customers including that its employees will always arrive in a recognizable Grounds Guys vehicle and always provide friendly customer service, fast response times, high-quality technology, and more.
Upfront Pricing
Many homeowners are hesitant to hire a lawn care company because many companies withhold the final price until the very end. The Grounds Guys believe in not surprising its customers with hidden fees and unexpected costs. Instead, the company promises to provide upfront pricing and fully inform its customers about any additional services.
Work with Licensed Experts
The Grounds Guys know that a beautiful lawn won’t just happen by itself — sometimes it requires the care of a licensed professional to ensure it thrives year-round. The Grounds Guys are members of the N.A.L.P. (The National Association of Landscape Professionals) and the S.I.M.A (The Snow & Ice Management Association). Additionally, The Grounds Guys are all licensed, certified, and thoroughly trained in everything lawn care.
A Neighborly Company
According to the company website, being a part of Neighborly gives The Grounds Guys unique access to resources, marketing strategies, and proven systems that other business owners won’t find anywhere else.
The Bad
- Limited Service Locations
Limited Service Locations
Although The Grounds Guys has over 180 franchises throughout the United States and Canada, it appears that the lawn care company’s services are not available in every U.S. state. Additionally, potential customers will need to call the company to find out if their hometown is a part of The Grounds Guys service area.
The Bottom Line
The Grounds Guys provides commercial and residential lawn care and landscaping services throughout the nation. The company is dedicated to providing outstanding customer service and never tries to surprise customers with hidden fees. Additionally, The Ground Guys is a part of the Neighborly community — a home services platform that connects consumers with local experts.
