After several years of experience working for other local landscape service providers, Luciano Lopez, founder of this company, felt the need of a change in his life in order to care and provide for his young growing family, as well as to express the design and technical skills he felt he had.
To make ends meet, Lopez rolled the dice in 1985 and decided to begin venturing on his own and practically knocked door to door in search of customers. At first, Lopez serviced his client’s properties on his own and hired temporary help from time to time; however, as he began acquiring bigger maintenance projects and had to work 7 days a week to successfully fulfill all his client’s requests, there were times he and his wife loaded the kids in the old truck and headed to his maintenance sites to 'spend time with the family' while they all worked as a team to finish up the properties.
As he did all the main labor, the rest of the family assisted in picking-up trash, pulling weeds and all those things that the kids thought were fun at that time . These activities helped the family grow stronger together, appreciate each other and the significance of hard work.
As more clients became interested in our services, the family business took off and we began adding crews for landscape maintenance and landscape installation. Although the children grew older and began helping in the daily business operations, Lopez carried the business as a sole-proprietor until 2004 when he decided to restructure as a corporation. Then In January 2007, Lopez decided it was time to begin enjoying a little of what he built and therefore, sold the business to his oldest ‘kids’; Henry and Jacky Lopez, both of whom had been active managers and directors of the company for many years before taking ownership of the business.
Nowadays, Luciano makes himself available for business consulting questions that may arise and also assists with as-needed project estimating. Recently, one of the partners; Jacky Lopez stepped down as an owner to dedicate herself to her own family. However, she also makes herself available as a consultant to assist with Business Development and Project Management, don't be surprised to see her around your project site from time to time. The company is now owned and maged by the founding owner's son; Henry Lopez.
Although the company is a small business concern, we provide the manpower, quality and experience of the bigger companies but with the personal touch; we modernize landscaping, the old fashion way.
Thank you to those who have contributed to our success.
