Lawn & landscaping
Mowing, landscape design, planting, mulch and seasonal cleanups. The same crew sees your property season after season, so nothing gets relearned on your dime.
Residential landscaping
Serving Akron–Canton since 1997
Landscaping, lawn care, parking lot sweeping and snow removal for businesses and homes across Stark and Summit County. Every job is done by our own uniformed crew — never a subcontractor.
One call covers the whole property
Instead of pricing out separate vendors for every task, you make one call. We handle the work we notice while we're already on your property — no change orders, no waiting on somebody else's schedule.
Mowing, landscape design, planting, mulch and seasonal cleanups. The same crew sees your property season after season, so nothing gets relearned on your dime.
Residential landscaping
Polymer-edged blades clear the snow without gouging asphalt, hedges and hydrants are flagged before the first storm, and lots, drive lanes and walkways get treated for ice.
Snow & ice removal
More than litter pickup: corners, loading docks and dumpster corrals are detailed, trash cans are emptied and relined, and the gravel snow crews leave behind is cleared.
Parking lot sweeping
25 years of retail construction experience as an owner's representative — scoping, bidding, AIA contracts, permits, insurance and bonding, payment review and final documents.
Construction managementOutside property maintenance
One-time projects or an ongoing agreement — the work is done by our staff, in our trucks, on your schedule.
Sweeping, litter and cigarette-butt pickup, hard-to-reach corners, loading docks and dumpster corrals.
Painting, exterior lighting and asphalt repairs — handled as we spot them while we're already on site.
Plowing, shoveling and ice treatment for lots, drive lanes and walkways — careful around landscaping and light poles.
Removing grime, mildew and buildup so exteriors look as good as the day the siding went on.
Mowing, design, planting and bed care from a crew that knows your property year to year.
Clearing gutters and downspouts so water runs away from the building instead of into it.
Cleaning, staining and repair to keep decks safe, solid and looking the way you want them.
Pruning and removal handled by our trained crew, with the mess hauled away when we leave.
Aeration, overseeding, mulch and a full-property tidy-up between seasons.
Built for both
Same crew, same guarantee — but the scope, scheduling and paperwork look nothing alike. Here's how we run each.
For businesses
We maintain commercial properties, shopping malls, strip malls, restaurants, medical facilities, multi-family and condominium housing, and local and regional government sites. All-inclusive packages mean one call instead of pricing out every job separately — and we make the repairs we discover while tending to other needs.
For homeowners
Give up the Saturday you'd otherwise spend on the yard. We arrive with the whole team and the right equipment, we're typically on and off a property in about 10 minutes for a standard mow, and the clippings are bagged — not left behind. Our experience with demanding corporate clients means we can please the most particular homeowner.
Winter operations
Northeast Ohio winters are rarely gentle. Every plow blade we run is polymer-edged, so it clears snow and ice effectively without gouging the asphalt — fewer potholes and cracks to pay for later.
Parking lot sweeping
It's the first thing customers, employees and visitors see. We clean to your specifications on a regularly scheduled basis — weekly, daily or on call.
We detail the property: loading docks, dumpster corrals, landscape beds and every corner a typical sweep misses. Outdoor trash cans are emptied and relined with every visit, and we clear the gravel buildup snow crews leave behind.
Our guarantee: if you're not satisfied, we correct the issue within 24 hours or we don't bill for that service.
On your first sweep when you call us.
Show us a copy of your current provider's invoice and we'll beat their price by 25%.
Small lots swept for as little as $20 per sweep.
Construction management
Our project manager has 25 years of retail construction experience as a commercial property owner representative — and knows what to do when problems come up mid-build.
We can join as early as lease negotiations: scoping the work, setting preliminary budgets and putting the project out for competitive bid. From there we handle AIA contract administration, confirm permits, insurance and bonding, review payment requests, and track progress against lease deadlines through to warranties and final drawings. Architectural services are available for an additional fee.
How it works
Tell us what the property needs — a single service or the whole package.
A no-obligation estimate scoped to exactly what needs doing. No pressure to buy anything.
Always our own uniformed technicians, on your schedule — never a subcontractor.
Not satisfied? We redo the work in question free of charge.
Since 1997
We handle every customer account personally out of our Canton offices. If a problem comes up, we address it right away — you're not routed through a call center, and you're not one of hundreds of accounts at an out-of-state company's satellite branch.
Staying local keeps our overhead down, too. We don't spend heavily on advertising or a sales staff, and we pass that back to customers as better pricing on better work.
All of the work is done in-house. Our staff average more than four years with the company and several hold specialized training in landscape design and masonry — so the crew that shows up already knows your property.
Nations Maintenance is a drug-free workplace and an equal opportunity employer.
Every job, commercial or residential, is completed by our own uniformed crew — even in an emergency.
Headquartered on South Main Street in North Canton, not a regional office for a national franchise.
Average tenure of more than four years, so the people on your property know it and know you.
Landscape design and masonry expertise on staff, not brought in from outside.
We take on the work we can do properly. That's why customers stay with us long term.
