Steve’s Lawns was built on hard work, experience, and a simple promise: to show up, do the job right, and stand behind every project. What started as a small operation during Steve’s high school years has grown into a trusted outdoor service company serving Northern New Jersey, Rockland County, NY, and Bergen County.

A Business Built From the Ground Up

Steve’s passion for outdoor work began early. While attending the University at Buffalo, he spent summers working in masonry and learning the foundations of construction, landscaping, and site work. After college, Steve gained additional experience working in the city before focusing full-time on growing his own business.

In 2008, Steve acquired the company’s headquarters property, which became the base for expanding services and building a strong local reputation. Over the years, Steve’s Lawns has grown beyond traditional lawn care into a full-service outdoor solutions company offering everything from lawn programs to complex excavation and drainage projects.

Steve has also been recognized in Entrepreneur Magazine, highlighting the dedication and entrepreneurial spirit behind the company’s growth.

What We Believe In

At Steve’s Lawns, how we show up for customers matters just as much as the finished result. Our core principles guide every project:

• Honest and reliable service.
• Projects completed the right way, never rushed.
• No shortcuts or cutting corners.
• We stand behind our work.
• If we break it, we replace it.
• Professional teams with uniforms and branded trucks.
• A long-term company, not a fly-by-night operation.

Our hiring process focuses on bringing in team members who share these values. Every crew member represents the company with professionalism, respect for your property, and attention to detail.

What Makes Our Process Different

Many lawn care companies focus on one service. Steve’s Lawns takes a broader approach. Because we understand both landscaping and structural site work, we look at the entire property, not just one part. That means better long-term solutions and fewer surprises down the road.

Steve also completed the required chemical certification testing to safely operate professional lawn treatment programs. This ensures that applications are handled responsibly and effectively for the health of your property.

Our Commitment to Customers

From the first phone call to the final walkthrough, our goal is to create a smooth and dependable experience. We communicate clearly, address concerns quickly, and treat every property like it is our own.

Around here, people say, “If you need something done at your house, call Steve.” That reputation comes from years of consistent work and strong relationships with customers throughout Northern Jersey and nearby New York communities.
