What We Evaluate

Landscape Performance Audit

A detailed, eyes-on review of your entire property - turf health, bed conditions, plant material, drainage, hardscape, and overall maintenance quality. We document what's working, what isn't, and what your contractor may have been overlooking.

Irrigation System Audit

A zone-by-zone inspection of your irrigation system: coverage, distribution uniformity, controller programming, backflow compliance, and water waste. We identify broken heads, inefficient scheduling, and opportunities to reduce water cost without sacrificing coverage.

Vendor Performance Audit

Are you actually getting what you pay for? We review your current contract against observed site conditions, visit-by-visit documentation, and industry standards. This audit gives HOA boards and property managers the evidence they need for vendor accountability conversations.

Landscape Evaluation

See your property through
expert eyes

Most property managers and HOA boards don't have the horticultural background to know whether their landscape contractor is doing excellent work or barely getting by. Our landscape audit closes that gap - giving you a professional, documented assessment you can act on.

  • Full property walkthrough with photo documentation of every deficiency
  • Turf health scoring across all maintained areas
  • Plant material condition assessment - disease, stress, and decline identification
  • Bed maintenance review: edging, weed pressure, mulch depth, and coverage
  • Written report with prioritized findings and recommended actions
Most clients find 3-5 documented deficiencies in the first audit
These are issues their current contractor either missed or wasn't addressing - giving boards concrete leverage for service conversations or contract negotiations.

Irrigation Evaluation

Water waste is
money waste

A poorly programmed or neglected irrigation system can waste thousands of dollars in water annually - and most property managers don't realize it. Our irrigation audit identifies every inefficiency, compliance issue, and opportunity to reduce cost without compromising your landscape.

  • Zone-by-zone pressure and coverage testing
  • Distribution uniformity measurement - catch-can testing where needed
  • Controller audit: schedule review and ET-based optimization recommendations
  • Backflow preventer inspection and compliance documentation
  • Leak detection and head condition survey across all zones
  • Water budget analysis with estimated annual savings from recommended changes

Who Requests Audits

Built for the people responsible
for commercial grounds

HOA Boards

Get independent documentation of landscape quality to hold your management company or contractor accountable - or to support a bid for new services.

Community Managers

Back your vendor conversations with data. Whether renewing a contract, negotiating scope, or managing a complaint from residents, an audit gives you facts - not opinions.

Property Managers

Ensure your landscape vendor is delivering what the contract specifies. Audits are especially valuable at the start of a new contract year or when performance complaints arise.

Asset Managers

Protect the value of your portfolio. Landscape condition directly affects curb appeal, tenant retention, and property valuation - an annual audit is basic due diligence.
