J Evans Property Services is a locally owned and operated landscaping contractor serving Lancaster, PA and surrounding Lancaster County communities. From landscape design and lawn care to drainage solutions and retaining walls, we handle residential and commercial properties — and we offer free local estimates. Call (484) 784-7168 to get started.
Why Lancaster Homeowners Choose a Local Contractor
A national franchise doesn't know that Lancaster County's clay-heavy soils drain differently than what's typical farther east, or that spring thaw timing here shifts mulch schedules by two to three weeks. J Evans Property Services is based in the area and works Lancaster and the surrounding townships every season. That local knowledge translates into practical decisions — the right plants for the region's hardiness zone, grading that accounts for typical precipitation patterns, and scheduling built around how Lancaster winters actually behave.
What Landscaping Services Do We Offer in Lancaster, PA?
J Evans covers the full range of residential and commercial outdoor needs across Lancaster County.
Landscape Design and Installation
We design and install custom landscapes suited to your property's terrain, sun exposure, and budget. Every plan accounts for Lancaster's four distinct seasons, so plantings look good in July and hold up in February.
Lawn Care and Maintenance
Regular mowing, edging, fertilizing, and weed control keep Lancaster-area lawns healthy year-round. Services are available as one-time visits or recurring contracts — no pressure to commit to more than you need.
Mulching and Bed Maintenance
Fresh mulch insulates roots through Lancaster's cold winters and suppresses weeds through summer. We handle bed edging, debris removal, and mulch installation in a single visit.
Drainage Solutions
Standing water is a common problem in Lancaster County's lower-lying properties. We install basins, trenches, and erosion controls that redirect water away from foundations and landscaping before damage occurs.
Retaining Walls and Hardscaping
Custom retaining walls manage slope erosion and add usable square footage to uneven Lancaster properties. We work with stone, block, and timber to match your home's existing aesthetic.
Additional Property Services
Pressure washing, gutter cleaning, snow removal, and light excavation round out our offering — so one local contractor handles what multiple vendors would otherwise split up.
