When the temperatures start to dip in September, October, and November, it's the ideal time to give your Alabama Gulf Coast landscape the preparation it needs to thrive through winter. Krob Landscape is your local solution for things like lawn care and landscape design, but did you know we also offer a wide range of other landscaping services for residential and commercial properties in Mobile and Baldwin County? With expert services from Krob Landscape, it's easy to "put your landscape to bed for the winter" and ensure a healthy, beautiful lawn and garden come spring.
Here’s how Krob Landscape can help protect and enhance your outdoor spaces for the cooler months ahead:
To foster robust regrowth, many plants benefit from being trimmed back—but it must be done at the correct time of year for the best results, or you risk losing next year's flowers or leaving the plant susceptible to pests, disease, and harsh winter temperatures. Krob Landscape’s team understands the right timing and technique to prune and cut back shrubs, perennials, and ornamental grasses, helping your plants look their best, year after year. You can trust Krob to handle these delicate tasks and ensure your plants are well-prepared for dormancy.
Mulching is one of the best ways to shield plant roots from fluctuating temperatures and winter frosts. By adding a layer of protective mulch, Krob Landscape helps keep soil warm and retain moisture, protecting your landscape’s foundation. Our experts will assess your landscape’s needs and apply the appropriate mulch in key areas, fortifying your plants for the winter and beyond.
September and October bring a cascade of falling leaves. It's a magical time of year, but the charm of autumn leaf-fall can also present challenges to your property, if left unmanaged. Fallen leaves can smother grass, attract pests, and contribute to diseases that harm your landscape. Krob Landscape offers comprehensive leaf removal services to keep your yard clear, healthy, and looking great through fall and winter.
The Gulf Coast can face heavy rains just about any time of the year, which can lead to soil erosion and wash away vital nutrients. This time of year, most plants go into a dormant phase, and if you have exposed soil, it may stay that way for a while. Krob Landscape can protect exposed soil with landscape fabric, erosion control blankets, and other solutions to prevent erosion and stabilize your plant beds. Our team will prepare your landscape with the right techniques to weather winter and early spring rain storms, keeping soil in place for the health of your plants.
Take the guesswork out of lawn fertilizer—leave it to your local landscape experts!Aerating and fertilizing before winter can make a significant difference in your lawn’s health come spring. Aeration allows nutrients to reach deep into the soil, while a fall fertilizer boosts root strength, giving your lawn the resources it needs to endure cooler temperatures. Krob Landscape’s fall aeration and fertilization services provide your grass with the strength it needs to withstand winter.
Freezing temperatures can damage irrigation systems if left unprepared. Krob Landscape’s irrigation winterization service includes draining and insulating pipes to prevent cracking, ensuring your system is ready for use when warmer weather returns. This proactive step helps you avoid costly repairs and prolongs the life of your irrigation equipment.
While preparing your landscape for winter, Krob Landscape can add seasonal touches like fall flowers—think colorful mums or asters—that thrive in cooler weather. We also provide a thorough yard or commercial landscape cleanup, removing debris and dead plants that could harbor pests. A tidy landscape not only looks great but also provides a healthier environment for your outdoor space as it transitions into winter.
Preparing your landscape for winter involves more than just a quick clean-up—it’s about equipping your yard, garden, or commercial landscape to thrive through the challenges of the colder months. The friendly, experienced landscaping experts at Krob Landscape offer a range of fall maintenance services designed specifically for the unique climate we enjoy in Mobile County and Baldwin County, AL. Whether you’re looking for leaf removal, mulching, erosion control, or irrigation winterization, our team is here to make sure your landscape is set up for a healthy winter.

If you're looking for ways to enhance the outdoor spaces around your home or business, maybe it's time to think beyond the lawn, flowering plants, and trees. As beautiful and inviting as healthy landscaping can be, the smart way to make your residential or commercial property look better all year long is to invest in attractive and effective hardscaping features.
Krob Landscape is probably best known for providing coastal Alabama, the Mississippi Gulf Coast, and the Florida Panhandle with stellar landscape design, installation, and maintenance services, but we can help you in even more ways: In addition to tending to the living plants in your landscape, we're also your local experts for professional hardscaping services.

Hardscape elements are the more structural, non-living features of your landscape. Hardscaping is typically made of "hard" materials, hence the name: Features made of treated wood, metal, concrete, stone, or gravel all qualify as hardscaping. Popular hardscape elements include things like stone or gavel pathways, flagstone patios, retaining walls, and other permanent fixtures. These types of features may serve both functional and decorative purposes, and they are available in a wide variety of materials, styles, and colors. It's possible to achieve a vast array of looks to create your desired aesthetic, from rustic and relaxed to elegant and formal. Because elements of hardscaping are not alive, they provide a consistent and durable enhancement to your property and can be enjoyed in every season for many years to come.
Effective hardscaping is often the backbone of a well-designed landscape. Whether you need a retaining wall to prevent soil erosion, a system of walkways to provide safe, tidy access to different parts of your property, or a patio for more comfortable outdoor entertaining, the experienced and friendly crew at Krob Landscape can help you design a customized hardscaping element that adds structure and function to your outdoor space.

Has your landscaping seen better days? Plants get old and die, hardscaping deteriorates, lawns become patchy, and landscaping styles change. What seemed perfectly fine several years ago now looks drab, neglected, and sad. When you see something daily or every week or two, you get used to it and tune out gradual changes. You may not notice that your commercial landscaping has visibly declined over time—but to someone seeing it with fresh eyes, it can communicate loudly.
Does looking at your current landscaping make you smile—or feel a little down? Does it communicate success and prosperity—or failure and austerity? Does it look fresh—or tired? Is the design conveniently and practically designed for the needs of your customers, clients, patients, or visitors? Does your landscape and hardscape design helpfully guide people where they need to go, or does it impede or confuse them? If you were driving down the road and saw your landscaping, would you find it inviting?
People are instinctively drawn to attractive and well-maintained spaces, even if they don't consciously recognize it, and on some level they make assumptions about the businesses and people behind those spaces. Landscaping that looks well-kept suggests that the people inside will take good care of us, too.
We're more likely to stop and stay in a place that looks valued and cared-for than in one that seems forgotten and rough around the edges. If your commercial landscape is lacking in curb appeal, you could be missing out on business without ever knowing why.
Of course, not all of our clients need to take the time to make an honest appraisal of how their commercial property comes across to others. Maybe you're well aware of exactly how your property's landscaping looks to a new observer because you've just come into ownership of it and have specific renovation plans for its improvement. Or perhaps you're starting business in a new building in Baldwin County and need to build up the landscape from scratch. That can be overwhelming, so you may want some guidance in where to start.
Whatever your circumstances, Krob Landscape can help! We assist commercial clients with properties of all types and scales. Whether you're starting from a blank slate or improving upon what's already there, our commercial landscape designers can give you the support you need. From professionally implementing your own ideas to drawing up a unique, customized design for your approval, we'll provide exactly the level of support and service that you require.
If your commercial property is due for an upgrade and a refresh, there's no better time to go ahead and install irrigation at the same time! We offer irrigation design, irrigation installation, and irrigation support. Keep your plantings looking great for longer by ensuring that they receive the optimal amount of water. Our professional irrigation team can make dry, dead lawn and frizzled-up plants a thing of the past!
With an experienced local landscape company at your side, you get the benefit of our nearly forty nears of experience and expertise. The professional commercial landscapers at Krob have specialized knowledge about landscaping design in this beautiful part of the world. We can put that to work for you, assisting you in identifying the most effective and innovative ways to make the most of your space. Allow Krob Landscape to enhance your commercial property, with both beauty and function in mind.
Once you get your new landscape design installed to perfection, we can also help you keep it that way! We offer a comprehensive range of commercial landscape services, including RLM (Regular Landscape Maintenance) programs, so your beautiful commercial landscape can continue to look its best, through spring, summer, and beyond.

If you're responsible for managing a commercial property, you have a lot of responsibility resting on your shoulders. When you're balancing so many duties, landscape maintenance may not seem particularly urgent. After all, the grass can't complain, and people don't tend to think about shrubs on a daily basis. However, while you can let the lawn care slide for a week here and there, it's only a matter of time before minor problems snowball into major ones.
With landscape maintenance, as with many things in life, the key to success is consistency. That can be a little tricky when you're dealing with so many demands on your time and attention. Fortunately, there's help! At Krob Landscape, we recognize how busy our clients are, which is why we offer Regular Landscape Maintenance (RLM) programs that ensure your commercial property receives the consistent, attentive care it requires to stay at its best, all year long.
Keeping your commercial landscape in tip-top shape takes effort and commitment, but it delivers results that make it unquestionably worthwhile. Consider landscape upkeep as an investment in improving and protecting your business. Keeping everything trim, tidy, and looking its best boosts your commercial property in terms of aesthetics and safety:
Whatever type of commercial property you manage, you want to appeal to potential customers, visitors, or residents. If your commercial landscape looks neglected, you're missing out on the chance to make an excellent first impression. Unkempt lawns, out-of-control weeds, and sickly plants can give passers-by a bad feeling about the business behind the landscape. They may think—even if only subconsciously—that a poorly kept landscape is a sign that your business isn't responsible, capable, or detail-oriented. It may even lead to lost business, if they decide to go elsewhere.
On the other hand, with an aesthetically pleasing commercial landscape, you immediately and convincingly communicate to the rest of the world that your business is attentive, successful, and prepared to tackle any challenge. Well-maintained and appealing landscapes naturally draw people in closer, so why not use that to your advantage by bringing customers to your door?
This is especially important for those managing multifamily properties or other commercial properties where people are likely to be walking around and enjoying the landscape—but really, anyone should give some thought to the safety of their property's exterior spaces. If landscaping is neglected for too long, a number of problems can arise and escape notice. The following are just a few that come to mind:
It's always wise to protect the safety and comfort of visitors, guests, and residents of your commercial property. You're also protecting yourself and your business from potential liability issues by avoiding accidents and injuries! Having routine landscape maintenance keeps weeds, grass, and plants under consistent control and helps you more easily see any issues that need to be addressed. (Your trusty landscape technician will be able to notice and alert you to many of these things, as well.)
So, knowing how important landscape management is for your commercial property, have you considered setting up a Regular Landscape Maintenance (RLM) plan? It's a great way to simplify this aspect of your life: Your property receives the consistent, top-quality landscaping services it needs without repeatedly infringing on your valuable time or taking up more mental bandwidth.
Krob Landscaping makes it easy!
Krob Landcape will work with you to develop a comprehensive plan for your unique commercial property's specific needs. No two properties are exactly the same. Each has its own set of circumstances that require different solutions or maintenance schedules. Also, your landscape goals won't necessarily be the same as someone else's. That's why we customize your RLM to meet your precise requirements.
You'll look through our impressive list of landscape services and select the ones you want. We can advise you to help you make the best choices to achieve your goals within your budget. In addition to the basics of lawn care, we can make seasonal changes to your landscape, such as adding seasonal color and plantings. We can also prune, fertilize, and perform other season-specific tasks, as you wish—at the best time for your plants, to deliver optimal results.
Together, we'll build a maintenance schedule that meets your approval.
Yes, that's it. Once your plan is in place, we'll come out as scheduled to perform the tasks you've selected. You simply make the convenient monthly payments, then leave it all to our dependable landscape technicians. You won't have to remember a thing—but of course if you have any additional concerns or wish to amend your RLM program in any way, we're only a phone call away!
Your commercial landscape will reap the benefits of stable, routine attention and care. As the seasons change, your RLM plan will change, as well, to meet the shifting needs of your lawn and plants. We deliver timely, cost-effective services that maintain your commercial landscape to perfection! You can count on Krob Landscape to deliver professional and attentive service while you focus on the rest of your duties. It's one less thing for you to deal with, month after month!
Call Krob Landscape at 251-945-5157 or contact us online to discuss how our RLM program can simplify and improve your commercial property's landscape care. We offer professional landscape services for all types of commercial properties, including multifamily, retail, hospitality, industrial, and office properties. We look forward to hearing from you!
These past couple of years have brought disruption, change, and a downright different way of looking at life and the world around us. But one of the best ways to get ourselves back to some semblance of normal, is to get back to a good routine. (Uncle Earl said he’d give up his bad routines if people didn’t think he was a quitter).
So, it’s time to stretch those arms, lose an hour of sleep to Daylight Savings Time, and think about planting, caring or even a redesign of the landscape surrounding your business. And at Krob, that routine is our routine.
There are five important aspects we consider when it comes to your commercial landscape and landscaping needs:
• Design • Landscape Installation • Grounds Management • Plant Healthcare • Water Management
Step back and look at your business space. Really look, and what do you see? Is it a place you would pull into when seeking out services? Do the aesthetics appeal to you in a way you would want to do business with you? If you are questioning your answers to these simple questions, then you know you might need some advice. We’re here to help with your design. We will sit with you, look over your current landscape and offer ways to work with you to put your vision into the landscape of your business. We can start from scratch, do a modification or renovation, or a simple moving and/or re-purposing of what you already have. We can also show you why design should include your irrigation needs.
We are a fully equipped landscape company, so new construction or projects small and large don’t scare us, because we have the equipment and expertise to take on any project. We are knowledgeable and well-staffed, and therefore, efficient in executing a landscape plan. But, we don’t sacrifice safety for speed. Our crews are well-trained and always remain safety conscious.
At Krob, we don’t have a specific season. We believe in year-round maintenance and care, and will work with you to build a comprehensive plan that includes seasonal changes – both in color and plants; we prune when pruning is required; and we will develop a timely, yet cost effective plan that calls for us to maintain your commercial surrounds on a routine basis.
While all plants need four basic things for survival: good soil, good water, good light, and good air, plants also require certain nutrients in order to thrive. And if you have ever planted anything, you know that all dirt is not created equal. Plants grown in some parts of the country will not live in others, unless similar conditions exist, and part of that is knowing what is needed to allow for those plants to live and grow and be their beautiful self. That’s where we come in. Experienced in understanding soil needs, irrigations requirements, and design of landscapes to take advantage of available lighting, we can give you the look you desire while maintaining your plants through quality nutrient management, as well as our thorough knowledge and understanding of where and when to apply specific products for insect and weed control and overall beautification of your landscaping.
On average, humans can only go about 3-4 days without water. Well, guess what? For fruits, vegetables and flowering plants, it’s about the same. That’s right. After just a few days, much like us, plants begin to break down and do what they can to survive what to them are drought conditions, often with devastating results for your landscapes. So, unless you have nothing but cacti or other succulents surrounding your office, your plants need water. Krob Landscaping is attuned to your property’s watering needs, and can provide expert services for irrigation systems, water quality testing, French drains, and more.
