Who We Are

For over 16 years, our team has proudly served the Chapel Hill area with dependable, detail-oriented landscape care. While we specialize in residential weekly maintenance, our experience extends far beyond routine lawn service. We understand that a beautiful property isn’t just created — it’s consistently cared for.

Our core focus is providing reliable weekly and biweekly maintenance that keeps homes looking polished, healthy, and well-managed year-round. From precise mowing and edging to weed control, plant monitoring, and seasonal cleanups, we take a proactive approach to protecting and enhancing each landscape we maintain.

In addition to ongoing residential care, we bring extensive experience in seasonal services, landscape enhancements, hardscape installation, and commercial property upkeep. Whether installing new plant material, refreshing mulch beds, aerating and overseeding turf, or managing larger commercial grounds, we approach every project with professionalism, efficiency, and long-term vision.

Our clients value consistency, clear communication, and a hands-on leadership approach that ensures every property receives the attention it deserves. We are committed to maintaining landscapes that are not only visually appealing, but healthy, functional, and built to thrive in North Carolina’s changing seasons.

Client Testimonials

  • Brad

    “I have worked with Thomas and his team for four years, shortly after we moved to our current location, and strongly recommend he and his company, Personalized Landscape. The name truly represents his attitude and results. Unlike the huge landscape companies you see, he gets directly involved with his team and offers unique designs and services to each home owner. He has a steady consistent crew that gets to know your property and are extremely friendly and courteous guys. They take pride in their efforts and results. Though Personalized is a smaller family owned company, they are much more than a maintenance company they have the scale and experience with larger projects such as extensive landscaping remodels, irrigation, lawn issues, correct fertilizing methodology to name a few. I met Thomas through a neighbor and he took over from a sub par effort from another company and has transformed my property into one of the best looking yards, in a neighborhood of nice yards. That’s not only my word but that of other residents.”

    “I have trusted Thomas and Personalized Landscaping with my yard for the past 20 years, and I couldn’t be happier with their services. Thomas has taken care of my yard all this time, and his dedication truly shows. What I appreciate most is that he and his crew don’t wait to be asked — they notice what needs attention and take care of it proactively. Their reliability, attention to detail, and pride in their work have kept my property looking its best year after year. I highly recommend Personalized Landscaping, Inc. to anyone looking for dependable, high-quality landscaping service.”

    “How many people have had the same lawn service for over 15 years?  We have, and it is because of one person, Thomas Traverse.  I frankly have no idea how many homes Thomas services.  The truth is it doesn’t matter.  The business name says it all, “Personalized Landscaping”.  Thomas is always there, he is always responsive, he and his people provide excellent service.”
