Landcare, Maintenance + Inspections
Metro Blooms Design+Build has expertise in sustainable landscapes with an emphasis on stormwater management, native vegetation and invasive vegetation management. Our maintenance services are ideal for properties with larger rain gardens and stormwater best management practices. These include governmental, commercial, institutional and multi-family properties — for example, cities, schools, rental complexes, businesses and churches.
Vegetation Management
- We provide comprehensive vegetation management of native plantings. Our staff is highly trained in native and invasive species identification. We emphasize sustainable landscape management practices and prioritize seasonal non-chemical methods.
- Our management strategies include hand-pulling, digging, torching, smothering, mowing, and spraying weeds with organic herbicides. Our crews prioritize using battery-operated landscape equipment.
-
Our services include but are not limited to early-season clean-up, shrub pruning, native and weedy vegetation management, and seed and plant installation.
Inspections and Reporting
- We ensure the optimal function of stormwater practices.
- Our services include developing operations and maintenance (O&M) plans, assistance with City of Minneapolis stormwater fee credit applications, and reporting on stormwater practices (including Minneapolis Chapter 54 compliance reporting).
