Our process
How we work, start to finish
- 1
Tell us what “done” looks like
Address, photos, and priorities—online quote or a quick call. We ask about access, pets, irrigation, and HOA quirks up front.
- 2
Written scope before crew day
You get plain-language scope: what’s included, what isn’t, and how weather might move the schedule.
- 3
Route-built execution
Crews trained for Midlands properties—humidity, pollen, shade lines, and the small details neighbors notice.
- 4
Check-in after the visit
If something’s off, we want to hear it within 24 hours—fixes stay small when communication is fast.
What makes Midlands Exterior Solutions different
Not a slogan list—specific choices we make on Midlands routes.
Route honesty
We quote for real drive time and lot layout—not a national flat rate that changes on arrival.
Surface-matched washing
Concrete, vinyl, and wood don’t get the same tip pressure. That’s how you avoid etched driveways and stripped paint.
Bed discipline
Mulch depth and trunk clearance matter in SC heat—we treat root flares and irrigation heads as non-negotiable details.
Weather literacy
When rain slides a wash or a mow, we communicate early with a reschedule window—you’re not left guessing.
Pricing expectations (ranges, not guesses)
Final quotes depend on access, debris, and square footage—these bands help you budget before we see the property.
| Service line | Typical residential band | What moves the number |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly / bi-weekly mowing | $45–$95+ per visit | Lot size, edging, bagging, corner footage |
| Mulch refresh | $350–$1,200+ | Bed linear feet, depth, weed pressure |
| Driveway / porch wash | $175–$450+ | Square footage, organic growth, staining |
| Yard cleanup + haul-off | $250–$900+ | Volume, limb size, bed cutback scope |
Illustrative ranges for the Midlands market—your written quote is the source of truth.
What happens after you request a quote
- Same-day or next-business-day reply when routes allow—longer during peak spring weeks.
- Clarifying questions about gates, pets, parking, and any HOA or PM paperwork.
- Written scope + price—if something needs an on-site look, we’ll say so honestly.
- Schedule lock with weather notes; you’ll get communication if the day has to move.

| Service | Great when… | Watch-outs |
|---|---|---|

| Landscaping | Long-term bed health and a coordinated front-yard story | Plant selection matters in heat—avoid impulse buys that won’t last |
| Pressure washing | Fast visual lift on concrete; great before hosting or listing | Delicate surfaces need softer methods—don’t ‘max pressure’ everything |

Locally owned, Midlands-rooted crews
We’re not a national lead broker. Midlands Exterior Solutions is owned and run by Nick Creighton and John Cundiff—two long-time crew leads who each ran their own commercial route truck for a national landscape services company before bringing the same standards to a residential book across Lexington, Columbia, and the rest of the Midlands.
What to expect when you book
- Written scope before work starts—what we’re doing, where we’re working, and how we’ll protect landscaping and hardscape.
- Weather-aware scheduling: if a wash or mowing day needs to move, we tell you early with a clear reschedule window.
- Respect for access: gate codes, pets, irrigation, and parking—we confirm details so crews aren’t guessing on arrival.
- Photos on request for recurring maintenance so you can see consistency visit to visit.
Insurance & licensing
- General liability coverage — request a certificate of insurance (COI) for your HOA or property manager.
- We do not send uninsured crews to residential properties.
- Licensed to operate in Lexington County and the greater Midlands.
Ask us for a copy of our insurance certificate or business license at any time.
