Salt air pushes inland off New Haven Harbor, and it shapes the year here — long humid growing weeks, then a winter that arrives sideways with the wind behind it. J&L Property Services keeps up with both ends of that: lawn care through the green months and snow removal once the cold sets in. It is straightforward work done in order — grass cut and tidied while it grows, pavement opened up again after a storm. The reward is small and daily: a lawn that looks looked-after, and a way out to the road when the morning is still dark.
