About Chris Nichols Landscaping

On the Frederick County side of the ridge the creeks run west, and by mid-October the low ground along them fills with gold and rust. Chris Nichols Landscaping spends that stretch of the year hauling leaves off Mount Airy lawns, cutting the grass down to its last tidy height, and putting beds to bed before the first hard freeze. Then the weather flips and the same trucks are out plowing driveways and salting the walks that ice over in the shade. Working a landscape here means respecting water — where it sheets across a slope, where it pools, where it turns slick overnight. Done right, a yard looks composed in November and passable at six in the morning in January.
