August evenings on the east side of the city arrive with a wall of cicada noise and air you could lean against. Gonzalez Outdoor Services is out working through it — mowing, running the trimmer along fence lines and foundations, edging back the creep of grass over concrete, and clearing away every clipping before the day ends. Late summer turf in Farmington Hills is stubborn: fast in the shade, tired in the sun, and never uniform across a single yard. Handling both halves of a lawn well takes attention that does not show unless it is missing. The reward comes at dusk, when the sprinklers start up over ground that finally looks finished.
