On the northwest edge of Novi the land runs down to Walled Lake, and on a summer evening the breeze off the water carries a good few streets inland. Jacob's Outsoor Services keeps the lawns in that part of town and well beyond it — mowing on schedule, string trimming around fences and stepped-down back yards, edging the drives so the whole property reads sharp from the road. Ground near the water grows differently, damper and faster at the low end, and the cut has to account for it. Finishing a yard just as the light turns gold over the lake is a decent way to end a day. Lawn care throughout Novi and its neighbors.
