Paint Creek runs cold and shallow over gravel on its way down to the Clinton River, one of the few streams around here that stays cool all summer. Paint Creek Landscaping takes its name from that water and its work from the yards on either side of it. Mowing, trimming, edging, mulching and the cleanups at both ends of the season keep Rochester Hills properties looking deliberate from April into November. Ground this close to a creek runs from damp shade to open lawn in the space of a single lot, and the work adjusts accordingly. A yard that suits the land it sits on is the result worth having.
