The Sugar River runs right through the middle of Claremont, loud in April, low and glassy by August, and the year turns around it. Brooks Property Improvements LLC works both halves of that year: mowing, trimming, mulching and cleanups while the valley is green, then plowing, shoveling and sanding once the drives fill in. Summer work ends with a lawn cut in even passes and a bed line you could follow with your eye. Winter work ends earlier than most people wake, with the driveway cleared and the walk gritted. Same property, same hands, whichever way the weather is going.
