A mower holding its low steady note across an open acre, a plow blade finding pavement in the dark, hands turning one stone against another until the line finally sits true — that is the working music of Tuxedo Landscaping, a commercial and residential landscape maintenance, design, and install company based in Strafford, New Hampshire. Out here the ground climbs toward the ledges of Blue Job and falls back again toward Bow Lake, and every lawn is a clearing argued out of oak, pine, and old stone wall, so keeping one crisp takes patience and a good eye. The crew handles landscape maintenance, plantings and lawns, hardscape design and installation, snow and ice management, and holiday lighting for properties from Strafford out through Barrington, Barnstead, Northwood, Rochester, Dover, Lee, Nottingham, Somersworth, Durham, Madbury, and Gilmanton. The pleasure of it lives in the aftermath: a dooryard already open before the first commuter headlights swing past, a patio sitting dead level under summer chairs, an edge so clean the grass looks like it chose the line itself. A yard that holds its shape through whatever the calendar sends — that is the whole point of the work.
