East of Islip the yards start backing up against the pine and oak scrub that runs toward the Connetquot, and those edges want watching in every month. Prestige Tick shrub & lawn Care Corp works both sides of the year out there — mowing, edging, trimming and cleanups while the ground is soft, plowing driveways and walkways and salting once it is not. Winter storms come off the Atlantic wet and heavy along this stretch, and a drive has to be opened early to be opened at all. Summer asks for the opposite: patience, a set interval, the same clean border every time. What it earns is a property that never gets away from anybody.
