About Pat's Landscaping

Girty's Run comes down through the hollow past old retaining walls and a run of houses set close enough to talk between porches. Pat's Landscaping keeps the lawns in that narrow, vertical corner of Allegheny County — yards the size of a room, side strips two mower-widths wide, back plots that end at a wall of sumac. Mowing, string trimming, and edging the walk and the curb line until the grass stops at a definite border. In April the hillside greens all at once and the season opens with a week of long days. Small properties reward precision, and a compact yard cut square looks finished in a way a big lawn has to work for. The work covers Reserve Township and neighboring Millvale, Etna, and Ross.
