THE WOODLANDS, Texas--For 18 years, The Lawn Ranger Company has been keeping local lawns and commercial properties beautiful and green year-round. With no more freezes, now is the perfect time for residents to get their lawn looking beautiful for the Spring, and The Lawn Ranger is here to help.

The Lawn Ranger keeps lawns beautiful year-round


Walt Crowder, owner of The Lawn Ranger, didn’t always know he wanted to start a lawn business. In 1995, Crowder was a school administrator and started mowing lawns during the summer. After working indoors for 25 years, the 48-year old was just happy to be out in the sun during the summer months. It wasn’t long before he got a call from a local management company who offered to give him properties that he could mow. By the end of the summer in 1995, Crowder’s business was growing, but his mowing equipment was worn out. He had a decision to make. He could either go back to his educational job, or buy better equipment for his growing lawn business. Crowder chose the latter, and in order to offer more services than just mowing lawns, he took classes on landscaping and gardening. He was soon able to hire a full-time landscaper, and ever since, The Lawn Ranger has been a full-service fertilization, landscape, and lawn maintenance company that has been serving The Woodlands and surrounding areas.

At the Lawn Ranger Company, there are now three different divisions in order to meet every customer’s need. The fertilization program, also known as ‘The Green Lawn System’ is a year-round service that provides care for a resident’s lawn, turf, shrubs and ornamentals so that they have the greenest and healthiest lawn on the block. The lawn maintenance division includes mowing, shrub trimming, lawn and landscape maintenance programs, and irrigation system checks. The third division is all about landscaping. The service offers installations for gardens and flowerbeds, trees and shrubs, borders, drainage solutions, mulch and much more.

Walt Crowder doesn’t just care about lawns. He cares about his employees and his customers. The mission of The Lawn Ranger Company is to reflect Christian values and high ethical standards with every customer and employee.

“I like to treat my customers like I would want to be treated,” said Crowder. “I treat them as well as my employees and we like to give people the greenest lawn on the block.”

The Lawn Ranger Co. is also taking customer service to a whole new level. The business just recently launched a new portal on their website that allows customers to pay online, view their account and services, and provide comments. That’s not all, however. The Lawn Ranger is cutting-edge in terms of technology that is available. The company now uses aerial pictometry, which allows employees to measure properties online and store the size of each property into a database.

“If anyone calls to request an estimate, we can give them a price right away from our database because it is already measured,” said Crowder.

Spring is the busiest season for The Lawn Ranger because people are thinking about new gardens, new flowers and enhancing their landscape. Each month, including March, the landscape company gives gardening tips for a healthy and beautiful lawn that can be seen on their blog. Since there will probably not be another freeze, Crowder recommends to go ahead and start planting spring flowers.

“This is the time plants are going to start growing rapidly so they need food and water,” said Crowder. “This is also a good time to plant shrubs so they get a burst of color for the spring.”

For quality customer service and a beautiful yard year-round, The Lawn Ranger Company will not disappoint. For the fifth consecutive year, Crowder and his team have won Best of the Woodlands for their excellent landscaping and lawn services.

“That is due to our outstanding employees,” stated Crowder. “They are the face of our company. They are out there doing their job and doing it right. Hats off to my team. I appreciate our customers casting their vote for us.”
