Haddonfield's historic homes deserve landscaping with the same attention to detail: precise edging, quality materials that suit the house, and a tidy job site every visit.
Haddonfield was the second town in New Jersey to create a historic district, and it shows: Kings Highway, the blocks around town center, and the larger homes of West Haddonfield all have a look that new work should blend into, not fight.
That shapes how we work here. We choose paver and stone colors that suit older brick and clapboard, keep walkways and garden walls in proportion to the house, and plant under big, old shade trees without damaging their roots. Borough-owned street trees are off-limits to private contractors, and we treat them that way.
For routine care, we keep lawns striped, beds edged and leaves moving to the curb strip on the borough's schedule, with a clean property every time we leave.
Walkways and patios in pavers or tumbled stone with colors and patterns that suit a historic house.
Garden and seat walls built to proportion, so the landscape frames the home instead of competing with it.
Plantings chosen to thrive under Haddonfield's mature tree canopy, installed with care around existing roots.
Precise mowing, edging and striping for properties where curb appeal matters.
Fall clean-ups timed to the borough's three loose-leaf collection passes, with leaves on the parking strip, never in the street.
Neat, fresh mulch and hand-cut bed edges every season.
Exterior changes in Haddonfield's historic district can require a Certificate of Appropriateness. The Historic Preservation Commission says it doesn't regulate landscaping or plants, but walls, fences and hardscape near the street can come up. We check with the Zoning Officer before building anything visible from the street.
Haddonfield's Shade Tree Commission controls borough-owned trees, and only borough crews may trim or remove them. We work around them and protect their roots during any excavation.
Loose leaves are collected late October through December in three passes. Piles belong on the parking strip, since leaves in the street violate borough code, and should be free of sticks, ivy and grass clippings.
Construction permits in Haddonfield come with a tree protection certification requirement. For bigger hardscape projects we plan access and staging to keep equipment off tree roots.
Local rules change. We confirm permits and requirements with Haddonfield Borough before any job that needs them.

“P&F have been my lawn service for 3 years now. They never disappoint. They are always on schedule and they do a great job on my lawn. Because of my lack of time, my flower bed had a lot of weeds growing, and it was too much for me to tackle so that I could plant my flowers for the summer. P&F came and weeded my flower bed and laid down mulch for me. They are very professional and very kind. I would recommend them to anyone who needs lawn service or landscaping done.”
“This team does an awesome job! They are very professional and detail oriented. I have used 5 different companies this year and this is the first to actually listen and cut at the height I requested. Pablo is a true professional that puts the client first and his team is very meticulous and detail oriented. They do “top notch” work. The lawn looks like a lush green carpet. I will be using them for other projects. If I could rate them a 10, I would.”
“I can't say enough good things about P&F Lawn Care. I work for a nonprofit preschool and reached out to David a few months ago as we needed a new lawn service. From day one, they have provided excellent service, proven to be extremely responsive and go above and beyond to accommodate all our needs. I have not hesitated to recommend them to friends as well. Thank you David and P&F Lawn Care for your exceptional work ethic and commitment to providing high quality service! We couldn't be happier!!!”
Possibly. The Historic Preservation Commission reviews exterior changes in the district and says it doesn't regulate landscaping itself, but walls, fences and street-facing hardscape can need a Certificate of Appropriateness. We confirm with the borough's Zoning Officer before starting.
No, and neither can any private contractor. That strip usually holds borough-owned shade trees, which only Haddonfield's crews may trim or remove. We can contact the Shade Tree Commission on your behalf or work around the tree.
The borough makes three loose-leaf collection passes from late October through December. We clear your lawn and beds and place clean leaf piles, with no sticks or ivy, on the parking strip ahead of each pass.
We also work in Haddon Township, Haddon Heights, Barrington, Audubon and Tavistock. Not sure if we cover your street? Just ask.
