The People Behind Your Project
We started in 2006 with a truck, a trailer, and a refusal to cut corners. Twenty years later, that same standard drives every project — 2,500+ completed, 40+ communities served, and a team that still answers the phone when you call.
Our Crew Runs the Job. Every Time.
The Guy Outdoor Services started in 2006 with a commitment that still drives everything we do: our in-house team leads every project from start to finish. Every patio, every retaining wall, every pond, every drainage fix is managed by people we trained, using equipment we own. When a specialized trade is needed, we work with a small group of trusted subcontractors we've vetted over years — but our crew is always on-site, always accountable, and always the ones you deal with.
Twenty years and 2,500+ projects later, we've expanded from lawn care into nine specialized divisions — landscape design, hardscaping, water features, retaining walls, drainage, outdoor kitchens, lighting, lawn maintenance, and commercial snow management. One crew, one point of contact, one company accountable for every inch of your project.
From residential gardens in Bloomfield Hills to commercial snow contracts in Troy and Sterling Heights, our scope has grown, but our standards haven't budged. We plan meticulously, build precisely, and stand behind every project we complete.
Our Values
The principles that have guided every project, every client interaction, and every business decision for over 20 years.
Uncompromising Quality
We never cut corners on materials, installation techniques, or finish work. Every retaining wall, patio, and planting bed is built to last through Michigan's demanding seasons. Our reputation depends on projects that still look exceptional years after completion.
Client-First Communication
You will always know your project timeline, budget status, and next steps. We provide written estimates, scheduled check-ins, and proactive updates. No surprises, no ambiguity, no unanswered calls.
Accountability & Integrity
We stand behind our work without exception. Fully licensed, fully insured, and backed by industry memberships that require continuing education and adherence to professional standards. If something is not right, we make it right.
Community Investment
Metro Detroit is home. We hire locally, source materials from Michigan suppliers when possible, and invest back into the communities where our clients and our families live. Our success is tied directly to the neighborhoods we serve.

Invested in Metro Detroit
The Guy Outdoor Services is more than a landscaping company. We are a part of the Metro Detroit community. Since 2006, we have been headquartered at 21605 Groesbeck Highway in Warren, and we take pride in the neighborhoods where our clients and our team members live.
We hire locally, train within our organization, and build long-term careers for our crew members. When community organizations need help with outdoor projects, we step up. Our goal has always been to leave every property and every community a little better than we found it.
