The Ann Arbor lawn and landscape company waters the same properties it designs, mows, and maintains, giving clients one team for the life of their landscape.
ANN ARBOR, MI, UNITED STATES, September 8, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Great Outdoors, a full-service lawn and landscape company serving the Ann Arbor area since 1983, has added irrigation installation, maintenance, and repair to the services it delivers in-house for residential and commercial properties across Southeast Michigan. The addition covers new sprinkler system installation, seasonal maintenance, sprinkler repair, and fall winterization with spring startup, available to clients in Ann Arbor, Dexter, Chelsea, Saline, Brighton, and the surrounding communities.
The move consolidates another part of landscape care under a single team. For clients who already rely on Great Outdoors for lawn maintenance, fertilization, and property upkeep, irrigation is now handled by the same company, with one point of contact and one standard of work. Each project begins with a site visit and a plan zoned to how the property is planted and how it grows, rather than a template applied to every yard.
Bringing irrigation in-house reflects how Great Outdoors has grown over more than four decades, by expanding the work it can complete with its own crews instead of routing clients to outside vendors. Watering sits directly alongside the services the company already provides, and keeping it internal gives clients a consistent team from spring startup through fall blowout, along with a clearer line of accountability when a system needs attention.
“Our clients expect reliable, high-quality service and clear communication. By bringing irrigation services in-house, we can better control the quality of every project while providing a seamless experience from initial design and scheduling through installation and ongoing service,” Michael Kowalski, President of Great Outdoors, shared.
“This expansion makes Great Outdoors a true one-stop shop for all our clients’ outdoor needs. Our irrigation team brings more than 100 years of combined experience, holds certifications from Rain Bird, Hunter, and Irritrol, and uses state-of-the-art equipment for system design, installation, and maintenance. Most importantly, our team shares a genuine passion for the outdoors and for helping every client transform their yard into the Great Outdoors.”
Great Outdoors plans to run irrigation on the same seasonal cadence as the rest of its work, scheduling spring startups, mid-season checks, and fall winterization for clients as part of ongoing property care.
Great Outdoors was named to the 2024 Michigan 50 Companies to Watch by Michigan Celebrates Small Business, a statewide recognition of second-stage companies with demonstrated growth.
