THE NORTH OKANAGAN
Weekly Strata Lawn Care and Mowing Services That Keeps Residents and Councils HappY
Managing a strata property involves a long to-do list — and lawn care, hedge trimming, and seasonal cleanup are often the first things residents notice.
OPS Vernon provides dependable, professional strata property maintenance across Vernon, Coldstream, Armstrong, Enderby, and the North Okanagan. From weekly mowing and hedge trimming to snow removal and weed control, our crews handle outdoor upkeep so you don’t have to juggle multiple contractors or field complaints.

BUILT FOR PROPERTY MANAGERS AND COUNCILS

Hi Matt. Hey, the banks are looking really good! Thank you! You actually did the lower bank along Okanagan Avenue which I didn't think was in our contract but I'd have to double check because it is something that should be included I guess. Are you sure you had enough hours for it all? I can tell you that you guys have done the quickest job and the most thorough job that I've seen over the years.
-Rory, Strata President
-
Do I need to be home during the service?Nope. As long as we have access to your lawn, we’ll complete the visit and leave a summary afterward.
-
Can I start mid-season?Absolutely. We’ll assess where your lawn’s at and adjust the plan accordingly.
-
Is it safe for pets and kids?Yes. Our treatments are residential-safe and approved for use around families and pets. We’ll let you know how long to wait before re-entry (usually a few hours).
-
Do I need a long-term contract?Nope. We offer both ongoing and one-time services. You can book a single treatment or go with the full three-visit program.
-
What if my lawn has issues?We’ll take a look and recommend specific treatments if needed. No one-size-fits-all here — we tailor the plan to your lawn.
-
Can I get on your priority route mid-season?Yes, space permitting. Contact us to check availability and we’ll do our best to add you to the active route.
-
How early do you start snow removal?We track local forecasts closely. For active clients, we begin clearing as soon as accumulation reaches the trigger point we’ve agreed on — typically 2 to 3 inches.
-
Do you clear sidewalks and walkways by hand?Yes. We use snowblowers and shovels for tight spaces, stairs, and entryways that can’t be cleared by plow.
-
What kind of de-icing products do you use?We use commercial-grade salt and eco-friendly ice melt, depending on the surface type and your preferences.
-
Do I need to sign a seasonal contract?Nope. We offer both seasonal packages and pay-per-visit options, depending on your needs and property type.
-
Are your staff trained and insured?Yes. All crew members are covered by WorkSafeBC, and we carry full commercial liability insurance. Our team is trained in safe, respectful work practices for public environments.
-
Do you provide detailed reporting?Yes. We can deliver maintenance logs, condition reports, and completion summaries as needed for your records or council reporting.
-
Can you work around public events or busy hours?Absolutely. We’ll coordinate with your team to schedule work at off-peak hours or in between public programming to minimize disruption.
-
What types of municipal spaces do you maintain?We regularly service parks, public boulevards, trails, city-owned lots, and landscaped medians. If it’s a public space with green care needs, we’ve likely worked on it. We also provide abandoned waste clean up and bylaw property clean up services.
-
Do I need to be home for service?Not unless you want to be. As long as we have access to the system and know where the controls are, we can get the job done without needing to bother you.
-
What happens during a spring start-up?We check the full system: lines, sprinkler heads, timer, and water pressure. We also adjust for weather so your lawn gets what it needs — not too much, not too little.
-
Can you service older systems?Absolutely. We’ve worked with everything from newer smart timers to legacy systems. If parts are failing or outdated, we’ll recommend practical fixes or upgrades.
-
Do I really need to shut down my system in the fall?Yes — especially in the Okanagan. Fall blowouts prevent frozen lines and cracked pipes. Skipping it could mean costly repairs come spring.
-
What if I don’t know what kind of system I have?No problem. We’ll assess what you’ve got, test it, and walk you through how it works — or what it needs.
-
Do you handle last-minute cleanups?Yes — we’re used to tight timelines. Whether it’s a move-out, new tenant, or showing tomorrow, we’ll do our best to fit you in.
-
What’s included in a typical service?It depends on the site, but common tasks include lawn care, hedge trimming, leaf or debris removal, and weed control — all tailored to your timeline.
-
Can you coordinate with our property manager or realtor?Absolutely. Just give us their contact details and we’ll handle the logistics directly.
-
Is this a one-time service or ongoing?Most transition work is one-time, but we also offer recurring maintenance if you want the property looking great between tenants.
-
What types of properties do you service?We work with commercial storefronts, office buildings, rental units, and mixed-use properties — anywhere that needs a strong first impression.
-
What happens if there’s an issue or complaint?We address it promptly and professionally. Your residents’ experience matters, and we make sure it reflects well on your management.
-
Can you handle everything year-round?Yes. We offer all-season services — including mowing, pruning, leaf cleanup, snow removal, and more — tailored to the needs of your property.
-
Are your crews licensed and insured?Absolutely. Our team is fully licensed, insured, and trained for strata and commercial work — including snow and pesticide application.
-
Do you work directly with strata councils or property managers?We’re comfortable working with both. Whether it’s the council or a designated contact, we’ll keep communication clear and make sure expectations are met.
-
How do you price strata maintenance?We’ll visit the property, assess your needs, and provide a customized quote. Pricing depends on size, services, and frequency.
