01
Ground-level walkthroughs that separate routine upkeep from issues requiring an owner's decision.
Stewardship
Groundskeeping
Grounds care begins with the island itself: wind, salt, dry seasons, soil, water, and the way each residence should meet the land around it.
Standard
A discipline held
in context.
Routine ground-level care for private-residence grounds: mowing, weeding, cleanup, soil and plant observations, and care of the owner's existing plantings.
This page offers a closer view of the discipline without turning private stewardship into a public checklist. The exact scope remains shaped by the residence and by owner direction.
Practice
What steady care includes.
02
Plant, soil, watering, and visible condition notes carried forward clearly.
03
Owner-authorized relocation of existing small plants within the property when needed.
Cadence & Reporting
How often, and what the owner sees.
A groundskeeping visit stays within routine ground-level upkeep: mowing, weeding, collecting fallen debris and fully detached fronds, observing soil and plant conditions, and caring for the owner's existing plantings. We do not cut attached palm fronds, perform elevated tree work, install landscapes, alter irrigation systems, or perform hardscape or other licensed work. When an issue falls outside routine groundskeeping, we document it for the owner. The owner selects, contracts with, directs, and pays any specialist; at the owner's request, LES can share contact information and coordinate arrival and property access.
Groundskeeping follows the visit rhythm set with the owner. Each visit covers routine ground-level upkeep, plant and soil observations, and cleanup appropriate to the property's current condition.
Owners receive a short visit note: what LES observed, what routine work LES completed, and what needs an owner's decision. Photographs accompany visible conditions that benefit from a record.
Questions
What owners ask about this discipline.
How often are the grounds actually checked?
Most estates run on a weekly walkthrough with a deeper quarterly pass, though the cadence is set with the owner and can run tighter during dry season or before a visit.
How are irrigation or hardscape issues handled?
We record visible conditions and notify the owner. Any repair, alteration, installation, or licensed work is handled by a provider the owner selects, contracts with, directs, and pays directly.
What happens to the grounds during the dry season?
Soil moisture and visible plant stress are observed during routine visits. Watering needs or system concerns are documented for the owner without representing LES as an irrigation contractor.
