Our Story

REC Lawns was established from a childhood vision by the founder Russell E. Cooper. Today we have grown to a successful lawn and landscaping company.

“One of my fondest memories as a young adult was driving around with my Father as he continued to grow our family-owned business.  His company began in the 70s and he would spend endless hours offering his services throughout Montgomery County. After the passing of my Father, I maintained his business and then branched into lawn and landscaping. Clients from his business began using my services and I am proud to say many of them continue to use our services!” –Russell

“This company takes care of both of my properties at a very reasonable price and I would highly recommend them to anyone. Be sure to ask them about their other services ; over seeding, adding topsoil and many other services that they provide at very reasonable prices.”

"REC is communicative, informative, and friendly. I needed my gutters cleaned and they gave me a reasonable quote with no fuss or haggling. We set up the service call for the next day and I had only one minor request which they obliged. Russell also provided me photos and some professional advice/opinions on the state of my gutters and roof. Solid and reliable."

ERKAN P.

“After bad experiences with several local lawn services (the last one completely tore up the grass in my backyard), I found REC Lawns. They've done an amazing job. Last fall they did a yard cleanup -- leaf removal, mulching, and pruning. They did such a good job with the mulch that I didn't have to do much in the spring. The pruning was excellent -- this spring things bloomed better than they have in years. This year I had them lay sod in the front yard in an area where grass hasn't grown well in the past, and it's thriving. They're very careful when mowing, ensuring that it's even across the entire yard, including edging work. I couldn't be happier with the quality of work and the conscientiousness of their employees. ”

"A more professional, dependable company is hard to find. The crews are respectful and caring. We have used this service for over 20 years and have never had a problem. We truly appreciate REC Lawns."

DEBBIE T.

"I've been using REC Lawns for moving, spring, and fall cleanup and gutter cleaning for several years. In sum, they're great! The firm is very reliable, never missing my weekly spring/summer/fall mowing job, and consistently doing a thorough job. Mr. Cooper is so nice and very easy to work with. REC responds quickly to calls for ad hoc services, and always meets or exceeds my expectations. It's definitely worth giving them a try!"
