▾Guelph’s student-built lawn care company Founded in Guelph. Built by hand.
Yardex was founded in 2020 by Carter Florence — a Guelph local who started at 12 years old with a rake, a yard-waste bag, and a determination to build something of his own. Today it’s a 5-person crew serving 50 lawns every week, featured in GuelphToday and recognized with a 2024 Quality Business Award.
Yardex is a local, owner-run, student-built lawn care company. We maintain Guelph properties every week with commercial equipment and small-company care. We’re not a franchise and we don’t do lock-in — clients stay because the lawn looks great and the reply comes fast.

The Lawn Process
Every cut. Every edge. Every detail.
-
01 / Cutting
Precision in every pass.
We mow with a 30-inch Toro TurfMaster commercial mower. Its wide twin-blade deck covers more lawn in every pass and lays down clean, straight stripes.
-
02 / Trimming
No detail overlooked.
Next, the STIHL FS 111 R string trimmer handles everything the mower can’t reach: around trees, along fences and garden beds, and beside the house.
-
03 / Sidewalk & garden bed edging
Clean lines. Every time.
We turn the STIHL FS 111 R on its side and edge your sidewalk and garden beds vertically, cutting a crisp, defined line between the lawn and everything around it.
-
04 / Blowing
We leave your property spotless.
Finally, a STIHL BR 600 backpack blower clears every hard surface — driveway, sidewalk, walkways and steps — so no clippings are left behind.
-
05 / The finished result
Your lawn. At its best.
Straight stripes, trimmed corners, sharp edges and clean surfaces. Every visit.
