Our Story

Lawn Troopers® is a full-service residential lawn-care company with a unique beginning. Through years of dedication and focused refinement, we have grown to become a leader in the industry. Take a look at our story, and see how we developed a team with comprehensive skills that will provide unsurpassed lawn care for your property.

1998

Future business owner Matt Hill starts mowing neighbourhood lawns. He’s nine and has big dreams of building a successful lawn-care enterprise. Every summer he continues to knock on doors, hand out flyers, and keep his small but growing customer base happy.

2007

While completing a degree in engineering, Matt continues to be innovative by operating his lawn business during the summer months with the help of fellow student workers. This helps fund his, and his team’s, tuition.

2010

Lawn Troopers® becomes an incorporated company with three dependable crews. The team works hard to provide exceptional service and the business grows.

2012

After graduating from university, Matt focuses on business growth and refining the Lawn Troopers® brand. Additional systems are implemented to keep up with growing client demand. Lawn Troopers® expands its service area and becomes a full-service lawn care provider.

2014

Matt is awarded Canada’s Young Entrepreneur of the year, sponsored by Air Miles, and is featured in Canadian Business magazine. He receives invaluable mentorship from Kevin O’Leary, whose exceptional insight pays dividends for years to come. According to the judges, “Hill’s story speaks to tenacity, vision and entrepreneurship. He’s taken the essence of a ‘one-man show’ and developed it into a successful, money-making enterprise.”

2018

Lawn Troopers® is honoured to work with Mike Holmes and be featured on his TV shows. Mike Holmes states “not only have you helped my entire team out with all the demands and deadlines of working on my television series Holmes and Holmes, but you have also cared for my personal property with dedication and professionalism.”
