​
Our owner, Mike Rice, began his career as a heavy equipment operator for Flynn Brothers when he was 18 years old. By the age of 20, he was running a multi-million dollar Sand Pit facility on Deering Road.
Mike Rice’s leadership experience in the construction industry enabled him to establish his own business, Rice Lawn Care, LLC, in December 2007. Though it started as a small grass cutting operation with 2 employees, our family business has grown into a multi-faceted company with 20 employees and office staff.
Rice Lawn Care, LLC is now a full service maintenance company including grass cutting, landscaping installation, lawn treatments, bush hogging, snow removal and finish grade work for both residential and commercial properties. Our bush hogging experience includes several large 100+ acre areas for site construction. We currently have 5 full mowing crews that are fully equipped with mowers, blowers, weed eaters, etc. to take care of all your lawn care needs.
Currently, Rice Lawn Care, LLC works with many companies in Louisville and the surrounding areas to maintain their landscaping as well as maintaining their property at large. Some of our current clients include Waste Management, FedEx, McKesson, CBRE and Republic Bank. We are a member of the Bullitt County Chamber of Commerce, and we have achieved a A+ Rating from the BBB.
In addition to landscaping and property maintenance, the company also provides excavating and site work. At Rice Construction Services, LLC we have a team of experienced operators, and we maintain a variety of dozers, skid steers, dump trucks, and excavators to handle a wide array of construction jobs. We collaborate with several major construction companies in the area, including Flynn Brothers and Louisville Paving, for site work, finish grade work and landscaping installation on large projects. Rice Lawn Care, LLC has also partnered with Redwing Ecological Services to complete several major wetland projects. During our Bullitt County wetlands project, we planted over 9,000 trees!
​
As a local business, we believe it is important to give back to our community. We value our secenic outdoor spaces, so we are involved in fundraising for The Parklands of Floyds Fork and sponsor their annual 5K race. As an Ironman triathalon competitor, I also believe in helping our children stay active, so we help support extracurricular activities in our local schools.
​
We are a famly business with an old-fashioned work ethic. From the heat of summer to those icy winter days, Rice Lawn Care will be there for you. With our meticulous attention to detail and the dedication of our knowledgeable staff, we will work closely with you to make sure your landscape is outstanding and well-maintained through every season.
Sincerely,
Mike Rice
Rice Lawn Care Owner
