Lightning is a full-service landscape contractor with two locations serving both the Kansas City and Lake of the Ozarks areas. After working in the lawn care industry for more than a decade, Chris Edin formed Lightning Landscape & Irrigation in 1994 with the belief that there was a better way. Attention to detail, customer service, and dedication have fueled our growth. In 1999 our growth led to a new 5000 square foot facility constructed in Shawnee, Kansas. In 2004 a Gravois Mills, Missouri location was opened to serve customers needs around the Lake of the Ozarks.

Typically, an irrigation system is a precise, planned arrangement of sprinkler heads to water all of your lawn and sometimes the landscape plants. Most often it is controller by an electronic timer. Due to water flow and pressure limitations the array of sprinkler heads must be divided into 'zones' or 'stations'. Timely watering of the lawn and landscape is very important during dry periods. Lack of water leads to a poor looking lawn for a number of reasons. One thing to note is that landscape plants need less water than the lawn does.

A great Kansas City landscape design not only compliments the architecture of a home, but can give you many other benefits as well. A well designed and installed landscape can address proper drainage, lower energy bills, provide home security, add curb appeal and safety for the structure and its' residents.

As one of the highest rated landscaping companies in Kansas City, our goal is to increase your property's value, create a usable outdoor living space and meet your expectations regarding all other aspects of the project.

Lightning provides a multitude of services to help with drainage problems around your property. Improper drainage can result in your turf and landscape areas being unhealthy and un-usable.
