Senske Services acquires Emerald Lawns

Senske Services, a provider of recurring residential lawn care, pest control and home services, has acquired Emerald Lawns. Headquartered in Austin, Texas, Emerald Lawns is a lawn care, tree care and pest control company. This strategic move unites two industry powerhouses and propels Senske's presence into the Southwest region.

Founded in 2006 by Mary and Luke Hawthorne, Emerald Lawns has built a reputation as the go-to provider of lawn care services in Austin, San Antonio, Temple and surrounding areas. After an extensive evaluation process, Emerald Lawns concluded that Senske was the perfect partner.

Luke Hawthorne will continue to lead the operations at the company.

"While selling Emerald was a tough decision it was made easier knowing that this acquisition will open doors and offer growth opportunities for my employees that I just could not have gotten for them on my own,” he says. “The sales process was seamless and I can sincerely say the whole Senske team was a pleasure to work with. I'm excited to see just how far we can take the continued expansion of Emerald Lawns with the combined resources of Senske and GTCR.  It's a new chapter for myself and Emerald but one I'm looking forward to."

"We are thrilled to welcome the 178 talented employees of Emerald into the ever-growing Senske family of brands," says Casey Taylor, CEO of Senske Services. "Having spent time with their team, it is evident how they have evolved into a well-established and trusted service provider in Texas."

Senske Services and Emerald Lawns will continue to operate as separate entities, retaining their respective brands, teams and service offerings.
