Metro Detroit has trusted the Lucas name for over 50 years to transform ordinary outdoor spaces into extraordinary landscapes. Carrying on a legacy that began in the 1960s, Robert Lucas III, owner of Lucas Irrigation & Landscape, is building on a strong family foundation—with pride, purpose, and precision.
One Name, Many Services
Lucas Irrigation & Landscape is more than just a landscaping company. It’s a full-service outdoor solutions provider serving homeowners across a 40-mile radius from Brighton to Flat Rock and from Detroit to Chelsea; their expert crews deliver everything from
- Sprinkler system installation and repair
- Landscape lighting
- Custom landscape design and installation
- Sod installation
- Brick pavers for patios, walkways, and driveways
- Underground drainage and gutter systems
- Decks and fencing through exclusive partners
Whether it's new construction or a complete outdoor renovation, Lucas ensures every detail is handled seamlessly. "We help homeowners avoid juggling 6 or 7 different contractors. We take care of everything."
The Ideal Client? A Homeowner Who Cares
Lucas Landscaping caters to homeowners with properties valued between $300K and $1.2M. They prioritize working with people who live in their homes, are involved in the design process, and value face-to-face collaboration.
"We want clients who share our vision," says Robert. "We build relationships, not just backyards."
A Family Business with Heart
Robert's wife, Leah, handles all the office work, scheduling, billing, and customer coordination. Together, they keep communication simple and personal. "I give every customer my cell number," Robert says. "They don’t talk to a call center. They talk to me or my wife."
This hands-on, personalized service has earned them a growing loyal customer base, even after a Google review setback that wiped out years of 5-star ratings. Today, they’re rebuilding that digital reputation the same way they built the business—one satisfied customer at a time.
Looking Ahead with Purpose
With their sights set on growing the business strategically, Lucas Landscaping is scaling back volume to increase quality. Instead of completing 300 jobs per year, they’re focusing on 75 high-touch, high-quality projects annually.
"We’re not chasing volume. We want to do each job the right way, with one crew, and make sure it’s perfect."
They’re also leaning into services like drainage systems and French drains, where Robert sees a significant need in the market. "There’s a void out there for real drainage experts, and we already have the tools and know-how."
Final Word: Trust Built Over Time
At Lucas Irrigation & Landscape, the foundation is trust. From the materials they choose to the communication they prioritize, everything revolves around doing right by the customer.
"We show up when we say we will. We don’t cut corners. And we don’t stop until you’re satisfied. That’s what makes the Lucas name what it is."
