OakLawn is a family-owned, local business founded in 2001 by Geoff Jackson. Built on the principles of creating beautiful landscapes and providing reliable service, homeowners and businesses trust us year after year.
Who We Are
Caring for Your Landscape Since 2001
Every landscape tells a story, and so does the team caring for it. Oaklawn Landscaping began as a small family operation built on steady workmanship, thoughtful service, and a genuine commitment to our community. Today, homeowners and commercial property managers across Columbia and the surrounding region trust OakLawn for dependable landscape care grounded in strong values and long-term relationships.
Our company was founded by Geoff Jackson as a modest operation that grew organically because customers appreciated a team that consistently showed up, communicated clearly, and treated every property with genuine attention. That steady growth enabled us to expand into a full-service company, supporting residential and commercial clients throughout Maryland and Washington, D.C. We would not still be here without a track record of reliable service and satisfied clients who continue recommending us.
From routine lawn care to large landscape management plans, our team approaches every job with pride. We have also earned recognition for providing floral displays for large events such as the Preakness Stakes. It reflects our ability to handle detailed, high-expectation projects while still staying rooted in the community we serve daily.

- Clear communication – From scheduling to project updates, we stay in touch so you always know what is happening on your property.
- Consistent workflows – Our crews follow a structured, reliable process built around planning, evaluating, and carrying out work with steady attention to detail.
- Long-term relationship focus – We want to be a partner you can count on season after season, not a short-term service you rarely hear from.

- Free, upfront estimates – We make it easy to begin planning by offering clear, accurate estimates before any work begins.
