Thirty Years of Excellence in Lawn and Landscape Maintenance
As Ground Crew Service enters its 30th year in business, the Wisconsin-based full-service landscape management company continues to thrive on the principles that have defined its success: exceptional customer service, a deep commitment to its employees, and active support for the communities it serves. Founded in 1995 by husband-and-wife team Michael and Tasa Stavropoulos, the company has grown into a trusted name across Brookfield, Elm Grove, New Berlin, Lake Country, and the greater Waukesha County area.
From its inception, Ground Crew Service has set itself apart with a steadfast dedication to quality. Specializing in recurring services such as lawn mowing, fertilization, landscape maintenance, and seasonal cleanups, the company has built strong, lasting relationships with its customers. In an industry where consistency and reliability are paramount, Ground Crew Service has exceeded expectations, earning a reputation for meticulous attention to detail and unwavering professionalism.
“Providing amazing service isn’t just a motto for us—it’s a way of life,” says Michael Stavropoulos. “From the beginning, we knew that building trust with our clients and investing in our employees would be the key to long-term success.”
A significant portion of Ground Crew Service’s business comes from repeat customers, many of whom have been with the company for years. Whether it’s ensuring a pristine lawn through regular maintenance or preparing properties for changing seasons, the team approaches every job with precision and care.
Equally important to the company’s success is its approach to employee relations. Ground Crew Service fosters a workplace culture that values teamwork, professional growth, and a family-like atmosphere. Employees are not just workers—they are part of the extended Ground Crew Service family. This philosophy has led to a high level of job satisfaction and retention, which in turn benefits customers by ensuring experienced, knowledgeable crews maintain their properties year after year.
“When you treat your employees with respect and give them opportunities to grow, they take ownership of their work,” says Tasa Stavropoulos. “That commitment translates into better service, which our customers recognize and appreciate.”
Beyond business, Ground Crew Service is deeply invested in the communities it serves. The company actively donates to and volunteers at local schools, churches, and charities, reinforcing its belief in giving back.
As the company celebrates this milestone anniversary in 2025, Michael and Tasa reflect on their journey with gratitude. What started as a small operation has flourished into a well-respected business serving multiple communities, thanks to a simple yet powerful commitment to excellence.
Looking ahead, Ground Crew Service remains dedicated to maintaining its high standards while embracing new opportunities to enhance customer experiences. Whether through the adoption of environmentally friendly lawn care practices or the expansion of services to meet evolving client needs, the company is poised for continued success.
For those seeking a trusted partner in landscape management, Ground Crew Service stands as a shining example of what three decades of dedication can achieve. As they step into their next chapter, Michael and Tasa Stavropoulos remain as committed as ever to their mission: delivering top-tier service while treating customers and employees like family.
