About Us
| The evolution of Trim-A-Lawn | |
| MARCH 1966 | |
| Trim-A-Lawn started in a 2 door backyard garage with $1,800.00 in capital by William Roloph upon retirement from the U.S Navy. My original intent was to have a part time job. during my first year, we even had our phone turned off and our first FL sales tax report was for $12.00. | |
| 1967 | |
| My youngest son Larry Roloph started working after school and during summer vacation. I would work with customers during the day and Larry and I would work on equipment until 10-11 at night | |
| 1968 | |
| We made our first expansion, a cloths TV repair store which we converted to a garden center on Gulf beach Hyw next to our 2 car garage. We had squirrels living in the attic. Customers would come and feed them while buying mowers, fertilizer and seed. | |
| 1972 | |
| We expanded a 2nd time, we bought a 2 bay service station next to our converted TV repair shop. | |
| 1974 | |
| We expanded a third time, we demolished the 2 car garage , TV repair shop and evicted the squirrels. This was probably our biggest mistake. We built a 90x125 FT strand steel building and have been trying to get rid of the squirrels and our banker ever since. We converted the service station into a mower repair center. | |
| 1976 | |
| We incorporated added Landscaping, Irrigation, Hydro seeding and Garden center expansion. another mistake over diversified. | |
| 2000 | |
| we have a inventory of mower parts exceeding 500,000 different line items representing all major manufactures. Our buildings spans 16000 square feet sitting on 4 acres of property | |
| 2004 | |
| On October 14th Bill Roloph Sr Passed away leaving the company to his only son who was still working with him Larry Roloph | |
| 2011 | |
| We are making our first appearance on the internet to offer our customers other ways to do business with us. you will just have to check back and see how that is working for us. | |
