Mother Nature is no Match for this Woman of all Trades

 

            Not only is she a wife, a mother, and a middle school teacher, but Jacquelyn Lawton is also the woman behind the wildly successful JTL Landscaping company, based in Foster, RI.

Over the past ten days, parts of New England have been bombarded with nearly four feet of snow, nearly crippling much of the area. While most New Englanders were buying bread, milk and batteries, Jacquelyn Lawton was  preparing their company and employees to be able to meet the needs of over 100 customers, including both residential and local businesses.

“Impeccable planning is the key to ensuring customer satisfaction”, says Jacquelyn Lawton, who balances her time as the owner of JTL, with being a full time reading teacher at Ferri Middle School in Johnston, RI, being a wife, and a mother of two beautiful children.

Not only does JTL strive to satisfy their customers’ needs, but they also make it a point to make sure the needs of their crew are met.

Christopher Lawton, manager at JTL says “Jacquelyn, and everyone at JTL always do a fantastic job making sure the equipment is at the appropriate sites, including machines and fuel, in addition to materials such as ice melt, sand, and salt being well stocked.”

Ryan Mitchell, JTL company manager says, “It was a long and tiring 10 days, but in the end, JTL was a success and lived up to the quality that customers have come to expect. This could not have been accomplished without Jacquelyn, her husband Steven, and the entire JTL crew working together towards a common goal.”

Jacquelyn began JTL in 2008 in Foster, RI and the business has been steadily growing with a consistent amount of new customers regularly seeking their services. In addition to snow and ice management, JTL also manages four other companies: JTL Landscaping, Organic Lawn Company, Mulch RI, and their newest company, Sitescapes. JTL claims that “their people, their services, and their prices will truly exceed your expectations” and you do not have to take their word for it, just ask their customers.

“Jacquelyn, and her company, JTL are not only reliable, but their customer service is above the rest. I can always be certain that my lot will be plowed in a timely manner, and with great attention to detail”, says Kaitlin Dinwoodie of Foster, RI and JTL customer since 2011. “I have recommended them to many of my family and friends, and they have all had nothing but positive experiences with the company.”

In fact, even as I was conducting this interview with Lawton, she received two phone calls from satisfied customers, thanking JTL for their exceptional services. “Most customers reported they were very satisfied with the quality of the service, especially considering the significant amount of snow we received over the course of the two paralyzing storms” said Lawton.

Lawton, an avid fan of reading, exercising, and spending time with her children, rarely finds time for herself. “I

am just happy that within both of my occupations I am able to have the sense of giving back to the community. That is what truly makes me happy,” says Lawton.
