ABOUT OUR COMPANY
THE VAN DAME DIFFERENCE
Our attention to detail is what sets us apart from other lawn and landscape companies. We respect your neighbors by turning off our equipment as you walk by and waving as we slowly drive by. Before we leave, we’ll make sure you’re satisfied, blow off all decks and patios, and make sure gates are shut and secure. Your professionals at Van Dame Outdoor Maintenance will arrive in a clean truck with clean equipment.
OWNER
JOE VAN DAME
The idea for founding Van Dame Outdoor Maintenance has roots long in the past. As a young man of 12, Joseph Van Dame began mowing lawns in his neighborhood, learning the principles of hard work and how to earn an honest wage. He continued to learn the value of hard work through positions at the Lafayette Parks Department and St. Elizabeth Hospital in high school and at Purdue University following his graduation from Jefferson High School in 2005. While working for Purdue, he learned the art of management and the importance of reliability.
In 2012 at the age of 26, Joseph decided to return to his earliest roots and founded Van Dame Outdoor Maintenance. He brought with him the experience of management and the principles of honesty and dependability to his new business, beginning with lawn care services but rapidly expanding to meet the needs of his customers. Joseph's guiding principle and personal philosophy is that hard work, determination, and honesty will always prevail. He brings that view to his company, ensuring that he and his staff abide by those principles to provide the best customer service experience possible.
In his personal time Joseph enjoys spending time outdoors and being with his wife, Bridgette, and his children, Jocelyn and Hunter.
