Our Story

Built on Hard Work, Driven by Results

Zilla Outdoor Services was built from the ground up — one job at a time, one satisfied client at a time.

Meet the Founder

Larbi Sobhani

More than four years ago, Larbi Sobhani loaded up a truck, grabbed his mower, and set out with one simple goal: do the job right, every single time. A Howard County native, Larbi founded Zilla Outdoor Services in Dayton, MD, and built it the old-fashioned way — through hard work, honest pricing, and the kind of results that get neighbors talking.

What started as a one-man operation has grown into a trusted local crew of three to four part-time team members, but you will still find Larbi out on the job site working alongside his team. He is the kind of owner who notices when an edge is not quite right, when a mulch bed needs one more pass, or when a client's property could benefit from something they had not considered. That detail-obsessed approach is what sets Zilla apart.

Every project Zilla takes on — from weekly mowing to full hardscape installations — gets the same level of care and attention. No cutting corners, no half-finished work. Just consistent, professional results that have earned a 5.0 Google rating and a client list built almost entirely on word of mouth.
