Meet Sam Tahour: Bringing Lawn Care and Community Together

Sam Tahour, owner of Lawn Doctor of Odessa, Oak Grove, Grain Valley, Blue Springs, and Lee’s Summit, is no stranger to hard work and hospitality. With over 31 years of experience in the service and hospitality industry, Sam has built a career on delivering excellence across multiple states in the Midwest. Now, he’s bringing that same dedication and customer-first mindset to his own business—helping homeowners achieve lush, healthy lawns while staying true to the values of community and service.

For the past 19 years, Sam and his wife, Tammy, have called this area home. Married for 42 years, they’ve built a beautiful, blended family of eight children, including both biological and adopted. With two children still at home (ages 10 and 11), life is never dull! When they’re not running a business or spending time with family, you’ll likely find Sam and Tammy outdoors—hunting, fishing, and enjoying the natural beauty of Missouri’s lakes, parks, and conservation areas.

A Business Built on Community

For Sam, Lawn Doctor isn’t just about lawn care—it’s about serving people. After decades in the corporate world, he saw an opportunity to make a direct impact in the lives of those around him. His mission? To treat every customer as an extension of his own family—not just a name on a service list.

That deep commitment to people-first service is reflected in his involvement with New Life Oak Grove, where he and his family have been active for over 18 years. They’re also passionate about foster care, adoption advocacy, and supporting missions—focusing on making a difference beyond business.

What Makes Lawn Doctor Different?

Unlike large, impersonal lawn care companies, Sam’s approach is personal. He believes in building relationships, not just treating lawns. His team is committed to providing expert lawn care with integrity, honesty, and a friendly, neighborly touch.

Whether you’re looking for greener grass, weed control, or pest solutions, Lawn Doctor of Odessa, Oak Grove, Grain Valley, Blue Springs, and Lee’s Summit is here to help—like family.

“Our customers are an extension of our family.”

That’s our promise.
