Our landscape designs are a compilation of the ideas, desires, and needs of our customers which is put together with our abilities to create a plan for an elegant, functional, and productive landscape.
While designing we pay attention to critical aspects such as proper plant varieties, placement and spacing, exposure issues with full sun or shaded areas, dealing with ground qualities of both wet or dry extremes, and what can be done in these situations. We make sure to take into consideration the amount of maintenance needed in the future, using landscape material to enhance your home and hardscaping, and damage caused by deer which is one of the fastest growing issues in our area.
Hardscaping is an ever growing trend. Our ICPI certified crews use all of the latest techniques and
equipment to build a wide variety of hardscaping projects which include retaining walls, walkways,
patios, and driveways. Just like we do with our landscape designs, we aim to blend our experience and abilities with our customers priorities to provide an attractive and functional hardscape design.
Our projects are built to last and of course follow the standards and specifications of industry leading hardscaping product manufacturers.
