Landscape

    
​    Landscaping can make a home more attractive from the street, create a private oasis for relaxing, or direct the flow of water to keep your home from being damaged during the wet spring season. From formal gardens to woodland landscapes of native plants, there is something to suite everyone's style.

Landscape Services
  • Installation of Landscape Beds and Plants  -  Landscape beds often help ease the transition between the lawn and the foundation of the house while adding color and interest to the yard. Gardens can consist of flowers, shrubbery, trees, ground cover and stones.​​
  • Bed Edging - Bed edging made out of plastic, aluminum, bricks or stones can keep the lawn and gardens separate, creating a clean and orderly look.​
  • Grading and Grass Planting - New lawns can be created using seed or sod. For a lawn repair, top soil and seed are added to fill in patchy bare spots.​
  • Tear-outs - Sometimes plants can become far too overgrown or simply a change is needed. In this case, plants can be removed and hauled away. 
Before and After 
This backyard was cleared and graded. The area was prepped for grass planting from seed. These stone walls were rebuilt using material that was already there. Much of the flagstone was completely buried after years of erosion.
