Landscaping Design and Installation
A well thoughtout landscape plan can help you create an aesthetically pleasing landscape that is also functional and sustainable. Even if you don’t plan on landscaping your entire property all at once, developing a master plan can save you time and money, serving as a blueprint for a cohesive design that can be effectively implemented in phases. Our design process starts with a detailed review of your existing landscape and a discussion of how you plan to use each area of your yard. Based on this information we create a design brief outlining the scope of the project. Guided by the design brief, we develop several conceptual plans which we review and refine with you until we arrive at a final design. The final design is then rendered as a master plan ready to be implemented in full or multiple phases.
Planting
Trees, shrubs and perennials are the heart of any landscape. Renovating an existing landscape, or thoughtfully starting from scratch, can breathe new life into a space. Our first step is to help you establish your prefered planting style. Do you prefer a modern design or a more tradtional style? Are there particular plants that you like or dislike? We then use our years of experience and expertise to select plants that will paint the right picture and be well suited for your particular site conditions. Is your yard sunny or shady? Do we need to use deer resistant plants? How much maintenance or you willing to commit to? Finally we combine the plants using the core elements of design (mass, form, line, color and texture) to bring your landscape alive.
Hardscaping/Outdoor Living
Patios, walkways, and walls are the “bones” of your landscape. The size, shape, and alignment of these hardscape features act as the structure that ties a space together. When designing a hardscape our first step is to listen to your wants and needs. How do you plan to use the space? How often do you entertain and for how many people? Do you prefer natural stone or a manufactured product? What special features would you like to incorporate into the space? Do you want a fire pit or fire place? How about a grill island or full outdoor kitchen. Once your design is finalized we ensure that it is built on a solid foundation by following detailed and documented processes so that your investment stands the test of time.
Lighting
Landscape lighting transforms your hardscapes and plantings when the sun goes down and extends your use and enjoyment of your landscaping and outdoor living areas into the evening hours. Landscape lighting doesn’t just provide functionality and safety by illuminating dark patios and pathways. An artistically designed lighting system can greatly enhance your property by highlighting architectural features and specimen plantings. We only install highly efficient LED fixtures and can even give you the ability to set the mood by controlling your lighting with a smart controller and an app on your phone.
Fencing
We install many different types of fencing to meet your functional or aesthetic needs. Maybe you need a vinyl or cedar privacy fence to enclose your backyard. Maybe you need deer fencing to stop them from damaging your landscaping. Or maybe you want an ornamental fence that will act as a design element while organizing your space. We can meet all of these needs as part of a larger project or as a stand alone job.
