Frequently Asked Landscaping Questions
How long will the entire project take from start to finish?
Each job is unique, but we can give you a general timeline once the design has been created. We run very large crews so our installation time will be half the time it takes others.
What types of materials do you recommend for patios, walkways, and retaining walls, and why?
How you intend to use the space will primarily define the materials used.
Can you incorporate features like outdoor kitchens, fire pits, or water features into the design?
Yes — we can design and build these features to fit seamlessly with your overall yard layout.
Will my existing plants, trees, or structures be removed, relocated, or integrated into the new design?
We’ll review your current landscape and work with you to decide what stays, what moves, and what’s removed.
What warranties or guarantees do you offer for your work and materials?
Our warranty goes from 4 months for plants to 2 years on hardscapes. It is the first item listed on our agreement, so you have it in writing.
