Services
Design & Installation
If you’re planning a new space or making major changes to your existing yard, the individual parts need to work together from the beginning. We design and install complete outdoor concepts including your garden areas, lawns, planting, hardscape and outdoor living spaces. Our design-build approach keeps your design and construction working together from the start.
Retaining With Block & Boulder
If your property is sloped or has significant changes in elevation, retaining walls can help manage the grade while controlling soil and water. We build retaining walls using block, boulder and natural stone selected to suit your property, terrain and project.
Site Grading & Drainage
If water collects around your home, in your beds or low areas of your property, grading and drainage may need to be corrected before any other work can be completed. We provide site grading and drainage solutions designed to direct water away from the areas where standing or moving water can cause problems.
Paver Patios & Walkway Installation
If uneven or awkward areas of your yard make it difficult to create practical spaces for patios, seating or access, pavers can turn those areas into stable, usable surfaces. We build paver patios and walkways with the excavation, base preparation and grading needed to create a finished surface that works with the rest of your home.
Garden Maintenance & Renovations
You don’t always need a new yard to for us to help improve your outdoor space. We can renovate your existing gardens, update planting areas, install new hedges and provide ongoing garden maintenance to keep your property looking its best.
Lawn & Irrigation Systems
Your lawn, planting beds and gardens can have different watering needs, especially when sun exposure, slopes and soil conditions vary across your property. We install irrigation systems designed around those areas to provide practical, targeted watering where you need it. We can also install synthetic turf when a low-maintenance lawn is the better choice for your property, with drainage considered as part of the installation.

Planning Your Project
Every landscaping project starts with a consultation to discuss what you want to change, how you use your outdoor space and any problems you want to solve. We assess your property, including access, grades, drainage, existing areas and the conditions that may affect the work.
From there, we can discuss suitable options and provide an estimate based on the work involved. For larger jobs, we plan the different parts of the project together, so that all the individual tasks can be completed in the right order.
Residential & Commercial Properties
Some of the work required around your property can involve more than improving how your yard looks. Slopes, drainage, access, existing gardens and how you want to use your outdoor space can all affect the design and construction.
Whether you’re making detailed improvements, renovating an existing garden or planning a complete project, we provide residential and commercial solutions. We plan your project around your property so grading, hardscape, planting, lawns, irrigation and other features work together as one finished outdoor space.
Why Homeowners Work With Us
We are a licensed and insured with over 20 years of experience. We are based in Crofton and work with homeowners throughout Duncan and the surrounding communities.
Instead of treating each part of your project as a separate service, our approach brings design, build and maintainance together. We work with your existing property, terrain, drainage and outdoor space to create a result that is practical, durable and built for the conditions of your site.
Result’s Built for Local Terrain
If your property has slopes, rocky soil, changes in elevation or drainage challenges, those conditions need to be considered before construction begins.
Rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach, we design your needs around the conditions of your property. We plan grading, drainage, retaining structures, planting areas, lawn and hardscape together so your finished outdoor space works as one complete outdoor space.
