Core Landscape Services

Landscape Design & Installation

Custom landscape design brings vision to life. We assess your property, understand your goals, and create a detailed plan tailored to Washington County conditions.

Installation follows immediately. We handle plant selection, spacing, soil prep, and hardscaping integration. Every element is positioned for function and beauty. Our team ensures plantings thrive in local climate zones and drainage patterns.

Retaining Wall Construction

Retaining walls manage slope erosion and add definition to yards throughout Washington County.

We design walls for proper drainage and structural integrity. Material choices range from stone and block to timber, depending on aesthetic and load requirements. Each wall handles seasonal water runoff and local soil pressure without failure.

Paver Patio Installation

Patios create outdoor living space. Paver installation in Washington County requires proper base prep and slope for freeze-thaw durability.

We excavate, compact, and set pavers to exact grade. Sand joints lock stones firmly. Finished patios withstand winter weather and ground movement common to the region.

Paver Walkway Installation

Walkways connect yards safely and guide foot traffic. Paver paths blend function with curb appeal in Washington County homes.

Installation starts with accurate base layers. We set pavers level and stable to prevent trip hazards and standing water. Materials and width suit your property style and use patterns.

Site Preparation & Grading

Grading and site prep form the foundation of every landscape project in Washington County.

We remove old material, level ground, and create proper slopes for drainage. Compacting soil prevents settling. Site prep done right eliminates future settling, pooling, and erosion problems. This phase is critical to project longevity.

Erosion Control & Plant Services

Seeding & Erosion Control

Bare soil erodes fast, especially on slopes. Seeding and erosion control stabilize ground immediately after grading work in Washington County.

We select seed mixes suited to local sun and soil. Straw mat or tackifier holds seed in place during establishment. Proper watering schedules ensure germination before Iowa winter.

Straw Mat Installation

Straw mat protects newly seeded areas. Installation across Washington County helps seed survive spring rains and wind.

We roll and anchor mat securely to prevent slipping. Mat biodegrades as grass establishes. This simple step dramatically increases germination rates and reduces bare patches.

Plant Installation & Mulch

Trees, shrubs, and perennials define landscape character. We select plants proven for Washington County hardiness zones.

Installation includes proper hole depth, backfill, and mulch layer. Mulch retains soil moisture, moderates temperature, and suppresses weeds. Spacing and positioning account for mature size and light requirements.

Pruning, Trimming & Tree Removal

Regular pruning keeps trees and shrubs healthy and shaped. We remove dead branches, thin crowns, and remove hazard trees across Washington County properties.

Proper cuts prevent disease and promote growth. Removal includes stump grinding and debris cleanup. Strategic pruning opens sightlines and lets light reach lower plantings.

Hardscape & Drainage Finishing

Finishing touches complete landscape projects. River rock, decorative curbing, and edge treatments add polish and definition.

We install bullet edgers and V edging to separate lawn from beds. River rock accents planting areas while improving drainage. Decorative curbing frames driveways and garden borders. Underground tiling manages water flow away from foundations—critical in Washington County's seasonal runoff.
