Garden beds and planting
Beds shaped to the house rather than stamped beside it, planted with stock that survives this hardiness zone and the deer that live in it. We plant for how the bed looks in five years, not just on install day.
Picture your yard the way you want it — then let's walk it together. Beds, planting, mulching, grading and drainage, quoted after a free consultation, because guessing at your property from a form would be guessing with your money.

Proper depth, proper edge, kept off the trunks and stems — mulch done right suppresses weeds and holds moisture; mulch done wrong rots what it touches. Refreshes and full installs.
Water pooling at the foundation, a soggy side yard, a laneway washing out — grading problems get worse every season they wait. We regrade, swale and direct water where it should go, which in this area often decides whether a basement stays dry.
The most common request we hear isn’t “make it bigger” — it’s “make it easier.” A garden can be designed to need less of you: perennials that come back on their own, mulch depths that actually suppress weeds, raised beds that spare your knees and your back, plants spaced for their full-grown size so you’re not pruning every weekend. If you love gardening, we’ll build you a garden to work in. If you’d rather enjoy it from a chair with a book, tell us that instead — it changes the design, and we’d rather know.
As honest ballparks for budgeting: bed refreshes and mulching usually land in the hundreds; new bed builds with planting commonly run into the low thousands depending on size and stock; grading and drainage work is quoted on-site because no two water problems are alike. The consultation is free and comes with a firm written number.
Use the form above — photos of the area help us arrive prepared.
We look, listen to what you want, and say plainly what is worth doing and what is not.
Scope, materials and price in writing. No allowances that balloon later.
Scheduled, communicated, and left cleaner than we found it.
Because auto-quoting a bed or a drainage fix without seeing grade, access and soil produces numbers that are wrong in both directions. The ballpark ranges above are for budgeting; the consultation gets you a real number, free.
For most residential beds and plantings we design as part of the job. Larger full-property plans are scoped in the consultation.
Spring and early fall for most stock in this zone. Booking a consultation in winter or early spring gets your project into the season's first build slots.
Gladly — and honestly, gardens we maintain look better in year three than gardens anyone walks away from. Ask about adding bed care to a lawn plan and the two get priced together.
