Expert Landscaping Design, Installation, and Maintenance
Serving Dubuque & Surrounding Areas
Landscape Design That Fits Your Property
Site analysis, plant selection, and functional planning
Every great landscape starts with a thoughtful plan. Our team begins with a consultation to understand how you use your outdoor space, then conducts an on-site assessment to evaluate sun exposure, soil health, drainage, existing vegetation, and architecture. From there, we develop a scaled design that balances beauty and function, with clear phasing options and a budget-aligned scope.
We build plant palettes with native and climate-adapted species for four-season interest, pollinator value, and lower maintenance needs. Hardscape elements—patios, walkways, retaining features, and lighting—are positioned for flow and safety. We plan grading, drainage solutions such as French drains or rain gardens, and optional drip zones to protect your investment and keep water where it belongs.
Built to last with proven materials and methods
Proper preparation is the foundation of a long-lasting landscape. We handle soil amendments, precise grading for positive drainage, bed definition, and clean edges. Turf areas are established via sod or seed, and trees and shrubs are planted with correct depth, root flare exposure, and soil backfill techniques. Where beneficial, we install drip lines, mulch beds, and steel or paver edging for a crisp, durable finish.
Our crews construct patios, walkways, and retaining features using compacted base layers, quality aggregates, and appropriate drainage behind load-bearing structures. We install paver edge restraints, geotextile where needed, and set stone with tight joints and proper slope. After completion, we perform a full site cleanup and walkthrough, review care instructions, and stand behind our workmanship.
Protect your investment year-round
Choose from maintenance packages that include mowing, trimming, edging, and debris removal to keep lawns healthy and tidy. Beds receive regular weeding, pre-emergent treatments as appropriate, and selective pruning to promote plant vigor and natural form.
Nutrient management starts with soil testing to guide fertilizer and pH correction. Seasonal services can include aeration and overseeding, compost topdressing, and mulch refreshing to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and enrich soil structure.
We offer spring and fall cleanups, storm debris removal, shrub rejuvenation, and perennial division on schedule. Irrigation startups and winterization, plus proactive monitoring for pests and disease with integrated, targeted treatments, help your landscape thrive in every season.
